7 months

Evan turned 7 months on the 8th. He’s growing up so fast I can barely keep up. He has all these new cute things that he does and he interacts with me allot more, tries to crawl and gets excited about seeing me and watching videos. I do allot more with him these days, playing and reading books and whatnot. I set aside a bit of time for “parent time” every evening.

I’m changing his diet now because he needs allot more then what he’s currently eating which is mainly yoghurt and vegetables. I’m starting to blend up meat and rice for him to eat and he seems allot happier. It’s at this stage that I feel more like a mother and I can enjoy being with him allot more than babysitting him in his newborn stage.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Happy Birthday to my two beautiful sisters Maria and Melanie! Wish you guys were here, you’re both so fun and bubbly, I miss you tons! Sorry for stealing the photos off your blog, Melanie, I didn’t want to, only I didn’t have any of my own. I love the last one, it’s so classic and brings back memories of Maria.
Anyways, I love both of you girls tons and tons and I’m praying that the Lord supplies all of your hearts desires this year!

Teething

Evan was really naughty last night and a grouch today but I realised he is teething. His bottom gums are swollen, it looks like he has two teeth coming in. It’s about time, he’ll be 7 months in less then a week and he’s still sporting his toothless grin. I’m guessing thats why he had a fever this last week. I can’t wait to take photos of him with teeth!

Happenings

Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. This last week there’s been a flu going around and Evan and I both caught it. Evan had a very high fever for two days, it went down yesterday, thank the Lord and today he’s recovering. He’s so docile when he’s sick, just sits on my lap quietly. Today I was with him all day and he pretty much just slept, watched baby Einstien (I’m expanding his horizons from just Cherub Wings) and read books with me. He lost his appetite; he’ll drink the occasional bottle but its so weird to wave food in front of his face and have him stare blankly at it. But he looks allot better today he laughs and talks with me, so thats good.

In any case, it doesn’t look like he’s lost any weight and as long as he keeps his adorable cheeks, I’m happy. I’ll post some new pics, as soon as I get around to taking some.

In other news, David is leaving to Monterrey/States November 12th. He’ll be gone 5 weeks, comes back December 20th. So it’s sad times ahead for me. I wanted so much to go with Evan as well to visit but it looks like it’s not going to work out this year. But I heard rumors about a family reunion next year in April. So I’ll see; hopefully I can go then if it does pan out.
