Evan got a really cool sled for his birthday and finally got a chance to use it in his front yard this week. He liked the snow, the sled, and the snowball Mommy made for him, but he had a hard time picking it up since his mittens do not have a separate compartment for his thumb. Next year we will build a cool snowman together. Check out the other photos of Evan in the snow.
This year we spent Christmas at Aunt Julie’s house and had a really good time with the Zelazny family. We have posted pictures from this year’s Christmas so check them out. Fortunately, Santa knew where Evan was staying over Christmas and even came a day early with toys and presents. Thanks to all who made it a great Christmas!
Evan had a fun and busy day on his first birthday. His Grandma Z was in town to help celebrate and about thirty or so other friends came to his party. We got Portillos catered in, along with some of Mrs. R’s famous mostacolli, and some amazing chips and salsa from a neighborhood bar (along with Coca Cola products, beer, and an awesome cake from Costco). I have posted some pictures from the big day – he was exhausted (and missed his morning nap), but he made it through the whole day without any meltdowns until after he went to sleep.
He took the first bite, and kept eating until it was gone. Nice work Evan!
It is hard to believe Evan is one years old today – but today he celebrated his first birthday with family and a lot of friends. Thanks to everyone who made it a special day by calling or coming to the party! Pictures to come soon!
Evan made the switch from formula to cows’ milk this week and is doing great. We have a fabulous dairy out here (Oberweis that delivers milk (and recently added Coca Cola products) so I am excited to start the home delivery.
Evan loves the bath time, especially now since he has the entire bathtub to play in and not the baby bathtub!
I have posted some new photos taken over the last few days. His latest “trick” is to look around things to see you. Whether it is a car seat, a napkin, or a camera…there is no hiding from this one.
Evan decided he needed to dress more VPish today when he showed up to help me this morning. I have to say – he looked pretty darn cute. He is gesturing that I need to work 5 hours today…and only 5 hours today so I can play with him later. Ok – I better do what the VP wants.
Evan has graduated from his baby bathtub to taking a bath in the entire bathtub. Of course all he wants to do is stand up, touch the faucet, crawl in the water, touch the soap dish, play with anything in reach, then crawl around some more. He loves all the space – and you cannot turn your back for a second. Bath time is a new adventure, once again.
