Soccer 2014


Soccer has been very exciting this season. Elijah is on the Green Cheetahs, which is awesome because green is his favorite color! This year they also get to play all of the different positions including goalie. Elijah is much more aggressive this year and has improved a ton in his dribbling and kicking.

Our Little Evelyn

Evelyn is six weeks old this week. The last few weeks have gone by quickly and easily. Evelyn is a very content baby. Thankfully she handles the constant noise and energy of her siblings quite well. Evelyn's personality has really started to show. She is a very happy and very chatty little thing. She always wakes up with a smile on her face. After every feeding she will have a little chat with me. She has a great variety of cooing sounds and she is figuring out how to make the sounds louder and softer (she does surprise herself sometimes with how loud she can be.) She is a good eater and a great sleeper (which makes mommy happy!) Evelyn loves Elijah and likes to stare at him and talk to him. She does well with Emme and will let her hold and snuggle her to a certain point, then as Emme puts it "she just needs mom." Evelyn is wary of Gideon and likes to have mom or dad nearby when he is playing with her. She does like his silly side and it is hilarious to listen to them giggle together. Overall, Evelyn is a fun and happy addition to our family. We love getting know her more and more everyday.

First Smiles

Evelyn has been smiling for a little while now, and today I finally got a picture of it! Evelyn sure does love her big sister.

Baby Belly

My three older babies were big when they were born and them they slimmed out pretty quickly after being born. (Emme lost. 10oz in two days!) It is fun with Evelyn because comparatively she started out tiny and skinny and she has gained a baby belly. I love baby bellys!
