Talking

Eva is now saying "Baby", "Mimi" and "Daddy" perfectly clear!  She is also climbing up the stairs easily.

Four New Posts

We owed you all some new posts and pictures.  I decided to give Aimee a much-needed break, so scroll down and enjoy the four new posts below!

Eva Just Being Cute (Again)

As always, enjoy!

Ballerina practice?

Daddy, your feet stink!

...and you're scurfy!  Shave already!

Finally!  An Eva-sized coffee cup!

30 Degrees in Minnesota

This week I had to go to Minnesota for work for a department summit.  Thankfully the trip went smoothly overall, but it was a long week between the travel and extra hours making up work.  One plus is that I got to go to the Mall of America a few times since it was only 5 miles from my hotel - the place is huge, you need several trips just to see it all!  It's basically a four-story mall with a mini-amusement park in the middle.  

It was cold there, but thankfully I was inside most of the time.  I didn't get to see any snow, but I don't like the idea of planes landing when it is snowing, so I guess that was good.  It was great to be back home though - I missed Aimee and Eva a lot. Here are some pictures:

This is one of the hallways - huge!

Getting ready to sleep in an empty bed :(  I wanna be back home!

Visit From Uncle David

Aimee's Uncle David came down from Jacksonville for a brief visit so he got to see how big Eva is getting!  He tried to feed her to the lobsters at Red Lobster where they had lunch.  Eva likes crab! Who knew?  She also got to drive his truck, but she couldn't reach the pedals yet :)

Out For a Stroll

Florida can have some beautiful weather around October and November (my favorite time of the year.)  We decided to go for a walk around the lake at "Downtown at the Gardens" town center and it made for some good photo ops.  Enjoy!  

Long Overdue for an Update!

Sorry, we've been slacking.  But don't worry - we're still taking pictures, they just aren't making it to the blog in a timely manner.  So without further adieu...

Picture update

Eva taking a picture of herself with my phone ;)

One thumb in the mouth and the other playing with her hair.

huh?

All dressed up

A fun day at the park!  Swinging and playing basketball!

I put this blanket over her head because it was cold and she left it on the entire walk.

I sang karaoke with mommy!

Can't take this hat off!  It ties on!

Eva loves to reach out her hand on walks to reach for the leaves.

Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Eva's Great Grandpa turned 70 this week!  We love you - enjoy the pics of my wonderful grandparents.

Don't make me turn this light saber on!

New Word!

We were feeding the ducks tonight after dinner and Eva said, "duck".  More than once!  

Also she has decided that she no longer wants any baby food.  She will only eat adult food.  

This morning for breakfast I gave her a chunk of apple to munch on and she smelled it and then licked it 3 times before taking a bite!  Food critic?
