Baby Crate

On Monday, Dave, Edie and I (Eric was snoozing) were hanging out on the sunporch, enjoying the first bit of sunshine we had in quite a few days. Monday is also trash and recycling day. We typically have very little trash, but lots of recyclables. Of course, we have the little blue bin we place at the end of the driveway for the recycling truck, but we also use blue milk crates for any overflow. Well, Edie found one of the crates on the porch, and after pushing it around like a little cart for several minutes, she decided to hop in!

Look at that goofy smile!

Such a little ham

Crazy Face!

She spent quite a while in the crate. It was like her own little world. When she was younger, she did the same thing with her toy baskets (she would dump all the toys out and climb in). Since I repainted and sealed the porch floor, it's much smoother. It was the perfect surface for baby-crate bowling (a sport Edie seems to really love)!

The Pantless Wonder

No clothes, off to check in on her little brother (or terrorize him, either way). At least she kept her barrette in this time.

Stealing from the Helpless

Edie didn't know we could see her from the office. We watched as she took the socks right off her poor little brother and tried to put them on her own feet.

Then, it appeared she had a change of heart, and decided to put them back on Eric's feet.

I think Eric was a little oblivious to the whole thing, really

But, on second thought, she tried them back on. I haven't a clue where her shirt went - we've been having trouble getting her to keep her clothes or diaper on!

Photos From an Average Day

Here are some random pictures of an average evening at our house. This was after dinner, and just before Edie was off to bed (notice the jammies).

That card she is carrying around is a birthday card I received earlier in the day from my dear friend, Jenn. Clearly, Edie enjoyed reading it.

Look at that little boy laugh!

What. A. Face. I think she was in "Monster Baby" mode. This is one of Dave's favorite photos of Edie.

A little cranky boy

Dave had graduation the weekend before, and thought Eric should try on the cap

What Up?

What is that face? Looks like she was up to no-good
