Long November . . .

Filling up at Thanksgiving . . . It was a wonderful feast, but I think Eden would have been happy just eating the green olives and the squash.

Reading with the two monsters . . . an almost nightly ritual.

Jumping on the bed in the morning . . . she always wakes up with the same impish grin :)

And there she is . . . our little beauty . . .

A New Beginning . . .

We're due in May!

Now Ozma won't be her only partner in mischief at the house! ;)

Ahhh, yes. It is certain, "the more, the merrier" :)

Dance Revolution!

Take it from me, these dance moves are going to be the next big thing in lazy people dance. You know, leaning against a couch, swaying, one arm moving, and a snack in hand . . . Everyone is going to be doing it :)

At Long Last, a New Post!

Finally, after almost a month, I return to the blog. Sorry for the delay. The time just seemed to slip right on by.

This month has been marvelous again! Eden is quite the curious girl. Her obsession with books continues, to my great joy.

Her favorite meal, since our apple picking adventure, is a nice juicy apple. They fit nicely right into the palm of her hand and she can carry them everywhere she goes! I am quickly learning that apple can in fact stain clothes. Anyone with hints, bring 'em on, because several of her shirts have red/orange stains all around the necks.

Her games with Ozma have grown more complicated, and Ozma seems to be quite confused over how rapidly an immobile, drooling, sleeping baby has turned into a wild animal with no regard for either of their safety. Here is Eden, drunk on apples ready to head-butt the dog. Poor Ozma seems oblivous to her imminent doom. Thankfully, Ozma still seems to love Eden, no matter the onslaught.

For Halloween Nana and Papa came by to hang out with our little ladybug. We had so much fun watching her reactions to all the trick-or-treaters! She squealed at them, and even barked at the ones dressed up as werewolves and dogs . . . what a goof! She quickly caught on to the procedure for the evening and even handed out some candy!

The biggest news of all is that on Halloween, Eden walked for us . . . quite a bit! However, no pictures survive of the occurence. Hopefully the video footage is salvageable. We'll see if I can figure out how to get that on here.

And at the end of the night . . . she was exhausted!
