Happy Halloween

We had so much fun with Evan this Halloween! It was so cute seeing him so excited and running from house to house. As you can see, he was dressed up as Dracula and has two little bat tattoos on his face. Grammy and Poppy came by, which we loved and Evan was so excited to see them. We had a blast! We had a hard time getting him to come in the house. The Bullitt County sherriff's department came by and they were handing out light sticks. I thought that was really nice. Evan loved them.

Punkin Carvin at the Webster's 2007

We carved the three pumpkins that we got from Huber's tonight. It was fun. We were going to let Evan help get the guts out of the pumpkins but he looked like he wanted to puke when we showed him how to do it. It was funny! We went to a Halloween party last night and Evan ate so much candy! Probably more in one night than in his whole little life combined. He was so wired, he stayed up literally running around until 12:3o. People there were like, is he always like this? We were like, uhhh yeah. He is crazy hyper most of the time. It's like he is on some kind of toddler crack, or I should say speed. Except for last night, it was Tootsie Roll pops, marshmallow ghosts, butterfingers, cupcakes, etc. I won't let him do that too often, that's for sure.

I cut Evan's hair for the first time last weekend. All of his curls are gone now. He looks so cute. We figured after two different people asked if Evan was a girl or boy. We chopped it off the next day! I am posting a couple of different pictures of him so you can see the back/side of his head. The little boy in black beside him is my friend Kim's, cousin's little boy. He was so sweet, they had so much fun playing together. Evan shared one of his slippers with him.

Uncle J, Evan & "Wee-Wee"

We have two dogs, one of them is named Cookie and the other Wheatley. Cookie pretty much steers clear of Evan but Wheatley is just the sweetest around him. She has loved him since he came home from the hospital and is very protective of him. She lets him do anything he wants to her ears, tail, paws, etc. So Evan can say "Wee-Wee" now and he says it all of the time. Any type of animal that we see whether it is a cat, dog, bird, or whatever is "Wee-Wee". It's really cute.

Water Freak

This boy would live in the sink or bathtub if we let him. He screams and cries any time we make him turn the water off finally. It is in sane how much he wants to play in the water.

We love being parents

I just wanted to share my thoughts on being a parent. I think it is the single most important thing in my life. Just thinking about Evan sometimes can bring tears to my eyes. Our little man means so much to me. It is amazing the joy that children (even children that aren't yours) bring to your life. When I am having a bad day, Evan can always make me feel better. Unless, of course, he is whining which I can't stand. :-) HA But really, I can't remember what life was like without him. All of the sleepless nights and other sacrifices that you make for your children seem like no big deal when you look at their sweet little faces. Unless of course they are trying to smack you in the face or pinch you to get your attention like Evan likes to do, just kidding. I waited for what seemed to be such a long time to be a mom and not a day goes by that I am not thankful that I was able to have Evan. Speaking of Evan, he is screaming at my feet so I better go get him ready for bed.

I am finally finished with the world's worst class - Economics. I will be happy if I never in my life see another Economics book. I was even to the point that I wanted bad things to happen to the teacher. I made a horrible grade on my final exam but may end up with a B in the class. Whew, it was hard!!

By the way Chauntel, I am so sorry to hear about your sister Rochelle. Please make sure you keep us updated. Love you guys.

So I know that I am the worst blogger ever. I never post anything and then I'll post like three times in a month then I usually forget until Amy yells at me. I feel like I am so busy all of the time, my head is spinning. Parenting keeps you busy full time in the first time, then add in a full time job and now I have gone back to school, so I am pretty much busy day and night. Not that I am making excuses or anything.

Evan was helping Mommy with the dishes, then he realized he could take that cup and get water out of the water dispenser on the refrigerator door. I don't know what we'll do because we don't have a lock on ours like Grammy and Poppy. Oh well, we'll figure it out. I thought it was cute.

One of the other pictures is from the splash park at the zoo, he had so much fun there. They closed it for the season last time we were there, so we were bummed because Evan had so much fun there. The water scared him when it shot him in the face, but he loved it.

Then the last picture is of Evan in the sink, thanks to Grammy, he will not walk by a sink without trying to pull you over to it and then he wants you to pick him up. If you don't, he lays down on his stomach on the floor and freaks out. It is actually pretty funny. We play in the water when we have time, but he wants to do it 24/7. We were over at someone's house who has a play plastic sink and he was getting upset with me because I wouldn't turn the water on. He kept putting my hand on the plastic knob and fussing at me. It was cute. Anyway, I will try to be better about blogging. But you people need to put some comments on there, like Chauntel said, it is a lot of work to do when you think no one looks at it. Love you guys.
