Fun with Aunt Lisa!

Elliott had a good time when Aunt Lisa came to visit. Here are a few funny pictures from our webcam!

3 Months Old!

Elliott is now 3 months old!  He is growing out of his 3 month clothes and out of his size 1 diapers!  He has started to grab things and has more control of his upperbody.  He has also started laughing out loud and loves for us to laugh at him.  Elliott continues to be on a good sleeping scheduling- going to bed around 8 and waking up around 6- hooray for sleep!  We had a fun filled weekend with the Gross family visiting us- thanks for such a great time!  I have been slow at updating the blog because I have been to St. Louis last week and Dallas this week for work.  The daycare staff said Elliott wasn't acting like himself and they thought he missed me.  It was hard being away, but makes being home that much better!  Here are some recent pictures.  I have been thinking about cutting Elliott's hair, as it just keeps getting more and more out of control.

Photo Fun

 We have reached a milestone with Elliott, he has slept through the night 3 times in a row!  The key to our success was increasing the amount of milk at each feeding.  We are super thrilled and hope this trend continues.  Chris and I got a webcam for Christmas and discovered there are lots of funny photo effects.  I could not stop laughing at these pictures.

Blizzard of 2011

The Piekos family survived the Blizzard of 2011! I knew the storm was going to be crazy, when I stopped to fill up the gas tank and the gas station was out of regular gas. Chris thought he would get ahead of the snow and shoveled some on Tuesday evening. We saw thunder and lighting during the snow storm and woke up to around 20 inches of snow.  Needless to say, everything was closed and we did not leave the house all day.  I drove to work on Thursday and saw three accidents on my way.  It took me an hour to get home, it usually takes only 15 minutes, and it is just 6 miles away from my house!  Everything is still getting back to normal and it looks like there is more snow and below freezing wind chills in store for us.
