5 Months Old

Evan loves his new blanket from Great Aunt Kay!

The family...

Evan turned 5 months old yesterday...where does the time go?! I know that I have said this before, but he really does get more fun everyday! He is very animated and has discovered that if he open his mouth wide, loud noises come out. He is quite the funny little guy!

We have been busy! Last weekend I had to work on Saturday morning, so my parents came up to babysit. Evan had a great time hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa during the day, then we all went for dinner on Saturday night. Evan is so good when we go out and loves to watch the things going on around him. I had to work Tuesday night too, so my mom and cousins came to stay the night. Evan spent the day with Grandma, Laura, and Kirsten on Wednesday. They went for a walk and played lots. They must have worn him out because he was exhausted when I got home!

This weekend Grandma and Grandpa Pasche and Great Grandma Signora came to visit. We went for a walk, sat out on the deck, and played while Aaron was at work. We went to visit him at his office and then had dinner. Today Evan, Jane, Cole, and I drove to Clear Lake for Isaac and Lily's birthday party. They turn 2 on Tuesday and are SO darn cute! They had Elmo cupcakes, lots of presents, and even sang songs for us! It was Evan's first party and he had fun hanging out with his buddies Isaac, Lily, Cole, Ethan, and Macie.

There are 3 weeks left of tax season and we are counting down! We are looking forward to having Aaron home at night and doing some fun family things on the weekends!

Big Boy

Such a happy little guy!

What we wake up to every morning! (It doesn't get any better than that!)

Enjoying a nice walk around the neighborhood

We had Evan's 4 month appointment on the 27th and he is a big guy! He weighs 18 lbs. 13.5 oz and is 26 3/4 inches! He is in the 97% percentile for weight and 95% for height. Wowsers!

I had spring break last week, so Evan and I went to Eau Claire to stay with my parents for a few days. Evan had fun hanging out with grandma and grandpa, but I was miserable with the flu!

We got out for a walk on Friday since the weather was so nice. Evan was very mellow and fell asleep halfway through. I posted a picture of him bundled up in his cute little fleece jacket! On Saturday we went to IKEA with my brother. Evan loves to watch people and seemed to be very entertained! Evan is very vocal ("goo, goo"), full of smiles, and is putting everything in his mouth. He watches what is going on around him, rolls over (when he feels like it), and loves to be talked to. We are having so much fun with him and are loving every minute!
