Took a break for the weekend...

Here are some pics from our weekend with Mark and Choo choo (aka Rachel) our neighbors at Norfork Lake in AR. We had a blast just hanging out and doing nothing!

Ev (starting to go down the slide) Choo choo and mom when we first arrived.

Ev and Dad lounging in the lake. What a cheese face! :)

Ev on the dock getting ready to swim.

This was our view from our cabin! So beautiful!

Ev went down the big slide with Dad and even went under water...she didn't want to do it again :)

Oops!

I posted pictures of Babu's House and forgot a picture of Babu with Ev...silly mommy as Ev would say.

Babu Pictures

As promised some pics from the visit to Babu's House last month. Babu had a 60th wedding anniversary party for PraBabu and PraDziadziu and we also had a picnic at the beach with the Woodside fam. This time Evelyn liked the sand!

New sitters!!!

Evelyn LOVED her new sitters yesterday. They were very sweet and seemed to really love Ev too. So, they are coming back today so mom can go swim laps. Whoo hooo mom is excited...

July 2009

Since I'm a little behind I thought I would share some things we did in July with everyone...

We went to the zoo over 4th of July weekend. Evelyn loved the Elephants, she even got to see one give itself a bath! We love the zoo here because its free and you can bring in food so we had a picnic before we left.

We painted the garage!

Ev helped a lot! Turns out she is a pretty good painter! What child labor laws :)

We went to visit Babu in Syracuse. I will have to upload some pics of our trip later. We got to see everyone and Ev got to play with her cousins Jacquline, Cooper and Nathan. Also, Moops (Meredith) taught Ev some songs that she will not stop singing...Bringing home a bumblebee and The Turtle in the bathtub song...if you don't know those songs just call up Ev and she will be happy to sing them for you! Look for pics soon!

We went to the Butterfly House. Ev thought it was neat but didn't like that the butterfly's fly at your head...mom thought it was cool though.

Her favorite butterflies were the blue morpho (like Diego) and one that looked like an owl's eye...we almost stepped on one.

I am about to leave work today to go meet our new sitters. Evelyn is going to try out two sisters of our neighbors. Hopefully, everyone like each other and it works out. Then maybe Chris and I can have a date night sometime! :) Wish us luck!

Here we go again!

Ok so I'm going to try this again. I have no idea what my other blog was even called so it is lost out there in never-never-land. This is my second attempt at keeping everyone updated with the goings on in our crazy busy lives. Please bare with me while I get things set up.
