Like Father, Like Son

Burying Mommy in the Tunnel



Playing With the Farm

Playing with the egg.

Tunnel Vision

Evan loves crawling back and forth through this tunnel. Sometimes he even crawls to the side, making the tunnel roll over onto him. He just giggles and giggles. 

Cheesy Grin

Mamaw's Farm Quilt

Evan had fun playing on the "Numbers on the Farm" quilt that Mamaw made for him. It was actually supposed to be a fabric book that she made into a quilt for Evan. He just kept going from square to square looking at all of the different animals and bright colors while I read to him what each one said.

Busy Playing

I have not been good at keeping up with this blog lately. I've had every intention of sitting down and working on it, but I just keep getting sidetracked. Often times when I think about working on the blog, I talk myself out of it because I would rather spend my time doing something else. I've been spending quite a bit of my time on the living room floor playing with Evan. He has so much fun playing with anything that he can get his hands on. He tries to pull himself up on or climb over anything that is halfway stable. This has made the decor in the house (at least anything that he can reach) almost nonexistent. I love to watch Evan's little face light up when Nick or I do something as simple as sit on the floor with him. He crawls over to us as fast as he can, pulls himself up and then eventually tries to climb up and over us. He has so much energy and excitement about everything. He is such a friendly little boy who smiles at mostly everyone that he meets. Everyday I am amazed even more with what he has learned to do.

Too Much Jumperoo Fun!

Closed Doors

I had to shut the guest bedroom and bathroom doors because Evan kept crawling into those rooms and being nosey. 

Into Everything

Evan is now able to pull himself up in order to search through his basket of toys.

Happy 4th of July!

Watching the Cedar Point fireworks at the Jackson Street Pier with Daddy. 

Evan watched his first fireworks with Mommy on her birthday. 

Helping Hand

Aubrey wanted to help feed Evan his bottle. 

Island Hopping


The boys on the top deck of the Jet Express on our way over to Kelleys Island and Put-In-Bay

Uncle Nick and Noah skipping rocks into the lake.

Nick helped Evan get his feet wet in Lake Erie. 

Evan and Mommy enjoying the beautiful day. 

Walking on the boardwalk through the woods. 

Noah was our fearless leader. 

Noah showed us which way to go on the trail.
Poor Noah was tired of walking... we didn't realize the trail was SO LONG!

Noah took a little break while Uncle Nick went to get the golf cart. 
Thank goodness for a cold bottle of water and the golf cart!


Evan fell asleep while we were driving around the island on the golf cart. 

Noah enjoyed the playground in the park at Put-In-Bay. 

Evan LOVED the swings! 
Noah took Evan down the big spiral slide.


Checking out the pirate ship where Uncle Nick sometimes works. 


The boys went swimming. 


Noah loved playing underneath the waterfall. 


Noah played really well with Evan in the back yard. 
Noah was writing about all of his adventures in his daily journal for his mom and dad to read when they get home. 


Backwards PJs

One morning, I thought Evan's pajama feet looked a bit strange...Nick had put Evan's PJs on backwards the night before!  

Funny Faces

A couple of weeks ago, Nick, Evan and I enjoyed a beautiful evening outside watching a fire in our fire pit. Evan was very animated that evening and I happened to catch a few of his funny faces on camera!
