We met in 2002 while we were both working at BookPeople in Austin, Texas. We got married on June 18, 2005 and now live in a small house in North Austin with our two dogs, Coltrane and Miles, and our three cats - Gnosis, Nona, and Kali. Brian works as an Editorial Assistant at the University of Texas Press and Elizabeth still works at BookPeople as a buyer and the Inventory Operations Manager.

On April 12, 2009 we welcome our first child, Oliver Mott, into our family and on February 12, 2013, his little brother, Henry Charles, joined us three weeks before his expected due date.

Sundays With Oliver - Week Ten


It was a week full of celebrations for us. I turned 30 on Monday, Thursday was our four-year anniversary and today is Brian’s first Father’s Day. We had lots of fun celebrating all of our milestones. Also, Oliver got to meet his great-grandparents this week when my dad’s parents came into Austin. 

Oliver really discovered his hands this week and is starting to try to reach out and grab things. He has kept us on our toes this week by refusing to take a bottle for a few days and by having some not so great nights of sleep this weekend. We haven’t tried again with a bottle lately but my mom is here to watch him this week so she will try to give him a bottle tomorrow. Good luck, Mom! I’m hoping it’s a temporary thing since I have to work inventory next Sunday night and it will be pretty difficult to do that if I have to breastfeed Oliver all night. 

Here are the pictures from this week’s Sundays With Oliver. I love the little outfit that my mom got him. So cute!
