Thirty Four Weeks Old

As much as it pained me to do it, I finally cut Edie's bangs. The long wispy strands were just too much of a nuisance, and the threat of Edie eating clips (and her constant fight to get them in) was just too large. So, she has bangs. The verdict on my hair cutting ability is still out.

Teething has been the issue of the week. The last few days (and nights) have been especially difficult in the TrygKerz household. Poor Edie has been sleepless most evenings and pretty irritable all day. Poor little Chiperoo.

On a fun note, since last week Edie has been practicing, to herself, waving. This morning, before Kris left for work he waved to her and she waved back! She has been doing it all day and seems rather amused with her new found talent.

Thirty Three Weeks Old

No tooth yet. I feel like I've been writing that little sentence for a long time now. Yet, it's true again this week. We really have to be inching closer to the new arrival though. This week, Edie has been unusually fussy, drooly, clingy and sleepless, as well as always chomping on her little fingers.

This week in Edie Photos

Here are a few photos from this week. Enjoy.

We finally were able to get outside and take a few walks this week, and boy did it feel good!

Edie is a champion stander. Here, she was supposed to be taking a nap:

Thirty Two Weeks Old

Our determined little child has spent the week figuring out how she can stand up. She pulls herself up on everything from small plastic totes to her mum and pop. We should have known crawling wouldn't be enough to satisfy little miss Edie Pants.

Likewise, diaper changes have become nearly impossible.

She has also started (what we think is) singing to herself. During boring rides in the car, we'll hear a little chirp, chirp, chirp coming from the back seat. We can only assume she is singing "The Itsy Bitsy Spider", her favorite song to date.

Edie's First Cracker

For the record, her first cracker was a reduced fat Wheat Thin (salt brushed off), her mum's favorite.

The Little Ladies of Milestones!

Okay, I hate the term little ladies... not sure what else to call this group of babes. Anywho, enjoy some pictures of Dave & Sarah's Emilia (5 1/2) & Lily (almost 2!), Penny's Maggie (7 months) & my peanut Edie. (7 months).

Thirty One Weeks Old

The little TrygKerz adventurer continues to get better and better at moving around. She can pull herself up to standing on the landing stair to our loft and is pretty good and crawling to us from a good distance (even when we call her name from another room). We bought our first baby gate and hope that it prevents Edie from toppling down the stairs.

She continues to be quite a charmer, smiling at every random person she views. However, during a birthday party for our friend's daughter last weekend, we did notice that Edie is beginning to get a little stranger anxiety when held by people she doesn't know.

Bonnet & Dress

I had quite a successful weekend of sewing. Yesterday, I made a bonnet and today I made a dress.

It's fun to work on these little projects and slowly, yet surely, I'm getting better at sewing.

Thirty Weeks Old

Our little crawling machine's mobile abilities have improved tenfold in just a week's time. Our poor cats have coward in fear as Edie located their food dish and has become more efficient at pulling their fur (and crawling after them). She is also managing to find every cord and piece of paper to put in her mouth, and last night while taking her bath, Edie pulled herself up to standing. It's been quite a week for Edie Pants.

The joke of the week is "the crawl and complain." When Edie is frustrated, but still determined, she'll continue crawling and whine at the same time. It's pretty darn funny.
