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.

Oliver's Got Moves




Last Saturday (the 9th) we watched Lydia while Laurie and Robin went out to eat with some friends who were visiting from out of town. We had such a blast having the two kiddos here. There was an early power struggle over an orange ball but once we put that away the two of them got along great. They ate dinner:








Lydia, by the way, is an expert with a fork. So impressive! Oliver, as you can see, is still in the finger food phase.

After dinner, it was bath time, pj time, story time and then bedtime. Before they retired to their separate bedrooms, however, they shared a heartfelt good night.


Luckily it wasn’t Lydia’s first kiss (Aidan took that prize ages ago) so she didn’t have to be so disappointed in Oliver’s poor form. We’re now working on close-mouthed kisses.
