TWIN GIRLS!

My cousin Beryl is expecting twin girls in June, so her sister Zoe and sister-in-law Lacey hosted her babies shower yesterday. It was nice to see all of the girls in the family. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of Beryl and her cute pregnant belly, but I did get a picture of my cousin Betsy holding Evan  and of course Mamaw had to hold him as well!

Mamaw had to wear a glove to keep her bandage from coming loose.  Very fashionable!

Mamaw got an Ouchie!

Nick and I were planning to go to a wedding on Saturday night, so Mamaw and Papaw came up for the weekend to watch Evan for us. The wedding was supposed to start at 5:00, so we planned to leave at 4:15 or so. At about 3:30 Mamaw was making cookies and needed to open a package of chocolate chips. Instead of getting a pair of scissors, she grabbed a big SHARP bread knife that was laying on the counter and tried to use it to open the bag. Needless to say, she sliced open her pointer finger and it bled like crazy. Papaw thought that she needed to get stitches so they went to the urgent care center. They offered to take Evan with them so that we could still make it to the wedding on time, but we told them that they needed to get Mamaw's finger fixed and not worry about us missing the wedding. When Mamaw and Papaw got home from the urgent care center at 5:15, Mamaw had a big bandage wrapped around her hand because she had to get 7 STITCHES! Poor Mamaw! On a side note, we missed the wedding, but were still able to make it to the reception. Thanks for helping us out Mamaw and Papaw! 

Go Buckeyes!

Evan was ready to cheer on the Buckeyes when they played the big game against Wisconsin last week. Unfortunately, the Buckeyes lost, but Evan still looked pretty cute!

Indoor Soccer

All three cousins play indoor soccer at the YMCA. Caleb and Aubrey are on the Blue 4 and 5 year old team and Noah is on the Yellow 7 year old team. Uncle Nathan and  Aunt Angie coach both teams as well. As you can see in the following pictures, they are all quite a bit taller than the rest of their teammates. We went to watch them play a game on Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately, we didn't get to watch Noah play his game because his game was a couple hours after Aubrey and Caleb's. We had a long drive home, so Evan and I left after the first game. Noah understood and was glad that we were able to watch his brother and sister play.

Aubrey is a tad bit taller than her teammates! 

So is Caleb!

Evan liked watching his cousins play soccer with his Mamaw and Papaw.

Caleb was worn out.

Noah was getting ready to play. 

Noah wanted to warm up, but his dad told him that he couldn't because his game didn't start for another hour. 

Cousins

Nick worked a lot last weekend so Evan and I took a trip to Mamaw and Papaw's house. His cousins were excited to see him!

A Good Hunting Story

Evan has been really chatty lately and here he is talking about going hunting with Daddy.

Dreaming of Hunting with Daddy

Grandpa got this camouflaged shirt for Evan when he went deer hunting in the fall. I can't help but think that Evan is dreaming about going on hunting trips with his daddy and grandpa or even his Uncle Nathan and Uncle Hoss. I am sure that he will be spending a lot of time outdoors in the future!
