Almost 6 months!

We got Evan's 6 month photos done last weekend - a little early, but it was the only weekend that worked. Hdre is a link to those photos.
Evan is rolling and rolling and rolling all over the place. He also can pull himself to something he REALLY wants on the floor. Lou and Fiona better watch out!
I forgot last time to share Evan and Grandma Kate's adventures in Chicago over Labor Day. Amy, Nick, Aunt Lindsay, Future-Uncle Ben, Great Uncles Bill and Mike went to Notre Dame for the home opener. Evan and Grandma walked all over Lincoln Park and Wrigleyville. I guess he even met some friends at the park, but Evan has learned Russian yet so there was a language barrier. He'll learn in due time.
Lindsay and Ben's engagement party. Varcoe girls -Caitlin, Erin, Lindsay and me.

Evan has been sick with tummy bug and it hasn't let up at daycare either. Something new posted each week about illnesses. Fun winter ahead I am afraid! Here is Evan with Grandma Lois after throwing up. Breaks my heart...


Fun and busy fall ahead of us!

Love,

Amy, Nick and Evan

Carrots, Rice and Packers - oh my!

Evan has been a busy little boy. He started carrots for the first time and once again loved them!

Also Evan continues to love his rice. Bottles are for babies and Evan thinks he is a big boy with all the food coming his way. He likes to do things by himself like put his pacifier in his own mouth, hold the spoon with rice and carrots on it and put himself to sleep. He hasn't quite mastered any of them so it takes awhile for him to accept help:)

The Packers had a big win over the Bears, but as you can see from this picture he was a little nervous at kick off.

Evan plays very hard and sleeps hard (at night) too. Naps at school are only if there is nothing else he is going miss out on. Zonked on his play mat - staying up late with Dad while Mom was gone.

He also had the flu last week. It is getting around at daycare and spreading quickly. I think we are in for a winter of lots of illnesses. Time for a flu shot for the whole family when Evan is 6 months!

And here is his 5 month Elephante picture. He is so happy to be 5 months!


He gets his 6 month pictures on Saturday - love the fall!

Love,

Amy, Nick and Evan
