update 1-18-2010

Edward is getting so big! we went to Ohio for Christmas and had an amazing time and we really enjoyed getting to see all the family (even a few people we hadn't seen in a few years!) It was wonderful! Edward loved opening presents which makes me even more excited for next year when he is really aware of whats going on! Now we are looking forward to Edwards !st birthday...(AHHHH HE IS ALMOST A YEAR OLD!!!!!) Im so excited! He is making leaps and bounds and is sooo close to crawling! Actually tonight he figured out peek-a-boo it was soo cute he kept pulling the covers over his face and yanking them away and ten cracking up! I love my son! well I have tons and tons of photos to post but with our new camera Im going to have to re size them so bare with me! hopefully now that the holidays have settled im planning on trying to blog once a week! hope all is well!

long awaited update

hello everyone! its been so long since I blogged! Its been a busy month! we had some friends stay with us then Dave and I were both sick but by the grace of God Edward stayed healthy! the only issue we have had was he had an eye infection. some big stuff has taken place since I last wrote Edward got his first tooth and then his second! he lost a little weight so they uped his feeding olume and moved it to every four hours. he is rolling over all the time and has an amazing personality he even sings when you sing to him! it is too cute! The biggest thing that has happened though is that he is now able to eat baby food! he loves it so much and is doing great! well thats about all the updates we are planning on making a visit to Ohio for Christmas please pray that that goes well and that everything goes smoothly!!

Update

sorry its been a while again! here is the update: Edward has been doing pretty well! the only problem we have really been having is he is getting alot of air/gas in his stomach. but other than that he is doing awesome! He is talking up a storm and he laughs all the time which is sooo cute! he is also starting to roll over more often and he loves eating his fingers and watching TV! He is getting so big if I would guess I would think he is about 15 pounds now! he is still really short a couple of weeks ago they measured him @ Wic and he was only 22 inches long. Oh well maybe he is going to be short like his mommy but hope fully he will be about his Uncle Rusty's size! well here are some great pictures we took and a couple of the Crazy snow we are getting here in the Middle of October! oh ps. the pictures are way out of order...sorry!
