My precious, smiling gift.

It doesn't matter how incredibly tired I am.  It doesn't matter that he peed across his room this morning.  It doesn't matter that his poopy diaper leaked all over me a couple days ago.  It all disappears when I look at his smiling little face and remember how absolutely amazing he is!

New tricks!

Evan is learning all kinds of new things, and building up some muscles in the process.  He can now blow bubbles, sit up on his own in his bumbo seat, and stand up with help from mom and dad.

Please excuse the mess in the background.  We just steam cleaned the living room carpet again and haven't moved the furniture back yet.  Walking around the house is like an obstacle course.

Hanging out with dad.

Showing off his big, blue eyes.

Evan recently learned how to grab onto his blankets and burp cloths.

He loves putting them in his mouth and snuggling them against his face.  It's just so much fun!

He's been working on his funny faces lately, too!

So comfy napping on his side.

He's getting pretty good at sitting up, with some assistance of course!

Six years and one baby later, we were very happy to celebrate our anniversary on Saturday.
