New babies!
Proud Mama. When she swims by the light you can actually see that she has two more babies in her belly! Live-bearing fish are so much fun. (Seriously - this is what we do for fun...)

Christmas 2008
Why bubble bath? Because Evan loves three things: bananas, Daddy and BUBBLES. Here he is Christmas morning getting squeaky clean before we headed to Grandma Nelson's.
Here's a great video of Evan asking for more bubbles. I had an Even better one, but Evan stood up in the tub and Blogger doesn't allow nudity on this site. (Seriously though - in the age of creepy Internet predators I thought we better keep it rated G, just in case.)
After a big noontime feast at Grandma Nelson's (which I forgot to bring the camera to...and I forgot the gifts, and we were late...sheesh.) we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Irvin's for Christmas dinner. Evan got some fun toys and this BIG box from Grandma...what could it be???

Our little man is growing up so fast! For nostalgia's sake I was looking through Christmas photos from last year (thanks to the digital age was literally have hundreds of photos from Christmas day alone) and found some cute one's I hadn't noticed before. Can you believe it? He looks so different now! Plus, I had forgotten a lot of little things: like how his left eye teared up all of the time, or that he had just learned to sit up on his own, he tried carrots for the first time Christmas Day, he couldn't crawl, he couldn't talk...its amazing how much they learn in one year!

The Orange Vest is Back...
Daddy reading Evan a book. It was Daddy's turn after Mommy read it four times in a row. Its a cute book, but honestly, how many times can you read a poem about hippos and their bellybuttons without losing your mind?
You can really see Evan's new molar well in this photo. He has thirteen teeth now (from what I can see) and likes to use them on ME. When, oh when, will he stop biting!?
Playing in the snow this morning.

Evan finds the presents under the tree...

Emma is just beginning to enjoy "dress up" and decided to change her outfit for us all. What a pretty little princess!
Playing together (and showing off Evan's Dora the Explorer tattoo.)
All the kids on the couch. This was the best photo I took of all 6 of them. Getting them all to sit in one spot was no easy task! (Mason, Evan, Emma, Madison, Natalie and baby Johnathan.)

Thanksgiving Day Photos
Evan's Great-Grandma has a mirror hanging behind her couch. It only took Evan a few second to "find" the other boy in the mirror and begin taunting him...
Evan and his Great-Grandma Eileen.
Evan loves to wear his Grandpa's hat.
Here's a video of Evan in the chair - for those of you that don't know him it may not seem like much, but for those of you that DO know Evan, know that he is a very active child, and he almost NEVER sits still...especially for more than 5 seconds at a time!
Grandpa showed Evan how to ring a bell that his Great-Grandma got from Germany.
