Last night Evan slept in his “bed” fairly well. He spent the night there, waking up a couple of times (which isn’t altogether unusual for him). Our little cat Ginger curled up with him for a good portion of the night, since we left the door open and the baby gate up. As you can […]

For the past couple of weeks, we’ve had a twin size mattress on the floor of Evan’s room next to his crib. There have been a few nights where he wasn’t sleeping well, so that way one of us could go sleep in his room to keep him company so the other could get some […]

This afternoon was the last performance of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” for the season, so Evan and I hung out backstage while Dusty was getting ready. Evan got to meet most of the cast and run around a bit, but his favorite element was the group of cloggers (ladies ranging from teenagers to […]

Today in a press conference, Greg Page, known to parents and toddlers around the world as the yellow-shirt-wearing Wiggle, announced that he is quitting the group due to a recently diagnosed chronic health problem. Evan is a HUGE fan of the Wiggles. For those of you without Cheerios ground into your carpet, the Wiggles are […]

Thanks to the nice weather, we took Evan out to see the Santa Parade on Friday morning. We got there about an hour early to stake our claim at a nice spot. Evan had a great time. We sat through basically the whole parade, enjoying the marching bands and firetrucks the most. Once he learned […]

I posted a couple of small video clips we took of Evan recently. Two are from the trip to the Children’s Museum and one is from swimming. Take a look on the video page. Sorry if you get a couple of “ActiveX” warnings.

On a happier subject, we took a trip to Indianapolis last weekend. On saturday we took Evan to the zoo, which turned out to not be a very good plan. He mostly just wanted to get down and run around, which he couldn’t do. He started having a good time when we took him to […]

We put up some more photos of Evan this evening. The last update we made was in early March, so months 12 and 13 are new. Man, we need to update more often…
