It is hard to believe that Edison is now five months old - that is, until I have to pick him up. He weighs in at about 19 lbs these days & I've got the arm muscles to prove it. On top of that, his two bottom front teeth are now coming in - apparently that is behind all the drool. I didn't attribute the drool to teething because he's still a little young for teeth, but then our friend Jamie noticed he'd cut his first tooth when we celebrated our Early Bird Thanksgiving a couple weeks ago. (I'll try to get a picture, but it is a tough angle.
Look who's starting to get comfortable on his tummy!
Eben & I have been sick for the past couple weeks. We did enjoy a very fine Thanksgiving meal at his sister's house. But our plan to go to spend the rest of the weekend with friends in upstate New York was scrapped because of illness. Instead, we spent the whole break on the couch watching DVDs in front of the fire, under piles of blankets. Fortunately Edison did not catch the bug. We've now almost recovered and are trying to get back into our normal routines again. Needless to say, being sick caused a delay in the blog posting & a lack of new photos for the week. Sorry! So - don't forget to take lots of Vitamin C!!!

So grown up.
Gotta love the naked baby shots. I didn't mean to match the paint color to his eyes - just a happy coincidence.
100% vegetarian baby
Edison with Granddad on Christmas eve. Look at those smiles!
The flight from Dallas to Boston on Christmas day was pretty empty. We had a whole row to ourselves and had a little Christmas picnic and card game.
