Thinking genious thoughts about world trade systems? Or Just watching Handy Manny? I will leave that up to you.


Evie's New Hilarious Game

Fat Bottom Girls

And I say "fat" in the most loving and endearing way possible! Haha! In fact, I love my little girl's rolls and pudge. It's one of my favorite things.  I had to get this booty shot one day when she was trying to get one of her toys out of the tub. She's grown even since this picture was taken last week because now she's tall enough to put a leg over and tip herself into the tub! 

Spooning at McDonalds


I can't believe Mom finally let me hold this spoon. 



                                                                   

 
                        
 This isn't so hard, I don't know what the big deal is.                                                                        
                                                           


Now...lets see if I can just get one of those berries. ...Almost...



                                          
                                          

     
                               Forget you, Spoon!
                              



                                                                                


I see you in there! Get in my belly!



                       
                                                
               You do it, Mom.




Never mind. I'll just go native and eat with my hands!
Yogurt is a finger food...right?

"I'm Gonna Getchoo!"

Evie loves to play "I'm gonna catch you" game where I chase her around the house. This is just a little taste of what we usually do nightly, minus the dog involvement, that was a first.

WALKING!!

 My favorite part is when she screams "DADA!!" 

New Tooth!

Finally! Evie's front teeth are coming in! Right now she just has two bottom teeth and has been a grumpy teether for weeks! But yesterday, one of her big front teeth poked through the gum and is on its way in. I don't know whether to be excited that she is going to be able to eat food easier now or sad that my baby is officially a toddler. I've decided that the first year should really be stretched out over two years because I don't feel like I got enough time to have my baby baby. Seth would disagree.

The Cure to Sore Gums...Frozen Sugar!!

Evie has been suffering from teething this past week. She is just starting to get her top two teeth in and I they are just about ready to poke their way through her gums! OUCH! She was having an especially hard time today so she got a treat for her suffering...a banana Popsicle! I was a little worried about letting her hold it by herself at first, but she insisted until I gave in. She did a fantastic job! I was impressed and she seemed to really enjoy herself. So, you are all officially witnessing the first time she fed herself a popsicle.



Stretching Yard Word to the End

This last weekend we had a little bit of time to do stuff on our yard again! I'm trying to get as much done as possible before it gets too cold. I thought that that time had already past but this weekend was gorgeous! So I'm stretching out the yard work again. Seth and I decided that we are going to do three and a quarter terraces in front of the house so I could put flowerbeds there next season. Seth dug the ground down (or up) where it needed to be and I started piling rocks. There is still A LOT of work to be done but here's some photos.



Here are a couple pictures I took of the stone walkway I built.  This is when it was only partially finished but it is all the way done now. I'll take more pictures later. I take pride that I did this all by myself and with rocks that I found in our yard and the empty lots next to us! Yay for free stuff!!
