Eden Grace





Eden is officially 10 and a half months and she is into everything. She is a fast crawler. A typical day for her begins with a breakfast of bananas and oatmeal, followed by a bath and a bottle. After she is dressed, she has a typical pattern. She takes off as fast as she can for Charlie's food and water, which she can get to about a quarter of the time before me. She grabs fists full of dog food and throws it behind her and then splashes the water until is spills on her and the floor. She sometimes eats the food too. After that she heads for the oven and pulls off the towels, and then for any cupboard or the pantry that is open. She then crawls to the family room to pull off the magazines she can reach and rips the pages. She will also crawl to my bathroom and turn on the bathtub. She can only reach the hot water, which she splashes until it gets too hot. She has also been known to crawl to the toilet and see what damage can be done there. Today she climbed up the stairs twice. She keeps really busy following her brother and sisters and chasing Charlie. She likes to pull his tail.

Eden is a happy girl and we love her to death. We are overcome by how cute she is.

Eden is cute and getting so big. She'll be climbing on the table and dumping out cereal before you know it. It is a busy but fun stage.

She is very cute and I am impressed with all she can do--even if it is mostly mischief. Adam prefers to sit and watch the action. Not really close to crawling at all. Oh well, don't have to worry yet about him going down the stairs. Good to hear from you!

Hey, I found your blog! Brinley fell asleep while I was checking my email, so I started blog hopping. I'll have to add you to my list...as soon as I make one. Love the pics of little Eden!
