Camping and Fishing

This was a fish my brother Ricky caught. Evan loved it when we caught fish. One day Evan and I caught a few fish and each time we did he would say "We finally did it mom". My Aunt Vicki has the pictures of the fish we caught. We had a good time fishing.

This picture was taken by Vela lake which is on the top of the Grand Mesa near Grand Junction Colorado.

Backyard Fun

In my Aunt Vicki's back yard they have a little Zip line from the playhouse to the tree. One day Evan even played with the sprinkler and then decided he would chase me with it. He also had fun swinging with Grandma.

Train Trip to Ogden

We decided to ride the train from Woodscross to Ogden. This was the easiest way to get to Ogden for a short visit and also do something that Evan would enjoy. I think he had a good time on his first real train ride.

Evan hitting Pinata

We went to the Vaterlaus family reunion this year. Evan got to do a lot of fun things. There was a bounce house, he made his own rocket and shot it off about a 100 times, and he got to hit the pinata. He even waited patiently for his turn.

Mother's day Pictures

These were pictures that I took for Mother's day presents. I think they turned out pretty good. They are just Evan being Evan so I think they turned out pretty good.

Summer is here!

Today for memorial day we had family over to swim and barbecue. Evan loved going down the slide with the water on. I can tell that we will be one tired boy this summer, going down the slide climbing out then running to the slide again to go down again (he doesn't quite understand the whole walk around the pool concept but we are working on it).

He is also potty training and he is doing a very good job. I can tell he is so proud of himself when he goes in his potty chair. I think it is funny that his main incentive is that he gets to flush the toilet when he is done. I am so proud of him.

Evans says the funniest things

Evan says the funniest things. One day he spilled his drink of watery and he days "that's great". Yesterday Josh was exercising with the exercise ball and Evan asked him for s snack. I guess he got tired of waiting so he tool the ball and said"you can have this back after you gets my snack".

Evan is so close to being able to roll over when he is swimming. I think he has the backslide to stomach roll now just for stomach to back roll. He is doing so good in swim class, he pays attention to his teacher and doesn't try to get away like the other boy. Way to go Evan
