One Month Old

I can't believe that Eva is already a month old. Time has flown by!


Today Eva did 2 new things. First of all she grabbed at my hair when I put her in her carseat and she hung on to it for a few seconds. She has been grabbing my finger when I feed her - so this was the first time that she grabbed at something else. Then later this afternoon she rolled from her back to her side. I was impressed! She is also getting better with her head control - although there are times where I think she is going to knock me out with her head rolls!

We are taking bets on her eye color - blue or brown?

Mister Mom

Today was Gilbert's day off work and I was looking forward to getting some things done around the house. Wouldn't you know that Eva had other plans?? She decided to not take an official nap today. The most she slept at one time was an hour. Most were just 10-15 minute naps - enough time to start a project, but not enough to finish! We are hoping this means that she will sleep a lot tonight!!

She seems to like noise and motion. So Gilbert wore the sling while vacuuming. She fell asleep but woke up as soon as Gilbert tried to take her out of the sling and put her in bed.

Gilbert and Ricco are worn out from their day. Glad they are at least resting....

Father's Day

Just a few cute pics from our relaxing Father's Day.

Finishing Touches

Mom helped with the finishing touches on the nursery while she was here. It is finally done!

Happy Birthday Katie!

On Saturday Mom, Eva and I went to Katie's birthday party. She is now 9 years old. How quickly time flies!

Date Night

On Friday night Mom offered (insisted) that Gilbert and I go out to dinner. We decided to go to Gilbert's favorite restaurant - the Brazilian Steakhouse.

My little Longhorn

The lactation consultant said that I should have any liquor, but I haven't had anything to drink in 10 months and decided that one drink wouldn't hurt!!

The red card signifies that I don't want them to bring me any meat. Whenever it is turned to green, meat is brought out.

Round 1 for Gilbert

The sides. Gilbert refuses to eat anything from the salad bar or any of the sides. He is all about the meat!

Thanks Mom for letting us enjoy a night out (although all we could talk/think about was the baby!!)

Hey Jealousy....

The dogs have done really well with Eva. Roxie is a bit much at times - she loves to lick Eva's feet (go figure!!). I also think she really is after the pacifier.

The other day I had Eva in the chair and when I took her out, Roxie took her place!
