Happy Birthday to Eddie!











Wednesday was Eddie's 1st birthday! He's growing and changing every day....so fast we can't believe it.

Fun facts about Eddie at age one:

1. He LOVES the cats and dogs. Ellie, our black and white cat, loves him too. He lays down on her and she purrs.
2. He's obsessed with plug-ins (strange, I know).
3. He babbles almost constantly and can definitely say "mama." Other words we think he says but are not definite: ke ke (kitty cat), dada, ba (ball), ba ba (bottle).
4. He claps and waves bye-bye and plays "give me five."
5. He loves playing ball! Every morning the first thing he does is get his ball and go to the entryway (where it's tile and the ball rolls more easily).
6. He shakes his head "no" all the time! Sometimes before every bite of food (which he then accepts). He also shook his head "no" through his entire haircut, and it's pretty uneven!. He also shook his head "no" at the wall after he bumped his head on it. Too funny.
7. He can walk holding onto the furniture and also when pushing his big dumptruck or the laundry basket (upside down).
8. He eats like a horse! Loves almost everything.....especially if it comes off of Mommy or Daddy's plate.
9. He plays peekaboo. He'll sit next to the long living room curtains and pull them over his face.....then move it away and we say "pee-pie." He LOVES this game.
10. He has 5 teeth.
11. He loves the TV Show The Wiggles.
12. He loves playing outside....and loves to ride in the backpack on Daddy's back on walks.
13. He loves books--his current favorite is One Oogly Eye.
14. He's finally sleeping well--sometimes all the way through the night....but usually waking up once.
15. He's growing like a weed--he's up to 25 pounds!
