I've been lax about posting lately. Lots of things going on. I just had my gall bladder removed two days ago and I'm starting to feel like myself again. Thank goodness for medical advances! A few days and I'll be completely back to my old self.
Steven is such a doll. So smiley! He's almost crawling! He can get on his hands and knees and push himself forwards and then his legs straighten out underneath him. He does move around that way though it's slow going. Ken had him overnight by himself for the first time since he came home from the hospital while I was in the hospital preparing for surgery. He seems to be cutting a third tooth. He keeps me amazed on a daily basis. He's eating baby foods now and likes sweet potatoes, bananas, pears, and carrots. Applesauce seems to upset his stomach so we've steared away from that. He laughs a lot, all by himself in the car or in the crib I hear gim giggling away.
I'm posting pics of Evie's birthday. The cake kind of "melted" as I didn't use very stiff frosting for the animal faces. The directions said to use regular canned frosting but I think decorators frosting would have worked much better. At least Evie seemed to like it and recognized who everyone was supposed to be. Evie joined the church childrens choir called the Cherubs. She will be singing for the first time on Sunday. I can't wait to see her. They have only had one rehearsal so I don't know how much she will actually remember and sing but it should still be fun and adorable. Of course she is always adorable!
Hope you enjoy the pictures and I will try to be better about updating my blog more.
