Hey everyone,
I haven't posted in a while and I have several pictures to share from Eden's 3rd birthday party (gymnastics/Dora theme). We also made a trip to the circus 2 weeks ago and she LOVED it. We were on the FRONT row.
I had to do a quick post of something Eden said the other day. I was snuggling with her and I said, "Eden, we're family aren't we?" She responded quite matter-of-factly, "Yes, and daddy is the line leader of our home and we are the cabooses."
My jaw dropped. See, Eden often comes to me after her daddy has told her "no" and asks me for whatever he denied her. I always explain to her that daddy is the "boss" of our home, then mommy. If he says "no, " the answer is "no."
In her 3-year-old mind she reasoned that he is the line leader, since at Mother's Day Out they appoint a line leader and all the other kids follow this person. Isn't that amazing that she made that connection? I was shocked!
Then the other night she was making a pretend birthday party for Gene and he was saying over and over "I want a cupcake, I want a cupcake." She looked at him and said, "Chill out daddy, I'm getting you one." We roared with laughter for a good 5 minutes over that one. That is what I say to her when she is being impatient with me.
Lastly, Gene was laying down and Eden walked up to him and said, "Daddy, those are some nasty feet!" Once again, we roared with laughter...she keeps us laughing. My mom plays this game with her where she pretends to smell her feet and says that to her.
Just a few Eden moments I had to share.

Isn't a child's deductive reasoning (I think that's what it's called) amazing? Even at 5 months old, Quinn "puts two and two together!" He has discovered that if there is a toy on the blanket he is laying on and he can't reach it, he'll just pull the blanket and the toy will come to him; instead of him having to crawl to it. Then again, that might be a bad thing. He's figured out how to take the easy way out! ;) Give sweet Eden hugs and kisses from us! And here's a big hug for you!
