cuddly days




well. it's a rainy and miserable day here, so it's time to get stuff sorted! like passports, blogging, tidying, etc. all the things i avoid like the plague.

everyday eden is becoming that much more co-ordinated, that much more interested in his surroundings. we had lunch in the pub yesterday and after he got bored with his melon, he sat on my knee doing his best to steal my pear cider and sorbet! 

this week we'll be going to the doctor again to sort out lactose free formula. finally the big question - will he take it - will be answered. i'm not sure what the plan is if he refuses it! we haven't thought through that far.

he is loving his high-chair. there is still only so long he'll sit in it, but he is still quite young. 
we're attempting to wean him off his dummy...yesterday he wasn't really interested in it, other than for sleeping... this morning he's been a bit clingy/grumpy so it's been in...i just don't want him to be 4, running around with a dummy in his mouth!!!

the countdown is on until canada. phil is on his final placement, and starting to look for jobs... a break will be SO nice. I mean, i know that i am off all the time...but it's different on weekends or when phil is around. 

eden is constantly pulling funny faces with his mouth shape... i suppose it's learning to form sounds, etc, but it is hilarious. constantly puckering, or sucking in his bottom lip, or making his lips go flat (so they kind of look like a duck's bill!).... so i'll leave you with this photo...it's my favourite lately.

i love the blog- nice to see Phil with Eden as well. i loved the last picture with the strange face shape-
i hope the doctor's appointment goes well and that Eden will take the formula-
when you said 8 weeks until you come to Canada yesterday i was surprised- it has seemed to take forever-
hope you are able to get some of the things done you need to do especially the passport-
it will be great for you to have a longer time off with Phil-
oh i can't wait until you come.
blessings
