Just a reminder for me since I tend to forget so easily





"Eeeveee," (as her brother lovingly calls her) is already three and a half months. Where does the time go?! We are enjoying this precious little girl so much. She has such a wonderful temperament. Eva is very consolable the few times she gets upset. Her big brother absolutely LOVES his sister and tells her so often as he smothers her with kisses and hugs. We sing "You are my sunshine," everyday to her and she lights up upon hearing it. Once again, the Bumbo chair is getting some good use as we like to keep her with us while cooking/baking and eating. She's also began grabbing at her toys and pulling them to her mouth. Don't put her on her belly for very long or she will show a little attitude. Eva loves laughing, talking, cooing, and making gurgling noises. She also loves bath time, the swing, bouncy chair, and her pacifier. And I can't forget to say that you LOVE TV, shame on you. :) Her sleep pattern has been a dream for me as she typically takes three or more naps throughout the day and sleeps from 8:30 pm - 5 or 6 am. (WAYYYY better than her brother used to sleep when he was her age.) No teeth yet, thank goodness! We love you Evangeline Mae. Our prayer is that you continue to grow into a healthy, happy, godly woman.

As a side note: The major hair loss has begun, ugh! (Mine that is)

What a cutie! Love the headband. I think Nolan and her would get along just fine, he seems to be about the same temperment. Only my boys have slept through the night! It is sooo nice though, isn't it? Nolan goes down around 9:30pm and sleeps till 7-8a usually. I put him in the bumbo a few times but have to watch him right there as he still can't support his head totally. And he does not like 'tummy time' either. Maybe it's because they share the same birthday?!

Does Eva have brown eyes??? Look similar to Edward's baby pics??

I was hoping for them, I love brown eyes! We have a blued eyed and reddish haired little guy.

Sounds like they would be GREAT friends. We have a little blue eyed, auburn hair baby too. Totally different from her brown eyed, dark hair brother. It's neat to see how the Lord creates each of us so differently. After having one, we kinda thought the rest of our kids would look the same, not so. :)
Thank goodness for a baby who sleeps.

She is so adorable, Kari! Seriously, that flower is the cutest!

She is so sweet! You guys have the cutest kids. :) Ava doesn't like tummy time either! She tries and tries to roll over when she's on her tummy, but never uses her hands...it's funny. :) I love the headband...wow...Eva is so big and so beautiful. We moms are so blessed!

She is super cute! I think I'll need a hat like that for my little girl. Where did you get it?
