Our Visit to a Rose Garden
Evan loves flowers! Recently, we visited a rose garden at a local church.
Oh Boy.....Presents!
Evan couldn't wait to tear into his birthday presents! Especially since they were wrapped in Tonka paper!
Happy Spring!
Hi Everyone --
Happy Spring! Once again, I have waited entirely too long to update Evan's blog. He is doing really good these days. We have had a busy few months. Gary went to Asia and back again at the end of March and first of April. We celebrated Evan's 2nd birthday on April 14th. We had a small party for him here at the house. He had a good time visiting with everyone. I can hardly believe he is two already. He can communicate with us very good for a two year old. We can carry on short conversations with him and he is easy to understand. He also lets us know that he understands us by saying "Ok, Mommy", or "Ok, Daddy". We have noticed that if we tell him something and he doesn't respond with Ok that means he didn't understand. We are certainly proud of him and all of his 2 year old accomplishments. Of course, we are convinced that he is genius! :-)
Gary is plugging along at the same company and still traveling to places I'll never visit. I am still loving my job as Evan and Gary's caretaker! It's hard work, but I wouldn't trade this time for anything.
I hope everyone reading this is doing good as well. Please leave us some comments!
Enjoy the photos of his party and our other daily activities.

Evan and the Big Trucks!
One of my dear friends took us to the garage where they work on the BIG city trucks. Evan got to see several garbage trucks, dump trucks, and other big trucks. He was very impressed. He was climbing on the trucks and kept saying, "Wow, neat!"
Sweet Smokie
Evan and Smokie are such good friends. Smokie tolerates a lot from Evan. Evan sits by Smokie on Smokie's pillow every morning and watches Calliou and Sesame Street.
Evan and Mommy painting a Valentine for Daddy
Daddy was out of town on Valentine's Day so Evan and Mommy made a Valentine for him. Evan enjoyed the painting. His favorite colors are blue and pink!!
Evan's New Tonka Truck
We enjoyed an after Christmas celebration with Nana, PaPaw ,and Grandmother. Evan was excited about his new Tonka trucks!
Long time, no blog........
Wow, is it really March already! It seems like it hasn't been that long since I have updated this crazy thing. February was a busy month for us. Gary's travels and Evan's antics make every month go by fast it seems!
Evan is growing so fast and learning so much these days. He is still talking about trucks, especially garbage trucks and dump trucks. He is also quite fond of bulldozers. We are trying to teach Evan some manners these days. He does say "please" and "thank you". He occassionally says "excuse me". He really likes to remind Daddy to say "excuse me" too. I'm sure there are a lot of other things that I am forgetting. He learns so many new words and things each day. It's hard for me to keep up!
Smokie is doing good too. He and Evan are becoming very good friends. They were riding in Evan's wagon together just the other night. They were both as content as they could be.
Hope everyone is doing well and enjoy the February photos.
