Here is Ed with his trusty laundry basket and blanket ready to take on the world.
Ed loves his Dad. He also loves to point at anything and everything.
This is Ed. Ed is growing fast. Ed is trouble.
Ed has decided the laundry basket is his. If we try to use it he dumps everything out of it so he can have it for his only personal use. He has a lot of uses. It slides nicely on our carpet and transistions flawlessly from extreme plush to padless berber to peeling linoleum. Aside from the fun he has sliding it around the house he also loves to fill it up with things from around the house. He usually starts off with his blanket, then pulls off plastic ornaments from the Halloween lights and tosses a few of those in, he proceeds into the office for whatever not-haves he can collect in there and to top it off he likes to put a bunch of cars and blocks in there for show.
Recently he has realized that another basket perk is that he can flip it over and voila he can now reach everything that was intentially placed "out of Ed's reach". Okay, we will have to move all of those things further back or tuck them away; a hassle but manageable. What I am irked about is how I went to take a shower and it was lacking hot water only to step out into a nice refreshing 60 degree house.
I asked Mark if he wouldn't mind checking it out in case the pilot light went out or whatever happens to make the water NOT HOT. Turns out someone thought it would be great to turn the switch to "vacation" mode on the water heater as well flip off the switch controlling our central heat. Yeah, thanks for that Ed.
What I do love about Ed right now is how he has enthusiasm for finding "pun-keeens!" and everything is "sceeeery". I love his smile and I even love how anytime I bend down to pick something up Ed comes tearing around a corner leaps up with arms spread and both feet off the ground to body slam me. I usually win, but I love how he keeps trying anyway.

Sara! He is so cute! I loved reading about the body slam... he is all boy, and aren't boys just so active?? They are lots of fun, lots of work, and oh so cute!
p.s. sorry about your cold shower! Preston has made the cops come twice now becasue of his long, long, "go go Gadget" arms and messing with the house alarm buttons. We only have one more free "false alarm" and then we will have to start paying a fee!
