Evan's 1st Birthday

Evan turned ONE on Saturday. We kept things pretty low-key for Evan's Birthday, but had fun nonetheless. Aunt Katie came over for cupcakes and dinner. We sang him, "Happy Birthday", and let him eat his three cupcakes, yes this kid can eat! He got a card in the mail from Nana and Grandpa Bruce. Grandma and Grandpa stopped by with some Tonka trucks and a swimming set for him as well. That was pretty much it. Today Jess gave him Pinocchio on DVD and we had some more cupcakes at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

Evan is a ton of fun to have in our family. He's gaining quite the personality and keeps us all pretty well entertained. He's walking everywhere now-a-days. He loves to chase Ryan around wherever he's running off to at the moment. Recently, he's into cell-phones. He'll pick one up and hold it up to his ear and just jabber away like he's having a conversation with someone. He's learning a few little words. He can say baba= bottle, Dada, Mama, and ba= ball. I finally let him wean from nursing and although I thought I wasn't ready, he's done absolutely fine. I'm trying to get him converted over to cows milk and he's taking to it pretty easily. He is also working on his third and fourth teeth. We have his 12 month check-up soon so I'll have to update with the measurement statistics when I know them. Here are some pictures from Evan's 1st Birthday. Sorry that some of them are a bit redundant.
