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 Thirty-Six


I’m not feeling well so this will be a short update (sorry it’s late). We had a good week. Oliver spent Tuesday with me at the store so that we could get our house treated for fleas. He did really well - he actually managed to take a nap in my office so I was able to get some work done while he was there. On Friday, Oliver and I went down to San Antonio so that I could decorate the Christmas tree with Mom. On Saturday afternoon, we spent a couple of hours in the park with Laurie, Robin and Lydia. Saturday night we tried (without much success) to go see the carolers at Nicole and Chris’s house. And on Sunday, we went to Lucas’s birthday party. It was a long, fun week.

Oliver did some better sleeping this week but naps have been a struggle the past couple of days. He’s become an expert at pulling himself up and now does it every time he’s put into his crib. He still can’t get down, though. It’s pretty frustrating but it’s also pretty cute to go in there first thing in the morning and see him standing up in his crib, ready to greet the day.

Here are the pictures from this week:
