Just some cute pics!

Mikey has been going on A LOT of interviews lately... Evan wanted to dress up too.

We decided to convert Evan's crib into a toddler bed (since we can't get him into the big boy bed and bedroom we got ready for him about a year ago.) We woke up the next morning and found him like this. Staring at the tv which was not on lol. Looking in the monitor and seeing my kid not in his bed was not fun. Thank goodness every day after this one he has stayed in his bed and yelled for me or Mikey.
I know I have posted pictures like this in the past but I just love it. He still always has to sit at the door and watch his Daddy mow the lawn. He thinks his Daddy is the coolest. He loves when Mikey is done mowing so he can go out and help with the rest of the yard work. I really love it too... awww, some piece and quiet in the house. :)

My cousin Tiff has twins, Max and Emma, who are almost 3 years old. Unfortunately, we live far away from each other so we don't see much of each other. Her and I grew up best friends and hope for our kids to be close as well so we have to work harder at getting together... are you listening Tiff? :) Here is Evan and Max giving me their cheesy 3 year old smiles for the camera... love it!
Evan is happiest when he is outside playing. I'm counting down the days until fall.

My friend Debra and her little girl, Jocelyn, came over to play. Evan gave her lots of love... and hopefully not a virus....

because later that night he looked like this. Fever! Ugh! Oops... really hate when that happens. Didn't see it coming at all.

Every time he puts this hat on I seem to run for the camera. So stinkin cute!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy 3rd Birthday Evan!

So Yummy!

We bought a bunch of bubbles for the kids but I think Evan emptied them all out before anyone could play with them... sorry everyone. lol!

Ava (friend)

The day after the party we had a fun time opening everything up and playing all day.

This happened over night...superheroes! He is still convinced that Spider Man is a bad guy no matter what we tell him...I'm actually ok with that for now. He is really into Batman and that is enough for now. He is getting so old so quick!

Evan loves his binoculars! Thanks Virginia, Mike, Alex, and Monique. He takes them almost everywhere.

First time flying a kite. It was hilarious! It took a LONG time but Mikey finally got it in the air...for a little while.

Grandma and Grandpa came over for a birthday dinner.

Evan didn't have too much fun at Famous Daves for his birthday dinner. He was too afraid the dress up guy was going to come. So head down playing ipod helped some.

Excited to open more presents from Mommy and Daddy!

Every year for Evan's birthday I buy him a book and write to him in it and put pictures of him at that age. Something he can have forever. Really did good this year with this book. He loves it a lot. He even tells me daily that he wants to name his little sister My Favorite Michael. :)

I am not a big fan of pinatas. They actually scare me a lot. So, this year when Evan wanted one we talked him into letting him pick one out on his actual birthday and take turns with Mommy and Daddy. I know what you are thinking.... but he is 3 yrs old and we got away with it. He was actually very happy and excited about this idea. Probably won't work for the future. Once it was all smashed up (by Mikey) we all had a lot of fun hunting for candy in the backyard. It flew everywhere.

Easter

First time decorating eggs. We had a blast!

The Easter Bunny brought Evan lots of wonderful goodies.

I love this picture of Cody with his little foot hanging out.
They play so good together now... I love it!

I read the books at nap time and Mikey reads at night time.

Mikey started holding Evan this way and reading to him at night around 6 weeks.

Around 7 mo. Mikey said that he was going to have to turn him around soon because he was getting too big to hold this way. As you see here around 9 mo. it still continues...

and he is still stitting this way...

and today he is still sitting this way. He doesn't want to sit any other way. Evan gives the best night time snuggles. Sometimes we get him to bed later then we want because he just gets so lovey and cute at this time. He knows just how to work his parents.

Cold rainy day... perfect for rain boots. Michelle gave us Nathan's rain boots and they now fit Evan perfectly.

Bumblebee showed up as a special surprise at Marty's Transformers birthday party! Everyone was very excited and rushed outside to see... except Evan and I. We stayed inside and watched from the window. :) Evan was very happy that he was too big to come into the house.

I think these two were more excited then the kids.

Marty turns 6! Happy Birthday little man!

Pinata time!

Checking out all his goodies.

Serenity did an amazing job making the pinata. She told me it was a lot of work for something that was just going to get smashed up lol.
