Before Bed....

Kyle absolutely loves for he and his brother to dress alike....I am not sure why because I have never pushed it but he has always asked. So when Kyle found Lighting McQueen pajamas the other day and they also had Evan's size we got both of them a matching pair. The boys looked SO cute! So of course I tried to get a picture of them....

Well the first one didn't turn out so well... Evan is trying to escape!

Yes, take two got a little worse...Evan was REALLY trying to get off the couch.

So both boys got off the couch and finally take three....we got a good picture! Okay so I must tell the truth and this was really like take 32...but who's counting! :-)

Now I know why Evan was trying to get off the couch, he had a phone call to make!


Now that Evan is "off the phone" He had time to stop and smile for a picture!

Evan's first birthday

Where in the world did this year go?!?! I absolutely can not believe Evan is one year old! He has grown up so fast right before our eyes that it is almost unbelievable at how much he is doing daily.

A couple of weekends ago we had Evan's first birthday party. I am so glad that all our family could attend and celebrate with him. We were able to get one family picture before everyone arrived.

Since we met at a restaurant, everyone was able to order exactly what they wanted off of the menu. I have to admit I was very nervous about having a party this way but it really worked out. We requested the private dining room so the children all got to run round and play. It was nice.

After dinner, and when it was time to cut the cake, I was able to get the first birthday hat on Evan. This is the only picture we have of him in his hat, because he kept it on for about 2.5 seconds.

And as you can tell, Evan definitely, positively does not like cake or any part of the whole cake smashing process! Which I guess this is a good thing that he doesn't like cake or icing. However I must admit....he DEFINTELY did not take this trait after me!! :-)
