The moment we have all been waiting for. . . . Evan's first wobbly steps!

I just like this picture

Here's Evan playing at a friend's house. He decided to take the car into the pool. He is a pretty fearless guy.

Evan's Birthday!!!!

Here we are heading to the pool. I pulled Evan and Trevor behind me on my bike- not an easy task! The two little guys had a lot of fun, mostly on the splash pad.
As you can see Evan was very excited to have cake. He was already reaching for it when we were just blowing out the sombrero candle.
He pretty much could not have been happier. I gave him a pretty large piece in hopes that he would just make a huge mess. He managed to make a pretty good mess, but also got a surprising amount eaten as well.

We had so much fun celebrating his first birthday with our Houston family.

YUM!

So Evan really loves lemons I guess. We went to out to dinner kind of late the other night so it was a little difficult to keep Evan guy happy, but he just reached for the lemon. He was actually biting into it. Gross! It was pretty funny. The past couple of days he has been looking so big to me and saying some words. It's really crazy/fun. He really is just so much fun and brings added happiness to our home for sure.

Weed Eater

Wow- Evan was such a good helper yesterday. NOT! He sure was crackin me up though. It was like he couldn't get to the dirt fast enough. He loved it! When I would attempt to get a stick or rock out of his mouth he would just laugh and laugh. He made my chore of weeding a lot more fun. He is one silly little boy.

Man, it's hot.

It is starting to get really hot here. You know- the kind of hot where you immediately start to sweat upon stepping out the door. FUN! We are so glad that we have the neighborhood pool so that we can cool off a little. Evan loves it so we have lot of fun! Check out that cute little body (Evan's not Aaron's)!

Finally. . . . . waterskiing!

We finally got to go waterskiing. It is one of Aaron's VERY favorite things to do and we had never gone together. Aaron's dental assistant is a serious skiier and she took us along after work on Thursday to some private lake in College Station. I had never waterskiied before and we all just had the best time. Evan even enjoyed being out on the boat in his sweet life jacket. He had a little nap while riding around on the boat. It was so fun to see Aaron doing something he loves so much. He had a huge smile the whole time he was on the water. I wasn't going to try skiing because everyone there was SO good, but then I thought that I should not pass up the opportunity for such fun. I went and I loved it. I even stayed up for quite a while. . . .I promise. We are so glad that we were able to go and really had tons of fun!
