Mimi Time

My mom came to visit! It was great having someone around who is as obsessed with Elliot as we are. It was fun having her around now that Elliot can do more than sleep and poop. I'm glad that was able to fly out and make some memories with us and our little guy.

Exhibit A: We took him to the pool!

His belly is coming along nicely

This was about as excited as he got. He tolerated being in the water. We're hoping to work him up to a "love it" level by the time we go to the beach this summer.

Some nice drool action going on

That hat was too big and kept falling in his face

My two favorite guys

I love this one

What a great Aaron

Elliot has started sticking his tongue out all the time. We call it his lizard face. 

Exhibit B: Reading books
I tried reading him a book a while ago, but he wasn't really into it. I don't think he really realized that I wanted him to look at the thing I was shoving in his face. But now, just a few weeks later, he was TOTALLY into it. Maybe it was Mimi's magic touch. 

So focused on that book!

Tongue out per usual

"I LOVE READING!!"

Mom and I went to see the San Xavier Mission while Aaron was at work on Monday. Part of the museum was closed for renovations which was a bummer, but it was still cool to see. We took one of the short tours. It is such a beautiful building. I had to fend off a few overly friendly dogs who wanted to share our fry bread burritos (which were surprisingly difficult to eat), but other than that it was a lovely time.

Mom also came to Zumba with me on Tuesday morning before catching her flight home. It was so fun having her around! I love my mom!
