Crawling

Here is a short clip of Evan crawling.

Big 24 Hours

In the last 24 hours Evan has started to crawl, wave, and got his first tooth. He must know tomorrow is his 9 month Birthday! I am out of room on his calendar for everything he did today so it is a good thing he is in bed now! Who knows what tomorrow will bring??

New Year's Eve

This year we spent our new year's eve with Jennifer, Brian, and Caleb and Bart, Lisa, and Carson. Evan had fun playing with all of Caleb's big boy toys. He especially liked the train table. He tried to grab the train each time it went by.

Here is a picture of all the moms and boys.

We left around 1130 and got home right before midnight. I was upstairs feeding Evan when the ball dropped so Adam paused it for me. Here we are right after our "fake" midnight:

Kitchen Cabinets

I've been letting Evan play in the tupperware cabinet while I cook and do dishes. He loves it! This morning he tried to climb in.

38 weeks

38 weeks then....

and now......

Evan has been out for as long as he was in! Adam and I talked about what we felt was longer. Adam thinks the pregnancy was longer, I think this past 38 weeks was longer.....but much more exciting!

Christmas in July?

No it is December, but Saturday the temperature got up to 68 degrees! We took advantage of the nice weather and got Evan outside for a few minutes. We took his new truck out and he rode it down the sidewalk. He loved having the wind blow in his face.

Christmas with Adam's family

Adam's family came over around 10 on Christmas morning for breakfast and to exchange gifts. Evan was a little grumpy because his schedule had been so out of wack all week.
He got an elf on a shelf from Uncle Aaron. Next year we will name the elf and he will help keep an eye on Evan and report back to Santa....so he better be good!

He also got an Ohio State chair from Grandma and Grandpa. It will be great for the basement after it is finished!

Here he is tryign on Daddy's new hat.

Everyone left in the early afternoon and we spent the rest of the day relaxing and playing with his new toys. It was a great first Christmas!
