Evan really wants to crawl. He just reaches for anything in front of him and then goes flat on his tummy and tries to pull himself up. He’s getting pretty good at it though, I think he’ll be an early crawler.

One of his teachers told me a funny story about him the other day. She was feeding Leilani yogurt and had to leave the room for something so left the yogurt cup on the other side of the bed way out of Evan’s reach. About a few minutes later she heard a frustrated cry so ran back into the room to see Evan on his tummy with his face and one hand covered in yogurt and the other hand in the yogurt cup. I guess he was trying to get the cup to his mouth but couldn’t and thats why he was frustrated.

It’s really funny to see him try and scoot on his tummy. I can’t wait until he crawls; although something tells me I’m going to regret saying that.

School Time!

Evan is in a baby group with 11 month old Leilani. She’s so adorable and tiny; they make the cutest little group together. She’s 5 and a half months older then him but they wear the same diaper size. They have their own little nursery that I bring him to every morning where he does his flashcards, inspirations, finger rhymes and watches his beloved Cherub Wings.

Wasn’t sure exactly what I was allowed to post but these are safe enough.

Ooh, and its my birthday so feel free to send e-mails and presents!

My long overdue post

OK, so I’m back from the XD it was really good, just what I needed.

I came back to a bigger, more grown-up, fatter Evan. He makes all these new noises and sits up and plays with his toys. It’s too cute! We just set-up his crib/playpen and he sits in there for hours “talking” to his toys and trying to eat them. And he’s such a Cherub Wings addict. No matter how hard he’s crying as soon as he hears “Hi! I’m Cherub! And your ganna love this show!” he stops, his whole face lights up and he frantically searches the room for the computer.

I put him in a high chair now and feed him. I can’t eat in front of him because he cries for my food. In fact, he cries for anything that he thinks might be food. It used to be really funny, when he was about 3 months old, now it’s just annoying.

I feed him mushed up banana and blended spinach. He sits in his high chair and drools and sticks his head out as far as it will go and gets all desperate for the food. And I shovel it into his mouth as fast as I can but woe unto me if he finishes his bite of food before I’m ready with the next one.

He’s really changing allot. He’s in a totally new phase now. He knows I’m mommy to him and gets all excited when he sees me.
