We're home!

Sorry it's been so long! It's been a long couple of weeks, and we still have the nursery to unpack (I hope to tackle that tomorrow), but we're home, and we're loving it! We're going on walks every afternoon, exploring our new area, and it's just gorgeous.

Anyways, I won't bore you with stories about the move (for now), let me tell you about Evan. He's such a happy baby! He did great on the drive here (which took 5 days!). He napped most of the time, and then he spent the afternoons chatting away. He's a little chatterbox, this one! It was like he had to tell us all about the dreams he had while we were driving.

Now that we're back, he has taken to do something Grandpa Chuck taught him: standing. He loves standing!

So I set him up kinda laying on the boppy pillow, and from there he grabs my hands and pulls himself into a sitting position. He tries to do this by himself, his little legs go up in the air as his abs aren't strong enough to do this yet, but just a little help from me and he's sitting. And from there I pull him up into a standing position. He gets a smile almost every time!

Now that we have a carpet it'll be easier to play on the floor. It's a lot easier for us to sit next to him and help him do things that way. He's such a big, strong boy, though! Can you tell I'm a proud momma?
