Belated Birthday Party

Evan's birthday party was Saturday (only a month after his actual birthday). We had postponed the first party in December because my poor baby was sick and wouldn't you know, he's coughing, sneezing, and weezing again!


Festivities started with our all girl band


Evan waiting patiently to open gifts


Cole on the assist


Evan's Curious George birthday cake


Evan's all time party fave... candles!


Uncle Jerry being a good sport and playing trains


Both train cases are full! The poor kid can barely lift the boxes.


Cheese!


and one of our infamously bad self-portraits from Sunday!

Here's hoping you're staying warm, happy, and well. Say a little prayer that Evan recovers from this lastest bout quickly!

Teeth!

Evan loves brushing his teeth and he also loves his bathrobe we picked up at the last Kidsignments. Here's a few shots we took a week ago.

Our 2-Year Pictures (a little late)

Just like Evan's eventual birthday party, these pictures are his 2-year pics but a few weeks late. We went to Kiddie Kandids and spent too much but I figure this might be it for a while with Conner's arrival around the corner in 2-3 months.

Photos courtesy of Evan

Evan periodically gets a hold of our camera. These pictures were just found on the camera a few days ago. They highlight his latest love... trains.





Happy Wednesday!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I took a break from blogging but now I'm back with a lot of pictures! We have all recovered from the vicious cycle of germs that has been spread around this house. Evan is better from his double ear infections and I even had an ear infection (talk about fun).


This is our Christmas card picture. For those of you that received my vertically/horizontially challenged Christmas cards, understand that I got the best picture I could before Christmas, and as soon as Evan felt better.


Here are Evan and Lola at Cole and Christina's Kids Christmas Party. It was a fun little party with great weather!



Evan and 18-month old Carter took over the bigger kids toys. Carter was a little wild man but Evan was all about being involved.

Evan and cousin Kayla take a spin


Christmas Morning! This was Evan's big gift from Santa. Actually, it's still from Mommy and Daddy because I spent a nice chunk of change on it and why should Santa get all the credit! I was even almost more excited about it than Evan.



Cheese!

Christmas Day at Great-Grandma's


Later Christmas Day at Lola's. Evan is helping with Christmas dinner.


and the last of the presents. We opened for days on end!

Pure bliss! Evan loves all of his presents, especially his trains.


and I leave you with the after-Christmas dance by Evan and Cole from their gift trading this past Monday.

Thanks to everyone for your beautiful Christmas cards and generous gifts. I could literaly open a toy store now! Here's wishing you all a Happy New Year!
