Miss Independence

Evelyn loves to explore the world around her - by herself! She found her walker and decided to get in it without the help of mom. She got in it all by herself, but when I looked closer--I saw that both her legs were stuck in one leg hole. She was content like this for about 10 minutes, just talking to herself. She was just as proud as could be that she was able to climb into the seat without mom! She is my little Miss Independence!

Belly at 13 weeks

The belly has "pooched"! I am 13 weeks into the pregnancy - YAY!!! A good friend noticed the belly today so I thought it was worthy of a blog post!!! Since I was in Colorado last week, I had to reschedule my 12 week appointment for May 7th! I am so anxious to get in for a check up and to find out how things are progressing! I am over my morning sickness - finally - and I feel great!! Time to bring out the stretchy pants!!! YIPEE!!!

Denver Trip

Evelyn and mommy flew out to Denver, CO to visit Grandma and Grandpa Meador for a week. It was a last minute trip and we had a blast!! Evelyn played with her grandma and grandpa and snuggled in bed almost every morning with them. She got to play with her three cousins Maci, Ellie and Presley. We went shopping, we went to Chuck E Cheese, we went to the park (in grandma's backyard), we went to church with them...we had fun! In the down times, I got to sit back and relax and I watched about 5 movies that I have been wanting to see for a long time and just haven't had the time to do so - or it was too much of a 'chick flick' so Gordon wouldn't watch it with me. Mom and I watched The Perfect Man, Pride & Prejudice, The Devil Wears Prada, Dreamer and Dance with Me. It was so nice to get a week of relaxation and Evelyn had a lot of fun with her grandparents!
