What blog would be complete without a picture of your child sleeping? I just looked in her room to see if Evelyn was still sleeping because I had heard her make some noise a few minutes earlier. This is what I saw:
I guess if she's going to insist on sleeping the width of the crib then some compromises must be made. 
What happens when your child's face collides with the wall? A fat lip, that's what.
Evelyn is learing to walk and doing very well at it. She can take about 8 steps at best. I loved this picture because it is evidence of all of her falls. If you look closely or blow this picture up you can see about three colision sites and they all happened to be on the left side. 
The events happened in this order:
Derek scooping up my fish while Caleb carefully observes the process.
Derek struggling to bring it into the boat (I'm sure it's due the immense size and weight).
Derek is saying something like, "Holy moly! We've got to get a picture of you with this fish!" You can tell by my hand how anxious I was to hold it.
Here Derek is grabbing it with his finger to hand it to me. I was horrified because it's gills were HUGE! Then I realized I was wearing a glove on my right hand and was therefore completely capable of holding it.
Ta-da! A full six pounds of fish right out of Henrys Lake.
We just had such a fun weekend in Island Park. We were there with Kurtis and Jolenes family. We had so much fun. Evelyn loves her cousins. They are so good to her, and that makes mommy happy.
Here is a family pic of us before our 4wheeling/motorbike ride that we took to go look through a cabin under construction. We were all frozen when we came home. I love this picture because I thought that Evelyn looked so cute all bundled up. I'm used to seeing her in shorts and a t-shirt. Also, if you'll notice the gloves that are actually socks? I love it. Evelyn loves 4wheeling. Every time we've gone this summer she hasn't even made a peep.
Evelyn loved to sit in this desk. Whenever she was missing we could find her here.
The title for this post is for my father-in-law and anyone else who was around when he said it.
Evelyn really likes to play in the bath. She has recently found joy in eating bubbles. She doesn't eat them out of her hand or anything simple like that, she eats them from off the top of the water. Half the time she comes up coughing. This is a picture of her bubble goatee after sucessfully eating some bubbles.
No, this is not a toupee. Notice the farmer tan? She is so much like her dad.
Shanna picked Evelyn up to watch her while we went to the football game. I thought it was so cute to see all these three kids crammed in the back of her car. They were all happy... even though it doesn't look like it. 
Madeline is a happy baby. She was smiling at her dad who was taking this picture.
Evelyn and Hannah took a bath together on Saturday night. Jolene and I had just taken their hair out and I thought it was so funny to see them together with their wild hair.
Where are Calebs legs?
