No more veggies!

Today was a fun day! We had lunch with Colleen at Baja Fresh. Evan was very good and even tried to eat his napkin. I figured he was hungry so I gave him some teeny tiny pieces of my chicken and he gobbled it up! That was the first time for meat because I could not bear the thought of pureed chicken and meat. He is no longer a vegetarian! Thanks Colleen for a fun lunch!

Big Boy Day

Today we took Evan out and about to do "Big Boy" things. Since the weather was so nice we went to the park and Evan got to go on the swing.



After the park, we went to the toy store and got a basketball hoop so he can start training for the KU basketball team. Watch for him at the 2029 NCAA tournament! Last but not least, we went to lunch at Red Robin and Evan sat in a high chair at a restaurant for the first time. He did really well and looked at everybody walking past him. He ate pears and butternut squash like a pro. We finished up lunch and went home for a nap. He was such a trooper and really had a fun day!

Watching the grass grow

I just could not resist getting Evan out in the sunshine. It was a gorgeous day and Evan had never really been on the grass. Here are some of my favorite photos. Enjoy!

Waking up

Lately we have been curious what Evan does when he wakes up. He's awfully chatty and usually happy. We have a new tactic. We try to sneak in on our hands and knees slowly and see how close we can get to the crib before he notices us. Here's the latest. Enjoy!

Let it snow!

Over the long holiday weekend we went to Lake Tahoe to relax and take a mini vacation. After the long drive (babies and dogs were SO good), we finally arrived! We went up with The Fay's who's family has a cabin there (Thanks Doughertys!). Todd and Scott C. skiied while the rest of us chilled out at the cabin. We watched the pups forge trails in the snow. Hopefully next time we get up there, we can go sledding with Evan and Hadley.

Love at first sight

I know Valentine's Day is not until Saturday, but I had to share the lovebirds first glance. Ahhh, how romantic!

Where's Evan?

I decided to toss all Evan's animals in his crib and see what he did. Can you find him?

Sit up straight

I am finally getting this whole sitting up thing. Here are a few of my favorite poses...

Me and Iceberg (the Polar Bear)

Reading before bed

Just having fun!

Chillin' at Nina's

Here's looking at you!

Happy 6 month birthday to me!

YUMMO! I LOVE FOOD!!!

Holy cow! Can you believe I'm 6 months old? I finally hit the big time and get to eat real food. Thank goodness because I can't drink that much in one day. I went to the doctor and I'm 19lbs, 8oz and 28 inches.
My mommy is a little nutzo and is making me fruits and veggies. She said she's going to buy the pureed meats because she can't bear the thought of doing it herself. My first food was peas and I loved them! Since then I have tried peas, butternut squash, pears, bananas, sweet potatoes, applesauce and green beans. The green beans were not so good and I think next time Mommy needs to puree them way more.
At first I was getting fed in the swing and when we traveled places, I got fed in my stroller. Finally my parents broke down and got me a big boy high chair. It's great for eating and just taking in all the views from up high. I have had lots of people feed me over the last few weeks. Mumsie, Auntie Sarah, Daddy, Mommy and Auntie Mo. Auntie Sarah even let's me hit the bottle! She rocks!

Weeble Wobble

I got this super cool cat spinner from Marley (Auntie Sarah's puppy) and it's helping me learn to sit up.  Check me out!!!
