Oh the weather outside is frightful...

So there is at least five to six inches of snow out here, and because of it, it has caused some interesting travel problems for my family. The good news is that they were able to get out of Colorado, the bad news is that they have to stay the night in New Mexico because the roads there are closed. Hopefully tomorrow they will be able to get home safely.

Evie had her first trip outside in the snow. We bundled her up nice and snug and took her outside to see it, and naturally she slept through it. We hope soon to see her playing in it and going on her first sled ride.

Happy Turkey Day!

Today was Evie's first Thanksgiving and it was a blast. The food was good, the company was great, and the entertainment was excellent. Evie spent most of the day shifting from the arms of everyone here, including her Unkie KJ, who really didn't have a choice but I put her in his arms anyways. The day was topped off by our first really good snow. They are predicting about three inches, which makes us all very excited.

The best thing, or at least one of the most entertaining things is when Evie decided to show how much she was thankful for her daddy by projecting her vomit all over him once he got to hold her. :)

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and good luck with Black Friday shoppers!

One month old!!!

So its hard to believe, but Evie is officially one month old, how this happened, I have no clue, but it has. Tomorrow is going to be our first Thanksgiving as a complete family and we are so excited. Evie's Aunt Katie, Unkie Zach, and Unkie KJ have come to join us, and I dont think Auntie Katie is going to let her go, we will see what happens over the next couple of days.

Other than that, Evie's head control is improving, she loves to keep it up and look around at whats going on. Her eyes are still an amazing grayish blue which we hope they stay, or at least become completely gray, and she is a drooler like no other. The only sad thing is that she has a bad case of baby acne on her the right side of her face due to the fact that that is the side she sleeps on, other than that, things are excellent.

Bath Time!!

Evie is doing great. She is staying up more during the day and sleeping more during the night. Her head control is amazing. She can now lift it and hold it for almost a minute. She also loves holding her head up while you are burping her and moving it around side to side. She has to be able to see whats going on or she tends to get a little fussy.

Since her umbilical cord finally fell out, she gets to take full body baths, which she definitely seems to enjoy much more than the sponge bath. We think that she will definitely be one of those kids who never wants to get out of the water, rather its the tub or a pool.

OSU game

Here is Evie watching the OSU game. She is just a happy baby.

It's about time

So, after finally burning the photos to a dvd, we now have room on our camera's memory card to take pictures once again! Evie is doing great. At her last doctors appointment a week ago, she was at 8lbs, 2oz and was 21.25" Luckily for us, she has been sleeping from anywhere from 4 hours to 5 hours at a time at night which is GREAT! Skylar and I are thinking that she will either play soccer or become a swimmer because the girl can kick! Changing her diaper has become an Olympic event. She cannot keep her feet still, which has led to some interesting diaper placements. Everything is going great and we are ready for Christmas to come so we can see everyone!

Currently Skylar's mom Cathy and his sister Malayna are visiting us for a week and she is so happy to see them, as are Cathy and Malayna :) We will have more pictures posted soon!

These pictures are of us watching the OSU/CU football game. Evie will either be going there or BC if I have anything to say!

PS. We have gotten professional pictures done and they should be up soon along with a website where you can order some if you would like.

Not So Silent Night

Rock Lobster

Evie was a lobster for Halloween. Nevermind that it was a dog costume...

More Cuteness

Every day is a new adventure, and Evie seems to be more and more aware of things around her. Mommy is completely enamored with baby, and they are so cute together.

Evie is off the bili-blanket, so no more glowworm. Although the glowing was cute, we're glad that she's healthy!
