Evan

Oh Me, Oh My! We have our hands full already with our first little boy...are we crazy for having another? I would have to say NO! Evan is such a blessing and so much fun! However, he wont be our "little" boy too much longer...he is growing up too fast. The rate at which he is learning and saying new words has been beyond me. It has been amazing to watch and listen to his vocabulary grow over the past month.

I mentioned in my last post about Evan that he started Mother's Day Out. It has been great for both of us! I did not know what to expect or how he would react...but he LOVES it and ask to go to "school" on the days he doesn't go. But we never ever leave home without these two things:

GoGo and PapPap go EVERYWHERE with us. We are supposed to be working on no paci by the age of two. Well, as you can see that its not happening any time soon. However, GoGo is going to have to see a doctor soon...well thats what I've been telling Evan. If you look close enough you can see his left ear needs major repair. Also, GoGo has developed a hole in his face that will have to be repaired. I know surgery will need to be a option for this lovey soon.

In other news Evan is still in love with these:

Trucks, Cars and Tractors

And on any given day you will find his room like this:

I have tried cleaning it, but it's a lost cause. He dumps all the toys right back out of the basket. Don't tell him, but we are getting him a real toy box for Christmas...in hopes this will help the chaos you see pictured above.

Besides the cars, trucks and tractors...Evan loves playing puzzles with his daddy. Its been neat to watch him as he has learned to put the piece's in the correct place. He also enjoys watching video's on monster trucks, tanks, and the saw mill. Thanks to MeMe, we have been able to watch them over and over and over...you get the point.

Also, Evan LOVES watching praise baby DVD's and can sing the chorus of "God of Wonders". It's adorable if I had to say so myself!

In other exciting news, our little man is now only taking one nap a day! YAY! However, he still has days that are tough on him and he wants to go to sleep early but I have to fight hard for him to stay awake. He is also adjusting to napping in his big boy bed in preparation for the transition which will begin Friday night. Yes, this Friday...so please say a pray for Jason, Evan and I. We are hoping this will be a smooth transition.

I am trying to soak up these last few weeks with my first born. It makes me sad to think about my time being limited with him. However, I am super excited about adding to our family. Evan is the sweetest blessing we could have ever asked for. God has amazed me with his blessing of our family. I never thought I could have this much love for such a little being...he is just so precious to us!
