Lately...

Just some random photos.. I'll get back into the swing of this now!

Evan's Doctor Appointment

Yesterday Evan went to the doctor for his 6 month check-up! He got another A+! He is SO good at the doctor- he gets very shy, but he doesn't complain and lets Dr. Hillery poke and prod at him. He has had a weird diaper rash and Dr. Hillery said that that was probably because he was developing a skin sensitivity to the diapers or wipes we are using. So, Eric went out and grabbed some Huggies at the store. After only ONE Huggies, his rash is all better. We also are putting on some Hydrocortisone cream so it won't itch so much, because she noticed that he seemed to want to scratch.

Evan's Stats:
Birth- 8 lbs. 5 oz. 20 inches
6 months- 18 lbs. 8 oz. 27 inches

I CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT TEXT, PICTURES, TEXT, PICTURES... DRIVING ME CRAZY! IF YOU KNOW, PLEASE COMMENT & TELL ME!

Anyways, the pictures above are then and now..

5

Well, 5 months have come and gone..
Evan was born 5 months ago. There have been ups and there have been downs. There have been challenges and it's been a whole lot of fun.
We are so happy to have our little cuddlebug in our lives. He's so sweet and fun and while he may be a pain in the butt sometimes, well.. Boys will be boys! : )

In FiVe months, this little baby (who I can barely call little anymore) has learned so much and made us learn so much as well. It's amazing to watch him grow and learn each and every single day. He is so unbelievably smart. Each day with him is a little present. A year ago, Eric and I could have never imagined we would have a baby like Evan. A year ago, Eric & I had no idea what we were getting into.

In FiVe months, Evan has learned to laugh and to smile and... to cry when we walk away for a minute. His cute little smile with his tongue sticking out and his big dimples make every hard moment worth it. He's got two little teeth that are hoping to make an appearance soon & he wants to crawl so bad. All in time little one...

Rearranged

Well, we totally rearranged our bedroom the other day. Now you don't have to walk AROUND the bed to get to the closets and bathroom. I LOVE IT! Eric isn't sure yet.. I think he would be happier if we had better window coverings. I told him I would figure something out. Regular blinds just don't cut it for him. We also stacked our bookshelves on top of our dresser and it makes for a pretty cute presentation of my books and his Brewers stuff!

Evan's room got rearranged a while ago. Not much changed. I switched the chair and the toys and I put the crib in a corner instead of against a wall.

New Blog

I've decided to start a new blog dedicated to my new family.
To Eric, the light in my life, who teaches me and laughs with me each and every day.
To Evan, my baby boy, my reason for everything I do.

I don't know where I would be without them and I am so grateful to have them in my life. They are everything to me.


Anyways, my new blog (Mommy Notebook) will contain stories, pictures, recipes and lots of fun! I hope everyone will follow!
