New.

Eden has a new jacket and a new hat. Now, for ordinary children this would be ranging from mundane to slightly exciting. For Eden, it's scary. (apparently). So we had to be creative in our attempts to even get these things on.

For the jacket, the fact that it has a small car on the front and cars on the liner helped... but he still said he was scared. So, Phil suggests that Trunky wore one jacket and eden the other. Eden let trunky wear the old jacket, so phil helped eden into the new one (with some protest) by putting his arm in too! the hat, however was not going to happen yesterday.

This morning, I got him into the hat by convincing him to put it on PLUS his Bob hat. The things we have to do!

(and obviously he fell in a mud puddle the first time he wore it)
