Big Boy Bed

It happened. I was coming out of our bedroom, groggy, half awake and I saw him rubbing his eyes. I looked to my left and Pat was asleep on the couch. I looked back at Evan. I said aloud "did you get him out of his bed?" without opening his eyes Pat said "no". That night we put him down only to hear the door knob jiggle and the door open. No baby appeared. I walked into the dark. No baby. I heard something move behind the door. There he was. I asked him how he got out of his bed. He came out from behind the door and said "Mama Stuck". I lifted him up into his crib and asked him again, "how did you get out of your bed?" Evan then proceeded to climb out. He was in the far right corner, he hiked his right leg up and flung it over the rail, then used his upper body to lower himself to the ground. I am amazed at how strong this kid is. ***side note*** We were at he park last weekend and there was a real cute little girl (6years old) and he acting the fool to get her attention. He even said "Mama pull-ups". I'll be damned if he did not want to do pull-ups to get this girls attention. I know teenage boys do stupid things to get girls attention, but a 1 year old!?! come-on!

Finally Found What I was looking For!!

You know when you have your heart set on something how it is hard to settle for less? Well, I've been looking for a photographer who is not just a portrait taker, but someone with artistic talent. Let's face it, if you have ever tried to take pictures of your child you know how hard it is to get that perfect picture. Child moves faster than snapshot. Well, through a friend I found her. Rhonda Thompson - GIRL HAS GOT TALENT. I am so amazed with the pictures she took of Evan. The pictures are works of art. I'll post more when I get them but for now check out these amazing moments she captured. Also check out her website and if you need a talented photographer to make you look as good as she made me.... CALL HER!!

Happy 2010

Happy New Year!
Evan is back in "school" he goes Mondays and Thursdays. His teacher said he was sad on the first day, he kept asking for Mama and Dada. But he played nice and made us some arts and crafts for the fridgerator. Other than that we've played in the snow, had a great Christmas, spent time with "girl cousin" that's what he calls Averie. Hope all is well and no one has given up on us we are still alive, but exhausted when we finally get Evan down to sleep.

Visit with Kitty

We had a nice visit with Kitty on Sunday. Evan is just about as big as Kitty. He was a big helper raking leaves.
On a side note:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNT TERESA!!!

Here is Evan in his granddaddy Jim's lap enjoying a book.

Happy Halloween

We did not take Evan tick or treating, mainly because he did not have a costume -because his mom is cheap - but it was cold and raining and UT was playing South Carolina.
Averie turned 1. Evan had some of her birthday cake and it turned him into a wild man. I think I will tell him he is allergic to chocolate.
