Andy is now sitting up from a prone position. He still refuses to crawl but when he’s lying down, he’ll sit up and go back down to prone on his own.
Volcanos
Evie – “When Auntie visits me, I want to ask her when the volcano in Washington is going to erupt. It’s kinda cool cuz it’s the first volcano I know that is snowing.”
Mama And Dada Sittin’ In A Tree
Last night, Evie asked Mama about a poem that she wrote for Dada a long time ago. Mama read it and when she was done, Evie moved over to Dada, poked him with her elbow, wriggled her eyebrows and said
“She looovvvesss you!”
Joke Of The Day
Evie – “What do you call a bear with no ears?”
Nana – “I don’t know. What do you call a bear with no ears?”
Evie – “B!”
First Word
As I said, Andy has been making all the usual baby noises. The ‘rents have been insisting he’s been calling for me. I say he’s just making his noises (and they’re just trying to get me to take him, lol). But I swear, last night he looked right at me and said “Nana”.
How Do You Do That?
Evie – “Well, I think I think it in my head and then it comes out of my mouth.”
Cough, Cough
You know how babies mimic back what you say when they are learning to talk? Well, the whole house has been sick for the last couple months. So along with all the DaDas, NaNas and BaBas that Andy is spouting he has started fake coughing!!! So funny.
Punxsutawney Evie
I was getting ready to take my shower and looking in my drawer for what to wear. I asked Evie if it was supposed to get hot later and she said:
“No, 6 more weeks of winter!”
Love
Evie has many boy friends at school but one in particular is current. She told me:
“I’m in love with Grayson. Grayson is happy about that. I am, too, cuz I’ve been waiting a long time for someone to be happy with my love.”
Confusion
Evie and I were talking about when Mom and Dad get married. She was thinking that Mom would then have 4 names. I told her that she didn’t have to take Dad’s name if she didn’t want to but that she probably would because then we’d all have the same name and there wouldn’t be any confusion. Her response was:
“Yeah, that’s probably good but I’ve known Mama a long time so I’m not confused!”
