Ed likes to play with blankets. He laughs when I put it over both our heads. Then he pulls it off, which as you may guess is fabulous for the hair (not something he needs to worry about!) However, he doesn't seem to realize that there might be more than one way to get the blanket off his head. He knows how to reach up and pull it forward, so even if lifting from the front and pulling back would expose his face faster, he still pulls forward until the whole blanket passes over his head and into his lap. And, let's face it, then back to his mouth!





For the strong-of-stomach, here's a shot of tonight's dinner--a combo jar of spinach and carrots. If Ed could talk, he might echo his older cousins' lament, "Mommy, this is not my favorite!" He eats it, but not eagerly. He needs intermittent relief in the form of the fruit course to keep him going. Tonight he got particularly frisky, sucking on his fingers while still holding some spinach in his mouth, leading to gooey spinach to squish in his fingers and rub all over his face up to his eyebrows.
