holiday catch up

Halloween 2009

I noticed that pretty much everyone had their kids' Halloween photos posted to Facebook within 24 hours. It only took me six weeks. Yep.

For this Halloween - his second - Elliot was an OCTOPUS, fierce hunter of the murky abyss.

Deadly octopus tangling with prey


The octopus doesn't like to be watched while stalking its first giant squirrel.


While the ferocious octopus is distracted by a gift-bearing astronaut, the darting squirrel will live to see another day...


...or not. Having just devoured an astronaut, squirrel, jack o lantern and tea party protester, our hunter finally settles for a moment...


and gives his tentacles a chance to rest.



Thanksgiving 2009

Elliot approached his second Thanksgiving with the same explosive fervor as Halloween.

Showing no mercy towards his turkey, mashed potatoes, dinner roll and fruit.



Elliot's appetite and resolve had clearly returned with his health.


Shocked onlookers keeping their distance.

That is pretty cute!
I think that the 6 week delay for the Halloween photos shouldn't cause too much damage to Elliot.
