8/23/10

I thought it would be fun to dedicate this weeks journal all to Eden since her birthday is on Wednesday. LOVE YOU EDEN MUFF!

Just yesterday we had a little birthday bash for Eden. It was so fun to see that cute girl loving her party. She got into the cake and even got it all over her face and in her hair and eyes. Still with a smile on her face. She got new dolls which she gives equal love to each. Hugging them all day long. I just can't believe she is growing up so quickly!

She has started to say a few words. In addition to her favorite (dada) She now will point at things and say "this" (which Ella also did). She can every now and then say , 'Eden' and 'Ella' and occasionally I will get a 'mama' out of her. (Gordon is a bit harder to say...it will come Gordon!)

Eden is getting better at her signs. We have taught her 'please', 'more', 'finished', 'out'.

She will give hugs and kisses all the time.

She always has her tongue out :) crying, laughing, while concentrating...all the time!

We call Eden our 'Muppet Baby' and Taylor will sing the Muppet baby song to her all the time. So we found it only natural to make her cake a Muppet baby cake. We use the hostess snowballs for the heads and various candies to decorate them to bring them to life. It was a blast. (the funniest part though was all of the kids were calling out which head they wanted and they each took one bit and realized that they were not as good as they looked :)---the coconut covered marshmallow and cake balls were not a hit with the younger crowd)

We just love our Eden Girl! She is such a joy and a wonderful addition to our family. We can't imagine life without her!
