RIP Diggity Dan Dog

Diggity Dan Dog, a European-style stroller/car seat toy given to Eddie by Nanni Lauer, is no longer with us. Diggity Dan Dog was a part of Eddie IV's life from December 25, 2008 until April 26, 2009. He was a good toy. He was there when Eddie got his first teeth, and provided much comfort as Eddie would often chew on his strap. He was there when Eddie first learned to eat solid foods, often accompanying the meal. He would hold the spoon for Eddie and "feed" him, and would often eat some of the food himself going "yum yum yum yum yum." His favorites were peas and sweet potatoes. He also enjoyed traveling - Diggity Dan Dog went to music class often, to the Four Seasons for high tea with Mary Bush and to Greek Easter at the Tassaras'. Diggity Dan's last voyage was to Madeline's birthday party and we have not had him since. We hope he is in a better place now...although we cannot imagine a better place than Eddie's world.
