So I know this post is hugely belated, and Elliott is doing all kinds of new tricks now and must weigh a few more pounds as well, but at least I'm getting it on here. We celebrated Elliott's first birthday back in January, and I think he had a perfect day. We didn't do anything fancy, just made sure to give him extra attention, let him feed himself some cake, played some chase on all fours, and got out our especially baby toys (as opposed to having him just play with whatever the big kids have gotten out) and I think it fulfilled all his birthday dreams. He really did smile and laugh a lot, which was so fun to see. He is such a happy, cheerful baby. He loves his siblings, loves interacting and playing games, still snuggles a little bit, is a great sleeper, and has lots of lovely chubs to squeeze. We just love having him in our family, and it is the sweetest thing to see his bright, smiling, little face in the morning as I get him out of his crib. He has begun to say quite a few words now too, and walks a few steps here and there, although it is not his main form of transportation yet.
We love you Elliott! Happy Birthday handsome boy!
