Dear Elliot,
Okay, so I'll admit, I'm horrible at keeping up with my letters to you. Sorry, son. Here's a recap of what has happened over the last 3 months.
Obviously on May 22, 2013, you turned one. It was a joyous day. We celebrated by having Grandma Carolyn come to California for a week. We had your birthday party on May 24, 2013. You had so many friends there! It was a rock star party, because well, you're our little rock star! You love daddy's drum sticks. They are most definitely your favorite toy.
We made a trip to Utah for two weeks. Yes, another trip to Utah. Get used to it. You seemed to love it. We played with cousins, grandmas, aunts, uncles, and papa.
As of today, you are only walking when you decide you want to. I know you know how, and you can totally do it, you just have no desire to. You'd rather crawl. I'm good with whatever makes you happy.
You don't say much. A few uh-oh's here and there and occasionally a mama or dada. I think Scarlet does most of the talking for you, especially since she never seems to stop talking.
We still adore you. You are the snuggliest baby I've ever seen. Your daddy loves it. So do I. You are so fun and I'm so grateful that I get to watch you grow each and every day. You'll never cease to amaze me.
Mom
P.S. I have a confession to make. I really miss our midnight rendezvous. I miss holding you while you would sleep/eat. I was the only one who could soothe you back to sleep. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad you're sleeping through the night, it's just those little things that I miss. Maybe every once in a while you could fall asleep while snuggling?
