Well things have slowed down a little bit and I am so relieved. Last time I just summed up what was going on because I was so overwhelmed with everything going on I didn't want to have to think about what to post. I mentioned that Evelyn walked on her own, and it was so amazing. Andy likes to stand her and get her balanced and then let go to see how long she will stand for and then on the 18th ( My dad's birthday) when he was doing it she just took off, so of course we started having her walk in between the two of us. I'm too scared to do it now though because one time when I was balancing her I thought she was ready and I let go and she fell and landed flat on her face. I felt so bad because usually my reflexes for catching things is really good because I drop things alot but I was too slow this time. So, unless Andy is home to help her she only walks in her exersaucer, which she loves!!
Here's Evelyn walking between us on my dad's birthday
I love this picture of Andy walking Evelyn around.
Last night Evelyn was in her walker(actually it's her exersaucer but I am too lazy to call it that) and I was making cookies(not really, I was putting the frozen stuff in the oven) and I heard alot of noise coming from the walker and then Evelyn started screaming and I looked over and she was RUNNING in circles and screaming(thats her new thing she does when she is happy)! It was so funny I just started laughing my head off which distracted her and she stopped to look at me all confused before she started laughing. I wish I had a video camera because it was so funny that anytime I'm feeling blue I could watch it and I know I'd cheer right up.
This mornign Evelyn had her first big girl bath without the baby bathtub. She was having so much fun kicking and splashing in the water and playing with her ducks. i was loving it too because it was way easier than using the luttle tub. I was jest gettingall of the soap rinsed off and she was lying down splashing when she stopped wiggling(amazingly) and all of a sudden a little pee stream comes flying up and a little yellow cloud appears in the tub, so I had to do it all over again. It was so gross but at least it wasn't poo! I don't even want to think about when I will have to deal with that!!
This is evelyn right after her first bath. I didn't think to take a picture until after the fact so I hurried and drained the tub and grabbed my camera ad snapped some pics so she wouldn't get cold, so thats why there is no water in the top one.
You have to look close to see them, but here are evelyns first teeth!!
She loves having them brushed but she loves to try and do it her self even more. She actually does a pretty good job except she sometimes gags herself.
Evelyn doing her aunt Natalie's napkin trick!!
