Morning Routine
Every morning this is what I get to walk in on. Evelyn lets us know when she's awake and then its all smiles till she decides that she's hungry.
I had a cold on the day that I took this video by the way. That night I was talking to Mike about something and our next door neighbor walked in. He couldn't see me and when he heard me talking he asked Mike what guy he was talking to. I leaned around my husband and when Rico saw me he jumped realizing that I was the one with deep, manly voice. "Dude, you sound like a man," were his exact words.
Needless to say, Mike called me Steve the rest of the night.
Tummy Time Two
So Evelyn is now 4 months old and growing like a weed. She is the love of our lives. Mike and I are understanding why parents worry about loving their other children just because they love the one so much.
Evelyn is loving tummy time now. She holds herself up for as long as she can and then her face plops to the blanket. Here are some pictures of my little bright eyes.

Happy Merry ChristmasChanukahKwanzaa!
Mike's dear sister Bex decided to come stay the week with us, and has been nothing but a pain in the butt. Actually, she has stayed home with Meg to help out around the house, and even received a few small trinkets in her stocking.

A blessing for our blessing.

Evelyn was blessed with some very special gifts, among which was knowledge and being a strong example to others. That Sunday also happened to be one of the young men's missionary farewell, so it was definately easy to fill the meeting room to the point of explosion. What a great day for all of us. Especially Evie's dad, who had no idea what he was doing.
We also want to say "thank you" so much to Rose at Mountain View hospital.
She brought us this beautiful dress. We love you Rose!

The Styling's of the Baby
The members of the family are continually asking for more pictures. We think this should hold you over for a while.
Thanksgiving Investment
This Thanksgiving was great. We not only got to see our families but we made one of the best investments possible.
We traded in our money vortex of a daughter for this lovely, cost efficient Lamborghini. What do you think?
We also had one of the best vacations we have had as a married couple. Our residence for the week was in Mike's grandparents finished basement. We really appreciated having our own space; access to our own bathroom, and choice of a bedtime really gave us some freedom.
The real treat of the weekend was the fact that we spent most of our time with the Pascual's. Rico and Sokimna stayed with us, and with their company, neither Meg nor I felt very obligated to have to spend time with our own families. We had our own time.... ahhh!
Happy Thanlsgiving... next year.
