April 2010

Cal loves to venture out back and play alone (supervised of course)...he especially enjoys it when there's puddles

Great Grammie & Papa's Visit

This past weekend my grandparents came to meet Evvy and to visit with the rest of us. We had a great time catching up, playing, and cooking. Come back soon Great Grammie & Papa!

Great Grammie's first time holding Evvy

Unfortunately Evvy's 2mth shots coincided with Grammie & Papa's arrival so it wasn't until dinner time that they were able to hold her. Evvy seemed to be very tender and mommy-bound after her doctor appointment.

Cal tried to help Great Papa soothe Evvy by singing to her and rubbing her head

Since Cal has been potty training, nearly since birth, he was unfamiliar with the button up pants. So, while in time out (and without toys) he found out that his pants could unbutton and when called to talk to Daddy after time out he was a little worried that he couldn't re-button the pants.

Cal sportin' his new hat that was handmade by cousin Maureen

Rock those spiderman-underwear hats!

hmm...

Evvy also got a hat from Maureen

color time

Humboldt Visit 2010

For superbowl weekend we went to Humboldt to visit family. We started the trip with a dinner out with friends and family then trecked up to Aunt Ginger & George's for a weekend stay. We had a great trip and we so happy to be able to have some time with our friends & family, many of who met Evvy for the first time during this visit. We already miss all of you, see you soon.

This was the first time Great Grandma Sears met Evvy...aw
