Go bananas, the big blue ball, my trip to Chicago and other punny titles missed due to bad blogger etiquette.

Hi everyone!

My mom's been really busy at work, so I'm sorry that you have been waiting so long for new pictures and news about me, Elliott Milton.

She's still really busy, but she told me that she is really good at pumping my mommy milk with one hand these days, so she got my pictures downloaded today. But there isn't a whole lot of time to type.

Here are LOTS of pictures. From the beginning of April until YESTERDAY! Yes, yesterday!

Mommy told me to tell you a few things:

• Can you tell when Mommy got her new camera for work and started using me as her test subject to figure out how it works?
• I got a big blue ball. It rocks my world. Almost as much as my kitty, Runa. Mommy says I never would have been motivated to move quickly if I wasn't trying to catch our kitty. Now I get where I want to go FAST.
• Where I want to go is usually exactly where Mommy hopes I won't go trying to get the thing that I shouldn't get, or so Mommy says.
• You'll notice Mommy has her hair pulled back in all of the pictures. This is because I love to pull hair. This may also be why the kitty won't let me catch her.
• I got to go to Chicago and play with my Auntie Melanie and Uncle Rob and all the rest of my family. It was cool. My Pap put me in this cool carrier and we watched baseball, whatever that is.
• There's a picture of my cool ride about mid-way down. It's a minivan, but Daddy says it's still cool because it's red.
• I weigh 18 pounds now and am growing out of my 6/9 month tops. However, I have short legs, so my 6 month pants still fit some of the time. My Mommy says I should blame Daddy for that.
• I'm 28 inches long, so just 2 more inches and I'll need to sit in my new carseat in my cool ride. No more sleeping in my carseat and being transported around while sleeping. Mommy says this stinks.
• Mommy and Daddy got bikes for Christmas. They are cool. Pap and Gram bought me a seat for Mommy's bike and I sit in it while she makes things go by quickly. It's pretty cool. Except for that stupid plastic thing that falls off my head and almost makes Mommy crash into Daddy.
• I love paper. I have some toys, but really, I want paper.
• I L-O-V-E LOVE bananas. I make mmmm, mmmm and smacking sounds with my lips when Mommy gives them to me. Sometimes I think I'm getting something delicious like bananas or pears and instead there is green goo that tastes like. I don't know, but it's not sweet like mommy milk or applesauce.
• No teeth yet, but lots of drooling and gnawing.
• I'm a pretty happy dude these days. I know my name and love to play and splash in the bathtub and scootch around and try to catch the kitty and eat my food and sometimes spit it at Mommy.
• I love what Mommy calls "Saturday." This means I get to play with Mommy AND Daddy all day. It rocks.

Mommy says she'll try to be a better blogger.
