More Walking

Ebby Walking

Yesterday I was taking some pictures of our new apartment when Ebby started walking to me! He's been taking a couple of steps here and there since Sunday but never this many. I'm so glad I had the camera on hand.

Girl or Boy

So for the past little while I've been babysitting a 4 year old boy for a friend. It's just been two days a week except for this week. (The other lady who watches him is out of town so I get him every day this week.) It's definitely made my life more interesting. For fun (and out of necessity), we've been going to the local park for lunch every day. You never know who will be at the park. Especially since there is a dog park attached to it. Sometimes there are teenagers skipping class, sometimes a bunch of people with their dogs and sometimes there are other parents with their children. Today there were three young asian women with their babies, all between one and three years old. As we were all swinging one of them asked me how old my little girl was. 'WHAT?' Ebby was in gray pants and a white and yellow top. (Not the most fashionable I admit but hey it wasn't that bad.) She apologized but added. "He really looks like a girl." After a while I got another question: "What is his name?" I said, "We call him Ebby" thinking 'no way is she going to think that's a girl name.' I was wrong. "Oh ... that's such a girl name." 'WHAT?' I tried to clarify by stating his legal name is Edward but was rebutted by "I guess that's a little better."

Now I need people to be honest here. Does my baby look like a girl or a boy?

"Da Da Da"

Andrew was feeding Ebby after church today. Every now and then Ebby would rest his head in his hand. SO cute! So, Andrew quickly grabbed the camera and was just in time to film this:

Ebby Conducting

I don't know if it's because Ebby sees me conduct the music in Sacrament meeting every Sunday or he just picked it up from watching conference but this was too cute to keep to ourselves. Enjoy.
