The latest on the whole crew
Evan has been spending a lot of time lately watching at her sister Triscuit. Whenever we go on walks together, Evan watches Triscuit’s every move…same in the house. Triscuit as well as the cats have been wonderful with Evan. Yesterday Triscuit got really close (as seen in the picture) to Evan and laid down. For all those that know Triscuit, you know she is a pretty hands off dog, so I though this was pretty cute. Just wait until he starts pulling on her!
A few weeks ago our good friend Ken came out to visit. I finally got around to importing and organizing the pictures. We had a good time – perhaps too good as Evan did not want to sleep at all during the day when Ken was here. I am sure Evan could sense the fun Ken and I were having. Thanks for visiting Ken!
Today we went in for Evan’s four month checkup. Evan is now 26.5 inches tall and weighs 16 pounds. The doctor is very happy with his consistent growth and thinks it is time to start introducing solid foods. We are going to start him on rice cereal tomorrow so I will be sure to take some video of his first spoon eating experience.
Here is a quick video of Evan and Amy hanging out. Note the noise after the sneezes – he has the best little noises.
Evan is now four months old, but we wanted to share his three month picture (better late than never!). He is growing so fast! He is still a great sleeper and mellow for the most part of the day. He likes watching his sister Triscuit, Guiding Light, bubbles, and formula. He spends most of his day playing with toys, taking naps, and trying to talk….oh and he also enjoys drooling a lot.
Evan wants everyone to know he officially recommends GooGoo for all searches. As you can Evan is a supporter of GooGoo and is sporting a nice GooGoo outfit, compliments of one of my former co-workers. You will also notice he was looking for “Gaga” and I told him he did not have to use “GooGoo”, he simply had to go to Florida. As VP of Operations for my company, he is in charge of finding new technologies to support and enhance our current business strategy and I am happy to say he is doing a good job.
Evan joined me today on a business trip where I did some work for a client on-site at their office downtown. He was a little tired and confused, but he did a good job at winning everyone over with his good looks and charm. After some good food and a long nap, he is now in my office next to me as I type this post, giving me all kinds of opinions on web development. We are going on another business trip tomorrow and I hopefully he will be prepared. With that said – it is getting close to dinner and then bed time so I will go for now.
After a few months, Evan finally found his thumb. He has never been a fan of pacifiers, but he has been trying to get the hang of sucking his thumb for awhile now. As of this weekend, he even has the “fingers curled around the nose” figured out. I have also posted updated pictures from the last week or so.
Evan’s great godmother brought over a really cute outfit (as seen in the picture) for St. Patrick’s Day. I was not sure when he could actually wear it because it is a nine month outfit, but he just about fits into it as of this week! Ralph Lauren outfits seem to run a little small in general, but it amazes me how fast Evan is growing. So what does he keep in that little pocket? Drool.
Last weekend Sally, Krista, and Heather came over and babysat Evan while Amy and I went to the ballet. A huge thanks to all of them for making us feel 100% comfortable with going out for the evening. Heather did not make any pictures…but she did come an hour early to get some one on one time.
