The Missing Tree

OK, so the tree is not really missing. We know exactly where it is! Steve and his friend, John, dropped this tree yesterday. Thankfully, I wasn’t home at the time. Steve was nervous about the root system breaking into the foundation, and we just wanted more space in the backyard, so bye-bye tree!

News for some

OK, this is not new news for everybody, but I’m sure someone out there doesn’t know. We’re pregnant! The next comment is usually, “Again??” Yep, again. And yes, we do know how it happens. We just decided to have another one close to Evie so we would be through the baby/toddler years early, among other reasons. I’m about 6 weeks, 5 days along and our due date is March 28, 2006, exactly 14 months after Evie was born. We’ll get to hear the heartbeat is about 2 or 3 weeks and have ultrasound (and learn the gender) in about 13 or 14 weeks.

Steve wanted me to tell everyone that we went to the park today. It had a waterfall, which was not really that exciting because it was really more of a dribble, and a cave, which was more of just a hole in the wall of a cliff. This info would have been more interesting if we had some pictures, but lately we have been too silly to remember the camera for these short trips.

Even More Professional Pictures

Here are the latest pictures, this time with my family instead of Steve’s. Evie is now 6 months old, and apparently decided that she didn’t want to smile this time. She must be tired of these!

More Movie Fun

Here are 2 more movies. In the first Evie is taking her first bite of food that is not milk. I think she had rice. The second is of her first time rolling over (back to front). The full video is actually about 10 mins. long but I got the important part in.

Rolling Evie

Evie has learned to roll from front to back. She can now roll from back to front and then front to back and sort of take off in a sideways direction. Its not quite crawling but it is productive.

First Tummy Movie

Finally a Movie. Here’s Evie a few months ago. I think this is one of the first movies that we have of her (not including the birth movie).

Evie's Newest Trick

Besides learning to roll over (which I will post a video of once I figure out how to post video) Evie is also gaining the gift of balance. Here are some pictures from this morning. Enjoy!



OK, so 2 seconds after these pictures were taken, she fell over. But it’s a start!
The next two pictures are just cute, and I’m adding them for no other reason!

New Professional Pictures

We had pictures taken today! Woohoo! Got Evie to take a good nap and have a nice bottle before we went, and she still decided to fall asleep. At least she smiled this time. Well, without further ado, here they are:

Too Much Rain

Home, Sweet Home

We made back! After a week in Florida for a conference that Steve ran, we are back home. Pictures will be posted as soon as I find the camera and the disk drive that are currently hiding among all the bags we packed for the trip.
