Elliot is definitely an 18 month old little boy---throwing fits, terrorizing his sister, climbing everywhere and into everything that he shouldn't be. He's like a little puppy--so much energy and mischief. It was chilly and windy today but Elliot was going crazy inside-tackling and trying to wrestle with Delaney, so we headed out to the park to get some of his energy out.

This week, Delaney started to notice my belly. She told me--Mommy, you have a big belly--but Daddy has a really big belly. She also pulled up my shirt this morning and shouted at my belly--Baby, you stay in there, don't you come out! She's lovely, huh?

Yesterday, Delaney and Elliot were entertaining themselves for--oh, about 3 minutes, and I grabbed the chance to flip through a magazine. Delaney quickly noticed that she was not receiving 100% of my attention, ran over to me and shouted---Mommy, you need to take care of me!!! I guess that I was slacking off on the job.
