My big girl is SO READY for summer! Ever since the temperatures have risen, she wants to be outside all of the time! She loves to play on "the jungle" (aka the jungle gym), catch bugs, and play with Finley (her two year old friend next door). She has also lost absolutely no interest in her sister so far. Every time Lyla wakes from a nap, Evelynn rushes to her side with squeals of excitement that "Wila's awake! I want to see Wila!" I keep thinking that this is going to get old, but we are going four months strong now. Evelynn mothers her to exhaustion (literally, until Lyla goes back down for a nap). This has its goods and bads, as I am sure you can imagine. Evelynn has also had renewed interest in all things alphabet related. She has always loved letters, but now that she knows the sounds that the letters make (thanks to a lovely DVD by the name of The Letter Factory by Leapfrog!), she talks about her letters nonstop! This has been a lot of fun to watch her grow in her understanding of the world around her. I love to watch her try to read words based on the sounds that the letters make. She never ceases to amaze me!
Chowing our first strawberries of Spring!
My sweet girl! I can't believe how big she is getting!
Evelynn found Brad's glasses on his nightstand and wore them out to the living room. Before I took them away, I had to shoot some pictures. Hilarious!
Doesn't she just look ornery in this one?!
My goodness she is growing up so much!!
