And he walks!

(this is eden's truly happy/proud face!)
He's still a bit shaky, but attempts to walk everywhere! If you hold his hand, he can walk next to you pretty far. I love it. It's a totally different experience holding his hand. He seems so big!

Well, saying that, he is big. Massive. 5-10 lbs heavier than most kids his age! Quickly growing out of all his 12-18 month clothing.

These are photos from a photoshoot phil did with him a few weeks ago. Obviously phil didn't take the one of the two of them - i did. There are more. Lots more.

Today Eden has another appointment with the specialist about lactose intolerance. We were so close to being in the clear but he seemed to react quite badly to the introduction of milk, about a week into it. We've pulled him off it and are waiting to see what the specialist advises. He is on other dairy products.

Eden is trying his hardest to learn how to use cutlery these days. He loves it when i give him the container of fromage frais (doesn't drip out like yoghurt!) and a spoon. He doesn't quite get it right, but he knows the necessary actions! Sometimes he won't eat unless we give him cutlery, which then requires our assistance as he struggles to get anything on his spoon or fork.

And the teeth that have been bothering him have finally broken through! He's up at 8 teeth now, even though everyone only ever sees the bottom 2. Soon the new 2 will be visible and his two tooth grin will be a memory.
