The Adventures of Alaina and Evan

by Erin on February 22, 2011 · 4 comments

Alaina and I are spending a bit of time at my mom’s house while Prince Charming works on some long overdue construction projects at our house.  Now that Alaina is mobile, it didn’t seem like a great idea to have her and a tile saw sharing space.  While we’ve been here, we’ve had lots of great time with Nana, Alaina’s adopted aunties, and her buddy Evan.  One of our favorite evenings involved a long overdue Christmas gift exchange and some playtime with Alaina and Evan in matching jammies.  Here are a few of my favorite moments:

She’s heading right for him..  Watch out, Evan!

“Oh look, a camera!”

Evan has no idea what’s coming, as he’s still being adorable for the camera…

Almost there!

Surprise!  The wrestling match begins..

Evan sneaks in with a chomp to the arm…

Alaina tosses him, but he manages a hair pull on the way down!

So cute!  Hard to believe there’s a 3 month age difference between these two!

Evan has had enough.  Soak up the victory, Alaina, this kid is going to be twice your size in no time, and he’ll get his revenge!

Playing nicely again.

Baby’s First Christmas

by Erin on January 22, 2011 · 2 comments

Alaina’s first Christmas was so much fun.  As expected, she had an overwhelming amount of gifts to open between the two family Christmases.  In addition, her Aunt Anissa gave me one of the best gifts I’ve ever gotten -some great photos to remember Alaina’s first Christmas by!  We are so lucky to have such a talented photographer there for all of our big moments, and so grateful that she’s willing to take some time to work during her family vacations -I can’t thank you enough Anissa!

Here are a few (yes, I could only narrow it down so far!) of my favorites:

Jumperoo!

September 2, 2010

The past few weeks Alaina has discovered her lower half -holding her feet, kicking, and most recently, trying to stand.  She wants to be “up” all the time these days, either sitting or standing on whomever is holding her.  We are very fortunate to have been blessed with the BEST. NEIGHBORS. EVER. -Proven again by [...]

Splish Splash….

June 10, 2009

A few weeks ago, I was cleaning out the hot tub, and was just filling it with cold, clean water.  I rounded the corner just in time to hear the tell tale splash of Cooper, engaging in two of his favorite activities -water and mischief:
