Evelyn, Warrior Princess




Playing Together

Sebastian and Evelyn love to play together in his room.  While there are times that Sebastian, "would like to have some alone time please,"  they really enjoy each other's company. One day Sebastian pulled a large cooler into his room to play with.





Besides playing with her brother, Evelyn loves to play in the laundry.  She is a very messy baby who thoroughly enjoys being destructive; thus, she loves to play with the unfolded laundry as she thinks that she is being very messy.  She also likes to put things over her head.




Thorin Oakenshield

We recently read The Hobbit to Sebastian.  This is him dressed up as Thorin Oakenshield; he also has a "Thorin Voice" that he does.

Garden Produce

Here is some of the produce from our garden.  Unfortunately, that is the only summer squash that we will be getting for a long while, as our summer squash bushes were recently murdered by Squash Vine Borers (I hate the little suckers).  Fortunately, our cucumbers and butternut squash are safe.  We have been enjoying a bounty of cherry tomatoes, lettuce, and green beans, and everything else is growing well.  I can't wait to eat my homegrown eggplant. 

Sebastian Reading "Mac and Tab"

I am always posting videos of Evelyn, so I thought that it was time to post something with just Sebastian.  The reason that he is lying on the coffee table, is that Patrick was on the couch reading.  So, Sebastian got a blanket for Patrick, and a blanket for himself, and he laid down to read like daddy.

Dancing Baby

This video requires a bit of an explanation. One night we were listening to Beethoven and when it got to an loud part, Evelyn would start to shake her head a lot (like you see in this video). However, by the time I got the camera out and shot the video, this was her fourth time of shaking her head at the louder portions




Playing Pretend

 It has been a while since I posted any pictures, but I am attempting to make up for lost time. These are pictures from the beginning of May.  Evelyn was almost 10 months in this picture. Sebastian was pretending to to be Knight and Evelyn was the Princess that he was rescuing.

 The Princess giving the Knight a kiss as a thank you for his bravery.

I love the look on her face in this picture.
