No Pictures of Evelyn?!? What Gives?

Hi everyone,

I know that it's a shock to the system to come to this blog and see a post without a picture of Evelyn in it, but we thought we'd give you the night off. I just wanted to make a quick post and invite you to pop on over and take a look at my personal blog, http://www.yourfellowcitizen.com.

I started writing this blog after learning that both major party candidates in this election faced questions about being eligible to hold the office of President. I thought that was odd, since the qualifications are clearly laid out in the Constitution. Upon looking more closely, though, I was surprised to find that there is no easily identifiable process that governs the certification of our Presidential candidates. The blog is about my "quest" to find out how this process works. For those with too much time, or an interest in how our democracy works, it might be worth a look...

Thanks!

Justin

More pictures for your daily Evelyn fix...

...at the grocery store

...playing Mozart.

...wearing Mommy's makeup. :)

Halloweenies!

Fairy Princess Evie and Adorable Froggie (Nathan) meet at the Ward Trunk-or-Treat, but she declines to kiss the frog on camera--stagefright? I'm sure there will be kissing in the months to come... (wink! wink!)

Here's Evie enjoying her spoils... Justin bought the costume. Good taste, eh?

We both love our little pixie!

A Girl of Many Faces

All these silly faces, one very funny little girl...

Pottie Time

Evelyn has shown increased interest in using the bathroom. So we bought a little pottie at a thrift store, and since then she has used it for everything except going pottie:

...as a stepping stool,
...a vanity seat,

...show and tell,

...more show and tell,

...and a suitcase (inside are toys).

Maybe someday she'll get the idea! :)

Bad hair day...

Evelyn did her own hair, and then had the most priceless face ever...

Return of the Cousins... :)

Evie's cousins, Keaton and Porter, came to play again. They are moving so we won't see them again anytime soon! They were so cute on the swings, I thought I'd post it! They both wanted to hold their "Ebbie."

Mommy and Evie play in the leaves

We were feeling sick a couple of weeks ago, but we had to go outside and see our maple tree and play in the leaves.

This tree was dubbed "Blaze" by the former owners of our home. It's the pride of the neighborhood!
