Evan Outside

Today Evan was over for a couple of hours. Just before our walk, I decided to take a photo of Evan by my clematis that is blooming like crazy. It is hard to get a picture of Evan. He does not stay still for very long. If I take too long to focus, etc., I miss the photo. Evan is on the go!!!!

Evan Playing

Evan likes to choose toys from "his" room that he wants to play with. He walks out of the room and says "toys." Here he is playing with a ball and looking at a car. The photos were taken right after his bath. See the wet hair. Evan is so much fun.

Alisson and Baby Bump

Alisson was in a wedding on Saturday. She ordered the dress for the wedding in February when she was just pregnant. She ordered a one size bigger. If the wedding had been two weeks later, the dress may not have fit. Alisson looked so cute at the wedding. She covered the baby bump with her flowers. A couple sitting at our table at the reception, did not realize that one of the bridesmaids was pregnant. Alisson allowed me to take some pictures of her little baby bump. If you remember, I took a picture of her with Evan at 8 1/2 months. Alisson is 4 1/2 months pregnant in these pictures. I pray every morning for God to protect this precious baby and to have the little one to grow healthy and strong. Alisson looks so cute in these photos.

So Lucky and Blessed

On Mother's Day I felt like the luckiest Mother. Our son called and wished me a Happy Mother's Day. Later in the afternoon we had Alisson and family over for a Mother's Day dinner. The real surprise happened at church on Mother's Day. Some people mentioned to me about the flowers. I said, "What flowers?" I quickly got a church bulletin. There in the bulletin was stated that the flowers on the altar were in honor of me given in love by Alisson and Terence and grandkids!!!!!!!!! I was so surprised and loved. Of course, I ruined my makeup with my tears of happiness. I am so thankful to God for my family!!!!!!! I feel so blessed. I just had to share the beautiful flowers.

Evan's Pappy

Evan's Pappy plays Vintage baseball and is on the Wood County Inmates team. This is a photo of their new uniform this season.

16 Weeks and Growing

Alisson had her 16 week appointment today. All is well. Praise and thanks to God. The baby's heart rate is 150. Alisson will have an ultrasound next month and hopes to know if she is having a little boy or a little girl. We are so thankful to God for protecting this little life as he or she grows and develops.

Funny Evan Story

Evan was helping his Pappy get corn for the squirrel feeders and bird seed for the bird feeders this morning. I thought this was a cute picture of Evan holding the corn for Pappy. Right after I took the photo, Evan put the ear of corn up to his mouth and said "Banana." Pappy caught him before he put it into his mouth. In his little mind it must have looked like a banana. Too funny!!!

Evan Having a Snack

Evan visited with us at 8:30am today. Around 10:30 I asked him if he wanted a banana. He walked right over to the highchair and said "Eat." When I put him in the highchair, he said, "Baby" and signed baby. He likes to watch the Baby Signing Time DVD while he eats. Evan ate a banana, 2 Ritz crackers for his snack. He then said, "Cookie." In this photo Evan is munching on a small piece of the cookie I gave him and watching his DVD.
