Evelyn has a new ukulele.

Thanks, Grammy Susan!

Derby Day

Evelyn enjoyed the Kentucky Derby. Thanks to the magic of TiVo, she was able to watch it again and again. However, the only part that really held any interest for her was the moment the horses came out of the gate. (“Go, go, horses! Fast!”) In our house, the 137th Kentucky Derby has begun about 300 times, and finished maybe five times.

Grammy Susan

Evelyn was very excited to see Grammy Susan on her recent visit. And what do you do when special visitors come to town (besides wake them up at 5:45 AM)? Take them to the park!

Park

With spring returning in fits and starts, Evelyn has had a few chances to get to the park. She has decided that she’s ready for all the big-kid play equipment. Mom is not 100% convinced.

Easter

Easter was a pretty good time for Evelyn. She got to see her cousin Fiona, hang out at Grandma and Pa’s house, and go on not one but two Easter egg hunts.

Sunglasses

Evelyn has a way of making you feel like paparazzi when you’re standing next to your own car.

Helping

Evie ate a banana and helped make pancakes at the same time.

Manners

Nick — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 16:45:09 +0000

Evelyn has been working on manners, practicing saying “please” and “thank you.” Here she is playing a game where she would run into the kitchen and get some water in a cup, then go back to the living room to pour the water into a different cup. She was very excited about this game, but didn’t forget to be polite!

We’ll work on pronunciation next…
