First Big Smiles and Our Little Lady Layla

Isn't baby Evan soooo cute! These are his first smiles that were big enough for Mommy to catch with the camera!!! He's getting so big, but he still can't play with me. That's ok because I sure help with him a lot. He's got to have his bottles and paci put in his mouth many times a day. I try to get it in there, but sometimes Evan ends up with a little formula around the mouth. Maybe he likes a milk mustache OK?? :)

We are a little behind on posting things, so we're gonna do our best to catch you up in the next few posts. Last week we had Layla at our house on Tuesday and Thursday. I think she likes helping out with Evan and playing with me. Check back for more updates soon!

We are back and so is the rain AGAIN!!!

We're never going to be able to have summer fun and work in the garden if we don't get a little hiatus from this rain. Seriously!!! Here are some pictures to catch you up on what we've been up to lately. We've been very busy as usual and we haven't really stopped to catch our breath!

Rain, Rain GO AWAY!

Last night while we were watching the Fair Parade there was a big storm that kept coming closer and closer. We were hoping to at least get to finish watching the parade, but that didn't happen. I was quickly run to Grandma and Pa's car. Evan zoomed off in his stroller to Grandma and Popaw's car and Daddy ran all the way from Audra's house to get our car for Sabra, Paul, and Mommy. It was a crazy night. We got some great candy from the parade and I got to see lots of fire trucks and tractors before we had to rush off. Evan feel asleep during the fire truck part of the parade. I don't know how he could because their horns and sirens were really really LOUD. After the parade we were supposed to head down to the fair for Lynley and I to ride some rides, but the rain just wouldn't stop. So, we have our ride tickets still and hopefully we will get to go back later this week.

Mommy's Boys

Lazy Saturdays

Today was a day for our family to rest and relax at home together. Mommy wasn't feeling good from being up a lot on Friday night with a fever. She woke up in the middle of the night with a fever and even called the dr. She was worried she was going to have to go to the hospital, but after one little call with Dr. Pete all was set straight. I guess that man is pretty important and had a big role in bringing Evan and I into this world. Thankfully after the fever went away it hasn't come back again. So, we all just spent time at home relaxing and the only thing we went out for was more water cooler bottles from Lowes. Boy do they have some really nice riding mowers right outside their door. It's like putting candy at the check out for me! I could have stayed there and checked those out all day!
After going out to Lowes we came back home and stayed and relaxed the rest of the day. I took a 3 hour nap and Evan mostly took short little naps. Mommy and Daddy are raving about how he slept a 7 hour stretch Friday night!!! Daddy even took a little nap too. Mommy got a few cat naps here and there too. All in all it was a great day. Today it's off to church in a little while and then who knows???

Busy, Busy, Busy

Evan and I have had a good week so far. Yesterday we had company all day. Grandma Filler came over and then Kimberly and Kamea came. Kamea and I had a good time playing while Kimberly got to hold Evan.

Thank you Grandma and Pa

Mommy and I are thanking you both for getting me the Winnie the Pooh airbed. I am such a big boy! Daddy put me on it at 6am today and I slept til 8 on it. Mommy told me it was nap time and at first I wanted in my crib but after we read our books I layed down on the Pooh bed, Mommy covered me up and gave me my teddy bear and blanket and I went to sleep. The bear I love is the one Carol sent me right after I was born. Thank you Carol too!

Evan took a nap in his bed today too for 2 hours!!
