Farmer's Market Fun and additional Elliott Eye Candy

Elliott and Mommy like to go to the local Farmer's Market on Saturdays, and Mommy remembered her camera this time! Elliott likes to run around among all the other kids and dogs, as well as dance to the music of local musicians. Mommy likes to buy blueberries and watch all the old people coo over Elliott. Elliott sometimes brings his harmonica along and plays while Mommy pushes him around in the stroller. Or sometimes, we go to the toy store that Mommy worked in when she was in college and buy a present.


Elliott likes to test the boundries of how far he can go before Mommy goes chasing after him.

Its hard to tell, but Elliott is slapping his legs to the beat of the music. When a song ends, Elliott is very good about clapping to show his appreciation and says "Yea!"

Elliott finds a friend to help him beat on the windows of the toy store. "Open up! We know you're in there!" Mommy attempts to discourage window beating.

Elliott is an excellent audience. He tries to get Mommy to help him play the musician's drum, but Mommy refuses. He resigns himself to dancing instead.

Elliott holds a gumball from a Sweet Gum tree. Mommy found it for him, but he is unimpressed. He instead goes back to trying to climb the steps of storefronts.

Unrelated to the Farmer's Market, Elliott enjoys coloring without pants. Hey, Van Gogh made art without an ear... maybe Elliott's genius requires no pants.

Elliott "raises the roof." Whoop Whoop.

Elliott gets into Mommy's post-it notes. As punishment, she makes Elliott wear them.

a) ha, it doesn't look like too bad of a punishment from where he's sitting.. :-)

b) i SERIOUSLY HOPE you're not kidding about raising the roof, and that you've taught him to do that on command.
