Hello hello. I have plenty of videos to upload but no idea where the video camera is. Fortunately phil did rescue it after losing it in a 2 foot deep ball pool on saturday (of all places!!!)... but since then I haven't seen it...and I need to use nap time wisely!
Eden is doing fabulously, mostly. He is really cheerful and funny. My gosh it's a fun age. His absolute favourite activity is to stand in the middle of the room and clap... going 'ha! ha! ha!'... He always claps if i say 'yay!' and then claps again if you clap in response... he also seems to think peekaboo is the funniest thing in the world. Now that we have him forward facing in the car (we couldn't afford to go down the rear-facing route in the end) we just have to turn our heads to see him and he giggles.
He has had a terrible tummy bug...and been extraordinarily clingy... but this morning I took him to the doctor to see about his cough, to find out that he has a double ear infection and that it looks extremely painful!!! This is probably why i get so little sleep! So we're under orders to keep him on baby painkillers (Calpol for those who know the lingo) and see how it goes. I have a prescription for antibiotics if it doesn't seem to get better by tomorrow. I'd prefer not to use them, but obviously if he needs them we'll go for it. It just seems that we over anti-biotic the world these days!!
I still don't know what we're getting him for his birthday. He recently acquired an old keyboard from his great, great-grandmother's estate... it is a lot like one our family had when i was younger. He is absolutely obsessed and if he sees it under the futon, i have no peace until it has been set up.
We've lost his 'baby shoes' but he's not ready for real shoes...so we're not entirely sure what to do. As it gets wetter and colder, he needs something! probably an entire water-proof suit as well! But i keep delaying these purchases till i feel more decisive.
anyway, here's a picture of eden on a swing!
