I didn't want the day to pass without writing about Eden on her 8th birthday. Eden is a great blessing to our family. She has a great sense of humor and I will never tire of those big, brown eyes or that huge smile! While I was pregnant with Eden we decided to have her gender be a surprise. I was sooo happy that I was blessed enough to receive another daughter. Her delivery was my easiest and she is a great kid. From the time she was very little she has always entertained and kept herself busy. She has entertained herself so well over the years that it actually makes me feel guilty that she doesn't receive enough attention. Now she entertains Beckett for me ... A LOT! She is a huge help and a great playmate for him. She is also the only person in our house that picks up our cat, Zoe. Zoe loves Eden and it is always a shock when Eden is carrying her around because she is not very friendly or tolerant of people. She sleeps on Eden's bed every night. Eden now carries her around in a basket and she actually stays in it. Here are some current facts on our girl!
1. She is going to be baptized next month and is very excited about it.
2. She is currently obsessed with dolphins...Kyle told her we had a dolphin in our bathtub for her for her b-day and I think she almost believed him.
3. Her favorite show..that she is obsessed with is "Shake it Up."
4. She loves clothes and anything with sequins right now is a must.
5. Her best friend is Delaney. They have been in the same class since kindergarten and have a lot in common. They both have 5th grade brothers and 3 year old brothers.
6. She has feathers in her hair.
7. She loves having "shorter" hair.
8. She is highly opinionated.
9. Eden is a great student and is excelling in math.
10. She loves to dance around the house.
11. She is a "mommy's girl." :)
12. She chose "Taco Bell" for her birthday lunch.
13. She is in the 2nd grade and her teacher is Mrs. Woodard...she loves school.
14. She is taking piano lessons and will start basketball in January.
15. She loves American Girl Dolls and she currently own 4.
