I don't know where the month of January has gone? We have been extremely busy, we've already had 2 sets of visitors (Grandma Rae Dene & Grandpa Kirk and Uncle Martin and Aunt Kendal). We've been to Utah to visit family and witness the blessings of Porter and Tate! I feel like I'm treading water trying to stay afloat with everything that is goin on! But life is good! Little Miss Evelyn continues to grow and be a delight in our family. Lately she's been giving me kisses on the mouth--so sweet. She sits up great! She rolls like no other--literally from one end of the room to the other. She has gotten up on all fours and taken one crawling motion--she is defintely getting close. She LOVES to eat and is starting to figure out her pinchers! She has the cutest belly laugh and giggles. She continues to be the best baby ever and is so chill. Here she's sporting a new outfit from Grandma & Papa and legwarmers that Aunt Lo made her for Christmas. 


Miss Claire has decided that she onlylikes to wear "up" sleeves aka short sleeves and doesn't like "down" sleeves--long sleeves. She is really growing up. She continues to make me laugh every day. Lately she's been telling me to take a chill pill. The other day she said something not so cute..she told me to "shut up". I did a double take and said what?! I explained that we don't say that and if she repeated it again she'd get soap in her mouth. Then she kept asking who taught her that word. First she suggested Grandma, but when I said we'd call and ask she changed her story and said maybe Papa taught her, so she called Papa, but he told her no way. She did tell the grass to shutup the other day. I said something to her and she said, "I didn't say it to you Mom. I said it to the grass." Claire also loves wearing skirts, so she's okay wearing these up sleeves and skirt that Grandma and Papa got her.

This sweet girl has now lost both front teeth. Over Christmas one was super loose and Uncle Chase said if she lost it on Christmas day the tooth fairy would bring $100!!! She tried hard but it ended up coming out two days later. She lost the second one last week! Now she's lost 4 teeth and is only 5! She's wearing her new sweater and shoes from grandma and Papa and her new bow that Aunt Lo made.
