Merry Christmas

!0 Weeks

Elliott the snow bear. Utah got a lot colder than Arizona, but thank goodness for the squirrel suit.

It won't be long before Elliott is bigger than Scout. I think she is dreading that day.

We'd thought Elliott could try out his new saucer that Amie and Kellie's kids used. Of course Eli is a little on the small side, so we had to prop him up with a couple of blankets. He loved the idea of being sat up, but he wasn't too sure about the odd toys surrounding him. Or maybe it was the fact that Scout was trying to attack and nibble on his energetic feet underneath. 

7 Weeks and Counting

 Here's our little court jester. Shockingly enough, Eli didn't mind wearing the costume even though he had little say in the matter. Although I still think he looked more like a giant flower.

 Scout decided to help give Elliott a bath. She was just glad that it wasn't her in the water.

Happy Halloween, Boo!

1 1/2 Weeks Old

 Sportin' his new kicks. Unfortunately, he is never awake long enough to get out to show them off.

 He finally woke up for a few minutes and then he was out again. At least he was having a good dream.

Elliott Bowen Wood- 9/14/2012

Elliott was 8 lbs and 21 inches long

My mom got a flight to Arizona as soon as she heard that we were getting induced. Elliott was able to wait long enough to allow her to get there for his birth. She made it with an hour to spare.

 He got a little bit of a bruise on the back of his head from delivery. This little bruise caused him to stay in the hospital for a couple of extra days under the bilirubin lights. But it's already gone away and he is doing great.

Adam didn't get much sleep the first night on the extra comfortable chair pull out bed, so he snuck a few minutes on the bed the next morning.

He's definitely got big feet and toes that could be mistaken as fingers.

 He doesn't have much hair, but what he does have is strawberry blonde and extremely fuzzy.
