It's not really that new...he has been in the "new" room for a few months. But, I'm just now getting around to taking pictures for posterity.
His submarine wall with water-themed curtain...
His big boy radio and color changing clock...
His fish pillow cases, kid clinic aprons and wall o' books...
And, currently, his birthday countdown chain. 13 more days...
Soon Elliot will be moving to his new big boy room and I will start getting the nursery ready for its new occupant.

Prepping for Summer
The boys and I planted our Marigold and Zinnia seeds for the garden. Much to Peter's dismay the seeds have been in the dirt for 90 minutes now and they still haven't grown.
Then the boys tried out their new bedrolls for camping. We have a camping trip planned for early in the summer and it will be a whole new adventure for us - a toddler and a preschooler and a heavily pregnant mom.
Peter is holding a rag to his mouth/nose because he has a cold and REALLY doesn't like his nose running. Any nose leakage leads to frantic screaming, sobbing and panic. Unfortunately, after holding a rag there on and off for a few days he has taken to chewing the rags (for comfort?). This is gross because he is chewing snotty rags and it is annoying because it further exacerbates his articulation issues and makes him impossible to understand. I'm firmly trying to break this habit.

A Boy Who Loves Beans
We had bean and rice tacos last night for dinner and Elliot just kept eating, and eating, and eating. Everyone else had finished and left the table for a bit. I went back to see if he was done, but instead found that he had pulled the bean and rice pan toward himself so he could self serve.

A Tidy Crib is a Happy Crib
I went to wake Elliot from his nap and he looked like a cuddly brown ewok...
When he woke he was still a bit groggy...
But then got right to work hanging up bear and his blanket so he could come downstairs...

V is for Vest
Peter made a vest to go with our V unit:
We are almost done with V:
And the boys opted to do chore time before getting dressed for the day. Elliot dragged clothes to the hamper while Peter swept the hallway:
