My Auntie's are AWESOME!!!

Two snow storms within one week…that is unheard of this winter!  And the best part about this one is that it happened on a weekend so Daddy and Evan could play in the snow while Mommy went to a baby shower for baby Murforelli.  How fun! From Collages

For the second time in a week, Evan was very interested in sitting on the potty.  Let’s hope that this interest continues and he is potty trained before he is two!         Hi Mom! Ok, you got your photo...could I have a little privacy please?

I made meatloaf for the first time tonight and I must say, for my first attempt, it turned out pretty good.  Here is what Evan had to say about Daddy’s bites, with an added little bonus for Gramma.

So far this winter, we have had very little snow, especially compared to the record totals of last year.  I am generally not a huge fan of snow but I know a little guy who does like to get out and play in it.  We have tried to take advantage of the mild weather and get outside as much as...

We may just have our own little comedian here in the making.  Evan is always entertaining us, performing and simply being goofy!  We love his wonderful personality and that he always knows just how to make us smile after a long hard day!                                  ...

Evan loves to pretend to use his little potty and to climb up on the big potty too.  I am really hoping this means that potty training will be quick and easy…and soon!  A mom can dream, right?

Today was one of those rare spring-like winter days when you just have to take advantage of the weather and do something fun outside.  Even though these days are coming more frequently this winter, they don’t often happen on a weekend when Daddy is home to have fun too!  We took advantage (as did many other families) and went to...

This really is the Christmas that keep giving and giving but I think we have finally reached the end.  Tonight Evan was able to open his last few gifts that were left in RI while we were out west for the holiday.  Thank you to everyone for everything!  Evan is truly blessed to have each of you in his life!...

Daddy is finally feeling a little bit better.  We are going to a New Year’s Eve party at Uncle Dan and Auntie Karin’s house.  I am going to play with Danny and Sean all night.  And Mommy comes home tonight, too!  Happy New Year, everyone!  I know 2012 will be a great year!
