Slippery Slope to One Year

Evie has changed so much in the last few weeks since turning 10 months old. She knows how to fake fuss (awesome!), win a staring contest (by giggling) and even sleep sitting up....no joke. Her window for motivational crawling seems to have passed as her desire to sit up trumps comfort and far away things. Hopefully before we sell our house, she'll be able to explore it on all fours or two. But for now, everything is an object to pull up on...as soon as Bear stays put long enough he'll be the next target.

Quick Update

We're busy. Nothing new there. House is for sale. Evelyn is still not very interested in crawling, but has become an expert at sitting up and pulling up. Perhaps she's thinking about going straight to walking. Time will tell.

Short of a longer update - enjoy a few pictures...

It's been so long that Evelyn is driving.

Updates have been slow to appear lately. Apologies. Life interferes.

Evie's doing well got two front teeth and is finally interested in the idea that she doesn't have to just remain in one place all day long. Crawling is on the horizon - probably a little while to go though.

9-months old on Thursday - on one hand i can't believe that it's gone by this fast, on the other hand it sure feels like she's been part of our life forever.

A video for now and hopefully some pictures to follow.

Our Little Valentine

Our little Valentine posed for a pic right after she ate dinner tonight. Don't worry, she isn't this neat of an eater, I cleaned all of the carrots off her face first. She is a Hare and loves her carrots.

Is that a cow or a duck?

I'm not sure either - probably not the best practice to give weird hybrid animals to a developing child. Bathtime is still super fun for Evelyn even though she's about outgrown her baby tub.

Sittin' Pretty

Evie can finally sit all by herself. She can be entertained just by placing several toys around her on the floor. She grabs one, chews it, and puts it back to go for another. Kind of like our other baby, Bear.

A Sink Full of Fun

Playing in the sink seemed like a great way to entertain Evie....until my little smartie pants figured out how to turn on the water.
