We wanted to share with you this cute little hand-knitted sweater and hat that Ms. Flossie made for Edie. It is precious! Ms. Flossie baby sat Scott when he was a baby and also knitted Mindy a dress when she was a child. I can not wait until it gets cooler so she can wear it!
Things are getting back to normal around here now that GiGi is back this week after spending a few weeks in Jacksonville, FL visiting Great Giddo and family. Edie's Great Giddo is not feeling well and needs your prayers. Scott is planning to go to Jacksonville to visit him in the next few weeks. Edie and I would like to go along as well but I am afraid of flying with her this early. So we will stay behind for now and hold down the fort.
While GiGi was out of town Edie and I ate, worked, played, ate, worked and played some more. I had a couple of days I did not think I would make it working and keeping her at the same time - but as you can see we made it just fine. Actually looking back she was perfect it was my customers who were driving me crazy!!
Edie is now eating cereal for breakfast and a solid at dinner. We have tried most all of the vegies at this point and she has done really well with all of them. We do believe that so far the carrots are her favorite. i can not wait to give her fruit since it will be her first really sweet taste. She is eating really well with the spoon and seems to enjoy being in her highchair. I think daddy does a better job of keeping her clean during feeding than I do. She is so in love with Scott. Her face just lights up when he is around her.
We are now starting on solids once each night. Here is a photo of Edie's first taste of sweet peas. She gaged and made plenty of funny faces. She had the most fun spitting and blowing it back on us!
If you are ever in Cancun you should definitely visit CoCo Bongo! It is a great time. They pack in about 1000 people for a Vegas Style show. We saw Madonna, Elvis, Jimmy Hendrix, Spider Man, Beetle Juice, and more celebrities. They also had several different acts while hanging from ropes. A lot of fun!!
Scott and I had a wonderful time while in Cancun. As you can tell the resort was beautiful and the weather was perfect. Click on the photos to enlarge.
I think Edie may have found a new boyfriend. She could not keep her hands off of Bradan.
My girlfriends, husbands and babies had a small gathering this weekend for our friend Nicole's homecoming. It is hard to believe we are all grown up and having babies! Congratulations to Amanda and Apple on their new bundle of joy! Merritt was born this past Wednesday - family is doing great!
Edie wanted to share with you an early Christmas gift she received from her GiGi. Isn't it beautiful! GiGi cross stitched this by hand and had made into a wonderful stocking for Edie. GiGi has also cross stitched a little girl kneeling and saying a prayer for Edie. We have this framed in Edie's room. I will have to share with you another time since Edie is sleeping now.
Saturday night we went to our friends Ashley and Eric Caldwell's for a cookout. They have a beautiful 7 month old named Charlie. As you can see Edie found him very interesting. Charlie was kind enough to let Edie play in one of his toys. A cross between a walker and a exersaucer. We could not believe how well she held herself up and played alone with the toys. Scott and I are definitely getting her one of these this week. I think it gave her freedom to play and it made her feel secure at the same time. She loved it!!
