Evan Update

Thanks to everyone who has emailed or called to check on Evan. He is doing okay, he has had some good days and some bad. From what everyone says it is just a roller coaster ride with the pain. Saturday was by far his worst day. He looked so pale and his little eyes were so tired. He finally crashed at about 6:00 and slept until 8:00 this morning. Today he has been a little better but still a little pale looking. It has been a long week! I hope that this next week he feels better!

Chloe's Closet











Saturday Lillie's friend Chloe had her third birthday. It was so cute, it was a dress up party. Her mommy is the best birthday party planner. They had every costume that you could imagine to dress up in! Lillie didn't want to dress up she was just in the mood to push a baby around in a shopping cart. But boy did the other little girls have fun times!! After playing dress up the kids got to decorate their own magic wand cookie then we had cake and lots of yummy food!! Lillie got some new dress up clothes for her party favor and the most fabulous hat that she has been sporting around!!

Valentine Party




Here are just a few pictures from Evan's preschool party. I really didn't get many pictures but it was a lot of fun. We had ice cream sunday's and lots of other yummy food. I think all the kids were just interested in eating their candy!!
**the monkey boxes are from Oriental Trading. They turned out so cute but just a note to everyone they are a pain to put together!!!!! My friend Lindsey and I decided that paying $7 for the foamie mailboxes would have been worth every penny!!!!

Evan's 4th Birthday











Here are a few pictures from Evan's fourth birthday. We had a dino dig at our house. I think that all the kids had lots of fun. Here is just a brief run down of the party so that when I am 85 and scrap booking it I can remember what all happened!!! When the kids arrived we had buckets and shovels that they got to decorate with dinosaur foamies. When all of the kids arrived we headed out to the garage to dig for fossils and dinosaur eggs. After all the kids found their goodies we came inside to do cake. Evan had volcano cake (which he requested) and we also had cupcakes with dinosaurs on them. After cake and ice cream Evan got to open gifts. (Chaos with all the kids helping!!!) After that we let the kids play in the playroom. For party favors the kids got the buckets they decorated as well as the shovels. The eggs that they found and the fossils. Last I spent three days making paper mache dinosaur eggs for all the kids. They were a big hit for everyone. I basically did paper mache over a balloon, then popped the balloons cut a little slit in the bottom and filled it with candy and other goodies then taped it back up, painted them all white with orange polka dots. They were a lot of work but parents told me that their kids loved digging in to them when they got home!

Prayers Please

Just wanted to let you know that Evan is having his tonsils and adenoids removed in the morning. He is scheduled for 12:30. If you think about it in the morning please say a little prayer for him. I know that this is a very common procedure but it still scares me to death.

We will be home for the next two weeks so hopefully I can get caught up on the blog!! He recently had a big birthday that I need to post about!!!
