happy (belated) birthday aunt katie!

Elliott has gotten very into having people pick him up lately and use them as a vehicle to get what he wants or where he wants to go. For instance, he loves airplanes and whenever he hears one flying overhead, he goes to the nearest adult and demands to be lifted up as though getting four feet higher off the ground will make him able to reach up and pull it out of the air. When Katie and Sofia came to visit last week, Elliott was very excited to have another baby around to poke and also another adult around to do his bidding. Right when they got in the door, Elliott walked over to Katie and signaled "up." However, since she's not much taller than him, when she lifted him up, he realized that she wasn't going to be useful in his plot to snatch planes from the sky. He still got her to give him cookies and snacks though, so in his eyes, she's a keeper. Happy Birthday Katie. Sorry this blog entry is a little late. Here's another video of Sofia, Elliott & Katie. Note again the poking of Sofia, the adorable way she looks at the camera, and how Elliott turns to Katie as if sharing an inside joke.
