Another Lover...

...of Cinderella's Castle

In the list of things that Edy likes to do, we can add playing with Cinderella's castle.  At times, she will sit and play with it for 30 minutes straight--an eternity for a one year old.


Yuck...look at that rag-a-muffin kid.  Currently, she has THREE molars cutting at once.  THREE!  This makes for one wet baby--drool, snot, and other stuff.  Yuck-o!

Graham and I have always joked about how rickety and rinky dink this Cinderella's castle is.  It's just cheaply made.  It tips over--pieces fall off, it gets bumped--pieces fall to the floor, a princess uses the elevator--the roof falls off.  What kind of castle is that?  Certainly not the life of luxury these princesses hoped for...not exactly 'Happily Ever After'.

I'm going to be honest, I never thought it would still be around at this point.  Ahhh...but here it is.  I finally broke out the hot glue gun and glued all the pieces down!

Original lover of Cinderella's Castle!

Edy Grows - 15 months (almost)

Ro had her 15 month check-up today. . .  

Getting ready for shots...poor baby!

Edy's stats at 15 months:
  • 21 lbs 15 oz - 28%
  • 31 inches - 77%
Just a little comparison--I promise I won't be comparing their height and weight at age 13, but for now when it doesn't matter...

AG's stats at 15 months:
  • 24 lbs 12.5 oz - 66%
  • 32.25 inches - 90%
Look at those baby blues!

More about Edy Rose:
  • can repeat and say a whole bunch of words (Momma, Dad, Ava or Aba, sister, spoon, waffle, light, ball, no-no, down, cup, drink, baby...)
  • favorite song - "Ring Around the Rosie".  She always chimes in and says "ashes, ashes" and then she falls down.
  • still fascinated with cups
  • walks/runs everywhere
  • dances to music
  • hasn't gotten her "fang" teeth, but is cutting three molars all at once
  • a Momma's girl to a fault
