Elliott had his 2 year well-child appointment this morning. He is now 33 1/4 inches tall and 25.4 pounds (around the 25th % for both). The doctor was happy with how much more he's talking now than at 18 months. He is starting to put two words together, like "Bite peeze" (bite please), "Ow, hurt", and point to most of his body parts when you ask him to. He does call his privates a "ball"... hard to keep a straight face on that one. He also said some bigger words this week like dinosaur and seashell. Soon we won't be able to shut him up! I think having his sisters at school has been good for him. They aren't home to talk for him.

Gus puts up with alot... but he loves it!
