Evan 1 Month Stats...

Hello All! Man I am so disappointed in my lack of blogging lately, not only because of not sharing with all of you, but also because I use this as my brain. Anyhow, Evan had his belated one month appointment this past week. It was delayed a few weeks until David's new insurance kicked in. Anyhow.. here goes:


Weight: 10lbs 13oz (50%)
Height: 24" (95%)
It was funny because the doctor told me to pay no attention to the over all percentage because Evan is REALLY long... I peaked anyhow, the over all using all the numbers is .09%. His height threw everything off. As I told the doctor Evan comes from tall stock.

Smiling Boy: We saw hints of his first smile around 3 weeks, but we are now seeing it more often. This first picture was my first attempt at capturing his smile


Attempt #2

Drew being "Helpful"

Evan is a sweet and snuggly boy. He is verbalizing more and more with each passing day and is a very alert baby. When he is awake he stays that way for awhile. He is still very gassy and we are just trying to pray through it. I am praising God because so far I have not needed to supplement with formula. I prayed for during my whole pregnancy to nurse 100% and God answered my prayer!!

Drew is such a good big brother, he loves to kiss on Evan. Sometimes he is a little to helpful as he gets in his face or roughly share his cars & trucks. The sweetest thing is when Drew grabs Evan's hand when he is crying and just holds it. He also loves to give Evan his Pacifier! He is really a huge helper & good big brother!!

I wil try not be such a stranger!! Christie

UPDATED VIDEO: EVAN is ONE MONTH!

WOW, as I was looking at this blog I realized it has been a month since I posted...now that is not like me. I guess I have a few excuses:

*New Baby

*Family Visits
*LOTS of packing
*BIG MOVE...YES we are in DALLAS and trying our best to settle in.

So, I would say those are some good excuses for being a little behind. Anyhow, Evan is growing so fast, I just can't believe it has been a month! He is really starting to Coo, which I love and we are seeing his sweet little smile more and more. Evan is a great sleeper, which he has been since birth. He is like Drew in the sense that he likes to be part of everything, so sometimes it is a little tough to get him to sleep, but once he is there it is ALL GOOD. Evan is much more of a snuggler than Drew was, which I LOVE!!

Evan is very strong and tried to hold up even before we left the hospital, he now holds it up with no problem! I do have to say Evan is such a gassy boy, so those moments can be tough, but if that is all then I think we are okay. Enjoy some fun pics & videos!!


Speaking of Drew he is a GREAT big brother, he is always kissing and snuggling with Evan. I do have to say his sweet is sometimes TOOO SWEET.
