Baby Yoga

Yes, we go to baby yoga. Every week, Eddie and I drive to Naperville to go to Universal Spirit Yoga on Mill Street. Let me tell you, this is my favorite day of the week. The women in this class are so welcoming and have become such a wonderful support group for myself and Eddie. As an added bonus, all of the babies are adorable! We started going when Eddie was 10 weeks old and have learned the "magic poses" which help stop fussiness and crying immediately - digestion exercises (which work like a CHARM, let me tell you. Eddie is infamous during digestion stuff) - some mommy poses - "brain balancing" poses which help Eddie get used to all of those super fun extremities like...FEET! Last week, during some poses Eddie found that he could get his foot into his mouth and that joy hasn't stopped yet. It is really amazing the difference baby yoga makes....one little girl there is already walking and isn't even 1 yet!
Eddie loves Angie, our instructor!

We also go to lunch with my friend Vicki (seamstress extraordinaire) after yoga every week. I think I laugh more in that lunch than I do all week. Eddie has a major crush on Vicki and gives her these little coy smiles that I have never seen him give anyone...until last week, when he fell for a little girl named Charlotte in class and then gave Vicki the evil eye the entire lunch. Oh, this boy is full of personality. Since it was so nice yesterday (in the 60's!) we went walking and shopping around Naperville. I am convinced that even Eddie was relieved that we could be outside. Today...it is rainy and cold again. BOOOOOOOO. Maybe spring will come some day....
