Hair Cut

After much deliberation between Jasen and I, we finally took the plunge and took little E to Cool Cuts 4 Kids for that first haircut, or should we say trim. After the long wait on a Saturday afternoon, Evan sat in the red race car chair, wore his smock proudly, and stared off into the distance. About 5 or so minutes later all of his baby curls were put into a Ziploc for safekeeping.
It was a great first haircut, Evan did an awesome job, and took a nice long nap when we got home! Here are a few snapshots of the special event.

Halloween.

Evan went as Mickey Mouse this year. I made most of it myself and we thought it came out pretty well. We took him up to the school for the festival, since he wasn't going to be awake for actual trick or treating. He got to walk around and see lots of other kids and got candy, we ate hot dogs and had sodas, and Evan got to try out cotton candy. He wasn't sure how to eat it or hold it, but after a couple tries, he seemed to sort of like it. We only had 3 knocks on our door for trick or treating, so that meant lots of candy left over for us. Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!

Pumpkin Carving

Last night Jasen carved the pumpkin and Evan and I cleaned it out. I got all the seeds out and Evan put all the seeds back, he likes things clean. I don't think Evan cared to much for it, but he did like carrying around the top of the pumpkin. Check back later for some pictures of Evan in his costume. Happy Halloween!!!!

Fun with a Tent

My brother gave Evan this tent for x-mas and we set it up for him in the house. After about 10 minutes of Evan going back and forth, I thought I would video it on my phone. He still spends a few minutes everyday going back and forth.

Happy Birthday!

We had a great birthday weekend with Jasen turning 29 and Evan turning 1!! Jasen went for a massage and came back sore, while Evan had a Mickey Mouse party. All the family members came over to celebrate with hot dogs, cake and presents. We all had a great time and here are a few pictures of the birthday boys! Next up for the Southwards....the State Fair!!

First Shoes

We took a family trip to Southlake and visited the Stride Rite store and got Evan fitted for his first pair of shoes. He had a ton of fun at the shoe store, playing with the toys and other little kids getting shoes.

11 Months

Time for another monthly update in Evan's world. He is 11 months today!! He is starting to take more steps now and getting into all the kitchen drawers. He loved to pull out the trash bags and wave them in the air. He is also starting to eat more regular food and wanting to feed himself all the time. Always finding ways to make everyone smile....until next time enjoy some new Evan photos.
