Pictures of Elliott month by month through his first year

I've seen a lot of cute photo parades the last couple of days, and wanted to do one myself.  This is my first one, so hopefully it turns out right!

 This is a month by month look at how much my son changed during his first year.  The first picture was taken in the hospital shortly before we left.  He was born February 1st, 2006.

The next picture is from the first time we had his pictures taken professionally.

Here he is dressed in his Easter outfit at 2 months old.

Here he is showing his first smile for the camera at 3 months.

 At 4 months, he really preferred laying down on his belly to sitting upright on the little table.

At five months, we had the classic bathtub picture taken.

At 6 months he was really into hats, for brief periods of time.

At 7 months he was starting to crawl, so he was ready to go when we put him in this position!

At 8 months, crawling wasn't new anymore, so he was able to stay still when we placed him on his belly. 

At nine months, he was into whatever props he could get his hands on.  He had also learned to take off his shoes! 

He wasn't quite 10 months old in this picture, but was getting close.  We had family pictures done, so we didn't want to take him again in less than 2 weeks.

This one was taken at his first birthday party.  The party was 3.5 weeks early, because we did it while we were home on emergency leave at my parents' house.

And here he is as a big 1 year old boy!  No longer a baby, and growing much bigger everyday!

I hope you enjoyed looking at the pictures of my son during his first year.  He sure changed a lot.  He's changed a lot in the 10 months since as well!
