Elliot - age two and three quarters


Elliot has grown up a lot over the last few months. Our battles used to be us asking him to do something, or to cease doing something and then him yelling no and screaming. Now, depending on how awake he is, he participates more in intelligent debate. He even negotiates with us now. Of course we rarely give an inch, but it makes it much more entertaining for us.
Toilet training is going really well. He is very proud of wearing underwear now instead of diapers all the time.
His favourite food has now become peanut butter. Mom is finding lots of creative and nutritious ways to eat peanut butter for his snacks.
His creations, whether the material be paint, chalk, blocks or playdough, have become much more detailed and imaginative. He used to simply build towers as high as he could, or copy his dad. Now he builds Old Lady (read Old Navy) stores and fancy houses.
He runs a two buck store in his free time.
Mom has been taking him to a couple summer preschool programs in Cloverdale which Elliot has been very excited about.
