Evie 15 Month

Evie had her 15th month appt this past Tuesday.  She survived her 4 shots and is growing well!  The nurse marked her as 31" (highly doubt it!) and 21# 9 oz.  She ranks 50th percentile and is just getting into her 18 month clothes.

Here we are acting goofy, both Nat and Evie were taking turns wearing the hat and climbing on the ottoman.

It's impossible to get a picture where she is looking at you and not blurry!

Sister love...

She likes to pretend to sleep on the ottoman, cracks me up!

Lazy Sunday...

Everyone gets into the art action....and for the most part Evie doesn't eat the crayons!

Tents are always a favorite.  We had lots of shrieking with this one.

She climbs on EVERYTHING!

Digging into the old Halloween costume box today.

Does this make me look boney??

Anything with a cape is fun!

Dinosaur, she liked to swing her tail...

That is one wild wig!  Still no decision on costume 2013!!

Fulton County Fair Pics

It seems like ages ago, but the fair was really just a week ago!!  We've been busy.  Was looking through my Pittsburgh trip pics and I have so many that might have to wait and be a photo book :)  Plus, the adventures from last week in Seattle (with Evie) and around town (with Nat).  Too many pictures to count!!!

 Evie has taken to climbing.  She can climb up and over her highchair tray if left on the back.  So we have confiscated that from her!

 The best part of the fair is the food!!  Here we are enjoying cheese curds and the girls had gator on a stick with Dad.  Crazy kids!

 This was the first year that Nat wanted to do the rides.  She did really well and went on all of them by herself.

 This made me nervous, she ended up on there with two older boys who spun that thing like crazy.  She just held on and laughed it up.

 This was her favorite ride of the day.  It popped a wheelie when it was going around!

We made it through lots of animal barns too.  Got to see horses, goats, sheep, chickens, bunnies, and some other baby animals.  It was a great day!

Happy breakfast!

Random post..........

I wish there was more time to get everything done in the day..........have a ton of pictures from the summer and our trip to Pittsburgh that I would love to share.  But hey, it's almost 11PM and 5:30 rolls around quickly!!  So here are a few random pics..........

 Evie loves to be outside and is always on the move.  She can walk the whole cul de sac now!!

 Love going to the Toledo Zoo and sharing it with our friends!  Here we met up with Melissa and Sasha for the day.

 Took a day trip to Fort Wayne's Children zoo........very cool.

 There were lots of great displays to interact with.

 Evie enjoyed the scenery.

 This is quite the crazy picture.  Apparently we were showing off our crowns that we made!

 Had a great night at the circus with friends.  Here Natalie and Lindsey got to ride an elephant!!

 Natalie was introduced to the world of cotton candy, and may never be the same :)

Yeah, she can have wild hair these days......Nat loves to give her a good Mohawk in the tub!!!

Good night!!!

 

Playing with Grandma

It's been a busy day....and Nat is due to a birthday party in 30 minutes. She swears she is not too tired....she is just pretending to sleep in the baby shack :)

Post-Dinner Puzzle!

Pittsburgh streets are crazy....it must rival Portland for number of bridges. Drove around university of pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon, and a great park with a conservatory that we want to return to... Quick grocery run and picked up pizza (the bridge was GONE) and had food at home base. Now the girls are winding down although Evie is trying to check the apartment for baby proofing. Should be fun day tomorrow!

Hello Pittsburgh!

Taking a break with these monkeys after our drive to pittsburgh!! Then out to explore :)

Princess crowns

These were made with love! They are on Nat's nightstand so when she wakes up she can be a princess :)

Saturday Happenings...

Natalie had a birthday party this afternoon, fairy themed! She even got to take home a jar of fairy dust. In the morning we stopped by Wildwood where there was a music party, complete with clowns. Evie didn't like the clown but she liked the balloon well enough!

Clean Plate Award

Evie loves to chow down with the rest of the family...tonight was hamburgers, avocado, fruit, and corn. It was a winner!

Winter in July!

Yeah, we had to hoody up to go out and play today!! Moms arms weren't long enough to get a good picture :)

Dessert

Can't have ice cream all the time.....sometimes chocolate chip cookies are good too! Evie kept looking for more :)
