13 Months

Evelyn is 13 months old - here are some shots from the park today. You may notice she has a scrape on her nose and chin - she has had a few falls walking this week - but they are healing nicely. Evelyn has gained a pound (19lbs 7oz) and grown .5" (29.5) in the last month. She is a great walker now and her vocabulary is growing. It is cool here today - it feels great! We'll spend Thanksgiving with some other families here - we will miss everyone at home to be sure. We are planning to go to Santa Barbara on Friday to the zoo. It will be a family outing - one of our first chances to explore California since moving here.

Slide down slides on my belly all by myself!

With Thanksgiving

Evelyn drank milk from a sippy cup today. She was tricked initially - I gave her the sippy cup in a dimly lit room - she could not tell that it was not water until she drank. After that, it seemed to be okay...I am very thankful! We are also one week post pacifier at bedtime and naptimes. A lot of transition, and she is doing great! That being said, she still likes to be in charge - here she is in charge of the remote:

Happy Halloween Cat

Evelyn likes cats! A good portion of her vocabulary has to do with cats. She had a cat birthday and she was a cat for Halloween. Here she is...The group photo is the neighbor boys who adore her. She is in danger of being quite spoilt by them all!
