Dinner time at our house

Last night Evie was having dinner while I cleaned up the kitchen. When I noticed her getting low on food I'd scoop more onto her tray. Then a little while later I look over and noticed where the food was going.




Here's what I found when I took the tray off!

Learning to Walk!

Jay's parents were here over Labor Day and got Miss Evie up on her feet and walking behind a push toy handed down from her cousin, Lane. She's a pro now!




It's only 7 seconds - about how long it takes to get across the room - but look at those little legs figuring things out!

Evie's 1st Cardboard Castle

Late in August Jay built Evie a "Cardboard Castle" from several large boxes. She thought it was dandy and I'm sure it's only the first of many such creations in our future. She loved playing in it almost as much as Jay enjoyed building it for her. It was complete with three doors, two windows and a skylight.

Here she is checking it out for the first time.


Jay is showing her the side entrance - you know - for when the main entrance isn't convenient.


Playing peek-a-boo through the window.


This is after Mommy did a little decorating with blankets.


Even Velcro thought it was fabulous!
