Edison's Edition (One Year)

Weight: 21 pounds, 2 ounces
Length: 30.25 inches

How? How did this happen? How did these days add up to an entire year? Edison was born one year ago. He has gained 13 pounds and grown 10 inches. He has learned to say three words, and understands more than I know. He has a huge smile, great sound effects, and the newest addition: big, juicy, open mouth kisses!

They don't get much cuter than this!

Photobucket
This is not a slide, Daddy!

Photobucket
"I feel something under my feet. That's okay, I'll just kick it."

Photobucket
About to be tackled.

Photobucket
Smash!

Photobucket
A good-lookin' little girl boy.

Photobucket
Little bumblebee.

Photobucket
Why?! This is not a step!

Photobucket
He loves snuggling.

Photobucket
Ooh! More books to pull off!

Photobucket
Just keep sweeping, just keep sweeping.

Photobucket
He is such a messy eater. Our kitchen floor is always a disaster.

Photobucket
"Where's our food?!"

Photobucket
Delicious chalk!

Photobucket
"Computer under the desk? Don't mind if I do."

Photobucket
Edison fell asleep in his carseat at church. We started the drive home and he woke up. Then he climbed right out. Oops, somebody wasn't strapped in!

Photobucket
He got a bubble machine for his birthday and loves it!

Photobucket
Mmm, orange peel.

Photobucket
"Don't mind me. I'm just driving my car."



He is getting really good at walking.


Hilarious. Playing keep away from Daddy.


Jabbering away at Daddy.


He loves having water squirted in his mouth.


Here are a few more things Edison does for which I do not have a matching picture:
He...
...can drink through a straw.
...had roseola earlier in the month and was miserable for a week.
...tries to climb on the futon, but can't quite make it. He can climb on the couch when Alex pulls off the cushions for him.
...makes sound effects while pushing around cars.
...makes growling sounds for all animals.
...changes directions very easily while walking.
...loves walking in circles, almost always to the left.
...does belly blows to Mommy.
...loves cheese and strawberries.
...may have a chipped front tooth.
...prefers walking to crawling.
...looks like a giant in his Pack N Play.
...can say "More," "Ball," and "Mama" at the appropriate times.
...has another tooth (3.26.12). Total of eight teeth now.
...loves food. If he thinks I have something in my mouth and he wants it, he just tries to fish it right out.
