The Best Place in The World

Last friday, Jason took off work so we decided to take a trip to Destin. I was very excited seeing that was only my second time to go to the beach this summer. Yes, it was only for the day...but it helped my beach withdrawals. We went to the outlet mall and shopped, ate lunch, and went to my favorite place SEASIDE! Love it there! So Evan go to experience sand and ocean for the first time. He wasn't too sure about any of it. However, he hated when the waves came crashing down on his feet. I hope he grows to love it lately because mommy and daddy sure do love the beach.

9 Month Check-Up

So last Thursday we took Evan to the doctor due to some problems we were having with his eye swelling around the outside. I attend a bible study on Wednesday morning and the past two weeks he has rubbed his eye so much it started swelling. Well it really bothered me so I made an appointment with the doctor. Everything turned out fine...we still don't know why he is rubbing his eye because it had gone away by the time we went to the doctor. However, we will see how today goes. I think he may be allergic to something in the room where he stay while I am in bible study.

On another note...Evan had his 9 month check-up while we were there. Here are his stats:
Weight: 22 lbs 5.5oz (75th percentile)
Height: 29 1/4 in. (75th percentile)

Jason and I both think Evan weighs more than that...who knows???? BUT, it looks like my son will be taller than me...he is already half my height. CRAZY!!!

So what is Evan doing this week:

• He loves watching "Jack's Big Music Show" and "Wonder Pets" on Noggin (Cartoon's)
• He is pulling up on EVERYTHING!!!
• Crawling EVERYWHERE!!!
• Walking well holding on to mommy and daddy
• Loving this fall weather because he can be outside
• Eating table food
• Drinking GREAT from his cup
• Loves playing with balls
• Still waiting on his two top teeth to make their apperance
• Likes watching football with daddy (according to Jason)
• Sleeping through the night again!!!! YAY!!!

Well I could go on and on, but I wont. But I do want to share with you some of the soild foods Evan has tried so far.

Redneck Wagon

When your GeeGee and Pops live in the country, this is what you get to do for fun...

Yes, you are seeing that correctly. My father-in-law hooked up a wagon to the back of his lawn mower and pulled Evan around the yard. HAHAHA! It was a sight...but Evan seemed to enjoy it!

Are You Naked?????

So the titled is an old phrase Leah use to use while we were in high school...haha. Sorry Leah, I had to use it.

Just wanted to post this cute pictures of Evan with just his diaper and hat...

Milstones

I am sooo excited to be posting this on the blog. For months Jason and I have tried to work with Evan on feeding himself. HE DID IT!!! I was so exciting, I just cheered and he laughed.

Also, he pulled up on his own today. I was working on the computer and the next thing I know he was standing up.

This month has brought many changes to our sweet boys world. He is becoming more and more active. I can't believe how fast he is growing up. As the days go by he becomes more and more of a blessing to Jason and I. I can't express how much joy he puts in our heart.

Love this face!!!



I know this isn't a great picture...he was in turn with playing in the grass. I just wanted to show off his outfit...LOVE IT!

The sweet smile that lights my world.
