hi eddy!
i can not believe in just 1 week you are going to be TEN months old! this has been the fastest time in my life. mama is so busy but i wouldnt trade it for anything else! i love my days at home with you and your brothers. your brothers ADORE you and think you are the cutest little thing. owen calls you "kugar" ALL the time. and you are going through some major separation anxiety, so whenever i leave the room or set you down you cry and owen says in such a sad little voice "awwwww poor kugar!" (kugar originated from sugar). i love kissing your chubby thighs and cheeks! you just smile and giggle when i do :) you love listening to bed time stories with your brothers in their bed. soon you will be picking out the books. love you so very much!
(can you tell i cant remember much from 8 months! yikes!)
