While I'm not quite ready to write a long post, I will give a few updates. The other day, Frank and I were trying so, so hard to figure out what Eddie was doing differently.....we finally figured out that Eddie has learned to squint his eyes! He does it all the time while smiling and sticking his tongue out (see below) and it just cracks me up to no end. His recent favorites have been: standing with his back against the wall (picture, from Nanna below), climbing the jungle gym (aka Mommy, Daddy, Nanna, babysitter....), playing on the swings, going on walks in the sling with me and Frank, playing with a paci while eating a bottle (a must if he is going to eat), standing and pulling up on everything and anything(which also includes on his large ball drop thing - he will sit down, grab the ball, stand up and put the ball in the drop, sit down, get the ball...etc. It is so cute!)....and just being a crazy man in general. OH, and that babysitter I mentioned....we found one!! She meets all of my requirements and more. And the pulling up I mentioned? Yeah, that (and daddy) are to blame for the lovely cut on his eyebrow/eye area. Coincidentally, it happened when I was interviewing the babysitter! (haha! anyone else see the irony in this?) Well, thankfully, he didn't need stitches and it has healed rather quickly. I've gotten a rather large lesson in being thankful for your loved ones in the past week, so Frank was off the hook pretty quickly :) AND THE TEETH! I forgot to mention the teeth! His top teeth are coming in, which is just funny because I was soooo worried that his bottom teeth haven't come in yet. Nanna convinced me to check his top gums and low and behold, there is white! I'm not going to mention the fact that my handsome man is going to look a little goofy with only top teeth....nope....not going to mention that at all (((cough...buckteeth....cough))) My poor man!

{yup, he's mine alright}

{ep! teeth are coming!!}

{boo, loving the swings}

{Eddie loves playing with Ethan!}

Well, it seems that my not-so-long post turned into a long post. Thanks if you made it this far. I hope to start blogging again soon, it really does feel good to write, I just don't have a ton of motivation to be witty right now. It's a good thing Eddie is a snuggler - he's been getting lots of love lately. Hopefully I'll pick my camera up again, too....poor thing is neglected.
