Outside on the first warm beautiful spring day. As you can see we were all getting a lot of sun. Evan rides his classic Schwinn bike Justin and I bought for him 5 years pre-conception.

Evan running in the backyard after a good meal. Future rock climber.

These are some pictures from the hike we took last weekend when the weather was superb!

Playtime

Since the weather has been warming up a bit, Evan and I have been exploring the backyard. He loves going down the slide, but it takes him a while to get up the nerve. Inching closer...

Yay! Fun.

Walking in barkdust is not that easy.

Look ma! A piece of wood.

Climbing back up the slide.

Evan stole the phone from me while I was talking with his Grandma Gena. I let him do a lap down the hall and back. So far, he is not the greatest conversationalist i.e. you can't hardly get him to say anything he just wants to hold it to his ear.

Evan is getting into the swing of spring.....helping us with our spring cleaning! Before he sweeps he likes to pull all the dirt out of the flower pots.

"Rocket Man"

MOMS club fund raiser at Barnes and Noble. Evan is doing some sideshow antics. This is where Evan got his rocket tattoo which by the way is one of his new favorite words 'dadoo'.

Yay! I love opening the garbage can and pulling out its contents.

"Evan, no babies in the garbage can!" "Who me?" If there was a third photo, it would have been Evan eating a piece of bread that I threw away.

Stages of Walking.

We just recently took a drive up to Lewiston, Idaho to visit Evan's Great Grandmother Crouch. Here we have stopped just outside Riggins at the Little Salmon River.

Evan meets the Easter bunny, he likes the egg but wants the big scary thing to go away.

Rex hides out on our hike at Mann Lake.

Rex gives Evan a balloon...Evan likes balloons!!

Evan is letting us know that he wants to get down from his Uncle's shoulders!

Bunny Ears.

This is Evan with one of his favorite objects...a bird house on a stick.

Here we are at Mom Club play group. We met at Artic Circle a couple of weeks in a row. Evan loves climbing around on the equipment and playing with the other kids.

Yes, he has been prematurely introduced to fast food and guess what...he likes french fries imagine that!

Playing.

Bloggers! My sincerest apologies for not keeping up my part of the bargain. I have been so busy over the last month that I have hardly taken a picture. Here are a couple that my mom took while she watched Evan and a few from a hike we took at Niagra Springs a few weekends ago.

Evan turns One

The balloon says it all!! Evan loves the mylar balloons he sees floating in the grocery store so we decided to surprise him with one on his Birthday.

Unfortunately, Evan woke up with a fever and didn't feel very good, but the balloons made him smile! He was also very happy his grandparents made it over for a birthday visit!Milo liked his balloon too. Yummy!Evan playing with some of his gifts.
