Free snowcone! GRAPE is my favorite.

On Saturday we headed over to Hunter's 5th birthday party. Carson was having such a good time I didn't even get a picture of him. I was sure the red stain on his face and belly from the snowcones wouldn't come off for Sunday. He loves playing with his cousins. I did catch a few shots of Blake. Check out that serious face!

This is why dad is his favorite! He shares his snowcone. Blake loved it.


I have a very similar picture of Matt with Carson.

Papa Dave

Our boys sure do have grandparents that love them! Papa and Grandma stopped by this evening to bring Carson some "papa-corn". Dave always makes popcorn and Carson lives for it! We jokingly started calling it "papa-corn" and Carson thinks that's pretty funny. Today he tried to tell me it was Carson-corn. Nice try. The boys were sitting with Dave and I had to run get my camera. So sweet.

Carson & Blake

If you come to our house you'll know this is Carson's typical daily attire. He loves to sport his whatever day of the week undies. I dress him everyday and he always ends up looking like this. He's only three - it's cute for the time being.

Our happy Bean. We sure love this kid. He is now eight months, crawling everywhere, teething like a maniac and sporting his hood thanks to big brother Carson.

Our Family

We got home early from our family outing last Friday and had a fun time playing around and taking pictures. It has been so fun to watch Carson and Blake interact more.

The Boys

We are working on getting Carson to not say "cheese" everytime we get the camera out. His face always ends up looking like this. What cute brothers!

Blake showing Carson who's boss! Carson thought it was so funny and keeps asking Blake to climb on him.

Blake trying to escape. Carson was pretty quick with the diaper grab.

Baby in the Mirror

Blake keeps himself entertained with this mirror while Carson has swim lessons. He was mesmerized by himself. He kept looking himself, looking at me, looking back at himself, trying to give himself kisses and just talking. Everyone thought it was the cutest. Blake turned 8 months yesterday! Where does the time go?

Happy 4th and Happy Birthday!

On Saturday we celebrated the 4th of July holiday as well as Dave's birthday! The 4th is always packed full of fun at the Evans household. We enjoyed a BBQ, swimming, naps or shopping, more food, more swimming, delicious Angel Pie and topped it all off with a fireworks show!

Carson, Gail & Dave

A quick picture durning the fireworks!

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

Grandma Gail & Grandsons

Gail and I headed out for a little home decor shopping the other day. I found some really cute stuff for my dining room table. I got an email last week from a friend in Utah full of ideas, links, explanations, etc on how to give my dining room area a lift! I'm so excited about the possibilities. Thanks again Jamie for all your input! The makeover is still in the works and I'll post before and after pictures soon! While we were shopping Carson said he wanted to hold Blake. Like I've said before - this is definitely a rare occasion! I ended up getting this darling photo of Gail and the boys. So cute. I seriously have the best in-laws.

Not tired?

Carson didn't want to take a nap the other day. He kept telling me he wasn't tired. I told him he could play quietly in his room or out by the couch. I went to find him a few minutes later and saw that he had carefully slipped his little body under our sheets and between our pillows without disturbing anything. I found him because he was snoring.

I unwraped his head so he wouldn't sweat to death. I have very warm sleepers at my house. Half the time when Carson gets up you'd think he just jumped out of the shower.
