So on Sunday we had a special Stake Conference. The Presiding Bishop came and spoke, which we thought was way cool. Edgar did pretty well, but by the end of the two hour meeting he was so tired and bored. We stayed sitting to let the traffic thin out a little, but the people next to us got right up. Edgar held out his hands, begging to go with them. He cried when we made him stay with us. He wanted to go home so bad.
I was enjoying Bishop Burton interacting with everyone; shaking hands, smiling. After the crowed thinned out he walked right by us and his wife stopped to shake my hand(I must admit, I was hoping it would happen). He told me how cute Edgar was and scruffled his hair shook my hand. Well, Edgar looked at me, and looked at Bishop Burton, and looked at me as if to say "well mom, HE is outta here!" and then leaned for him and grabbed him by the coat lapels and yelled "PLEASE take me with you!!!" Funny boy.

One year old!
Edgar, you are one year old! I can't even believe it! This year has gone so fast for me. You are so big now. You have 6 teeth, and you started walking a few days before your birthday. You had two parties:one at each grandma's house. At Grandma Pratt's house I made you a dirt cake and put it in a dump truck. You grabbed the candle instead of blowing it. Then you tasted the cake with one finger, then two fingers, and then you tried to climb right in the truck! At Grandma Natalie's house we had yummy pie for your birthday. You don't really get presents, and sometimes you were more interested in the paper than you were the gift. But everyone had fun and you were too cute.
You had lots of fun at the family reunion in St. George. You played in a bucket of water with some measuring cups for half the night, then got sooo tired. The next day you really wanted to play ball with the older boys, but you couldn't keep up. Once you decided to crawl cause it was faster and crawled right through some dog poo. GAH! You loved the puddle under the snow cone machine and got very dirty.
You have a funny way of talking. Sometimes it sounds like you are really saying perfect sentences, but we know you don't really know what they mean. While we were swimming in Uncle Bob's pool Grandpa Porter said "well, its' time to get out and go home" and you promptly yelled "NO GO HOME!" Everyone heard it, but you can't talk!
You DO know some words. You know Papi's name, but you can't say it. you know "Gus" and "no, no, no." Today we were sure you said "amen" at the end of prayers, but we think you were just imitating us. You can sign more, all done, water, fish, bird, and bye-bye.
We sure love you baby boy. Happy birthday!
