Recovered

We had a terrific week. Edison is at a magical age in babyhood - very fun & interactive, loves to imitate his parents, friendly and sociable, and he stays in one place and doesn't eat "real" food yet. Anyway - he is a wonderful son and a very enjoyable baby.



Edison is learning to sit on his own. This is a "bumbo" chair that helps babies sit up. Edison hasn't made up his mind yet as to whether he likes it or not.

Most of the pictures I take are front view, so this is a side view to help you get a better sense of him. Aren't those chubby cheeks just ready to be squeezed?!Here's Edison sitting without the chair. The technical term is "tripod" - leaning forward on both hands. He's getting closer, though.
We went up to Boston for the weekend and Edison enjoyed getting lots of big hugs (and hand-me-downs) from his older cousins, Harry, Lily, & Sarah. They take really good care of their little cousin when he visits - finding toys for him to play with and entertaining him..



His cousins passed along their Exersaucer. Edison adores it - he can't get enough of standing and this way mom gets a little break from helping him stand. We're still working on standing upright, though.
