Another week has passed. The weather has been unfortunately british but finally cleared

up yesterday so we headed to my aunt's house to play in her pool. It was way too cold to take eden in (phil would argue it was too cold to get in ourselves) so he sat in the ultra-tiny paddling pool my mum bought (she didn't check the measurements!). he enjoyed pulling up the sides around himself.

Eden's 2nd tooth has come through! It brought with it a fever and there is a questionable rash lurking... but it is through and he's much happier.

Oh and the big news is, within 2 days of arriving here, most of eden's eczema disappeared!!!! We think it must have been an allergic reaction to our laundry powder. This is slightly annoying as whenever i said what one we used (fairy, non-bio) we were told it wasn't the problem!!!!!!! Obviously it is. Er Was.

He's learning all sorts of new noises...one that sounds quick hen-like. And tries to take off to crawl but as soon as he's about to launch, he thinks better of it and pulls himself back.
