Lately

Lately Elliot's been walking around with things like this large screw in his mouth. Also in his mouth seem to be a few new words. He's been using please (peas), down (dow), mama (mama), monkey (mon), and hi - which is pretty darn cute when he randomly greets people in Walmart, and on the street, and in the grocery store, and anywhere else he feels moved to be friendly. "Bye" is also a big deal in his life. He says goodbye to his toys downstairs as we go upstairs. He almost always says goodbye to the dog when we leave the house. He said goodbye to the socks the other day as they went into the drawer...
