Garrett the Graduate!

The semester is finally over!! Garrett is now an Associate! He decided not to walk at graduation but I wanted to make a big deal about it so I threw him a little party.. and by little I mean it was just him, Evan, and I there.. but it was fun. He ended up getting a 3.8 GPA this semester! Awesome right?! I am so proud of him. It was a very crazy semester and it involved a lot of Mountain Dew drinking, but he got through it. Yup.. he's pretty awesome!

Best Friends

My best friend growing up just recently moved in, a couple houses down from us. It has been so much fun having her so close. When we were kids we always talked about living by each other and raising our kids together and now it is actually happening! ..even though it will only be for a short time. She has a son, Kade, that is three months older than Evan. He's such a cutie. They don't really play with each other yet but it's still fun to see them together:)

Kade pushing Evan over lol. Poor E is just trying to look cute for the camera.

6 Months!

Evan went to his six month check up last week! I felt like such a bad mom because the doctor said he had two ear infections, one in each ear, and I had no idea. I felt terrible, but other than that everything was great. Here is what's new with him:

*he weighs 17.4 lbs which surprisingly only put him in the 50% percentile

*he's 26.3 inches long

*his head is 17.6 inches around (79%)

*the doctor is a little worried about his flat head but he has until he's 3 before they will give him a helmet (which is his dad's biggest fear)

*he can sit up by himself

*he has already learned how to fake laugh.. don't ask where he learned it

*he hates pears and green beans

*he loves drinking water

*he is a really good sleeper (I hope I didn't just jinx it)

*no teeth yet

*he is very ticklish everywhere but especially under his armpits and his thighs

*he loves playing in his Jumperoo

*he loves it when I sing The Itsy Bitsy Spider song to him

*he has gone swimming a couple times but doesn't know exactly how he feels about it yet

*he still spits up a little but it has gotten a lot better since I have started giving him probiotics

*and he is completely adorable

The Shoes...

After Evan was born, Garrett's Grandma Faylor's sister sent him a present, which was very sweet of her considering that I have never even met her. But anyways.. in the box were the cutest shoes and the cutest suit for Evan to wear to church (pictures of the suit to come). They are so cute that I didn't want Evan to even wear them but in the card she said that he is supposed to, so I put them on him the other day... have I mentioned that they are super cute? Well.. here are some pictures.

He looks so handsome in the little suit too but I forgot to take pictures of him. I will next time though.
