Week 14 in Review... by Evan

This week I went swimming (but Mommy forgot the camera). The neighborhood pool is close by and there's hardly anybody there at the same time as us, so it's like having our own pool but without the hassle. Mari and Dane came with us to the pool the day that I went swimming. Hopefully next time we'll get a picture.

We've been playing in the yard some, but it went from raining all the time to 100-degrees, so those play times are short. Someday, maybe I can have a sandbox out here to play with the kitties (but they're not allowed in it, cuz they'll think it's a potty). Ok, that was icky, but true!

Bye for now!

Happy 3 Months!

Here's Evan in his Bumbo seat (thanks Dawn for the great present!) He's getting much better at sitting with assistance, and can help me cook from his seat on the island in the kitchen.

He's growing well... and according to the charts is at 50% for height and almost 50% for weight, which are higher than his percentages at 2 months, so we must be doing something right. He'll have the next official check at 4 months, but I sneaked a peak at his trends by weighing him on the cat scale at the vet clinic and getting out the tape measurer at home to check his length. I couldn't stand the suspense!

He's laughing more and has a better attention span. He'll even look at the pages on a book if he's in a good mood. Kind of fun to see his personality coming out..... no surprise here, but he's a laid-back kiddo. Definitely takes after Daddy in that department!

Week 13 in Review... by Evan

Well, another week has gone by. This past one was pretty low-key for Mommy and me. Mostly, we just hung around the house and ran errands... not nearly as exciting as last week was (but that will be hard to top!)

I'm getting into the swing of things and am on a schedule now (although Mommy pretty much let's me change that whenever I want.)

Week 12 in Review... by Evan

This week Mommy, Granddaddy, and I pulled off the greatest surprise. Mommy & I went down to Houston Saturday while Grandmommy was at her church retreat. The three of us went to a candlelight ceremony during the retreat and surprised her... well "shocked" her might be a better description. She was so happy to see me that I talked Mommy into staying in Houston til Tuesday so I could get as much special Grandmommy love as possible.




Last week I also had my first playdate with my buddies... Dane, (me), Annabelle, and Anderson.... we're all only days apart in age, so it'll be fun to have lots more playtime through the years.

See ya next time!

Week 11 in Review... by Evan

Hello!

Another fun week has gone by. We've had a week of friends... had dinner with Sara, Fred, Julia, Oscar, and Rick on Tuesday and yesterday spent all day with Mari & Dane - walking, swimming, and catching up. It's a lot of fun for me and for Mommy.

I'm getting better at taking my naps and slept from 9pm-6am last night ---- that's a record and Mommy enjoyed the uninterrupted sleep (but missed out nighttime chat). In addition to sleeping more, I'm continuing to be more alert and notice my toys, people, and kitties. More fun for everyone!

See you soon!

Weeks 9 & 10 ... by Evan

Mommy & I have been busy hanging out again these past couple weeks. We run errands and go on long walks around the neighborhood. And, Daddy took some days off around the 4th of July, so I got to play with him then too.

I'm smiling a lot, laughing, and mimicking sounds... so I'm definitely more fun for Mommy & Daddy (not to mention the friends and neighbors). My favorite activity is the musical/lights bouncy seat that my friend Adam loaned me. What else is new? Mom is planning my baptism for Aug 19th... so mark your calendars for that!

That's it for now... talk to you soon~

Wow! I'm 2 Months Old!!

Time to celebrate.... I'm 2 months old. So far, so good! The time has flown by!
