July Visitors

This month we had several visitors, we had an exchange student from Madrid, Spain--Almudena, our friends Stephanie and Tyler swung by on their way back to Texas from Iowa and my mom, Grandma Carri came to visit.  Here's some photos of our interactions with them.

Four Months

Evangeline is four months old (okay a little older at this point). She is thriving in every since of the word. She is 15 lbs 13 ounces, 26 inches long and in the 90th percentile for height.

Greg and I are really enjoying spending time with her, although we have a lot going on personally with work and school. Evangeline is learning to crawl, she also loves her jump-and-play swing, and her bath toys. She is very attentive and has some great facial expressions. Below are some photos of her last month.

This month was full of firsts including her first trip to the pool and first Valentine's day. Her Grandpa Jack and G'ma Rachel visited at the end of January, her Wiggins Grandparents visited the week after Valentine's day.

We also took a trip to Chicago to see the Perreaults two weeks ago. Evangeline got to meet her second cousins and great aunts and uncles. It was well worth the seven hour drive to see them.

She just had a visit from her Aunt Sarah. Evan showed off her pool skills and her rolling abilities during Aunt Sarah's visit, not to mention her kooky personality.

Evangeline has a steady group of baby friends now and hosted her first party for Valentine's day. She also enjoys her weekly play date with her friend Claire.

Claire is teaching Evan the importance of sitting up, but Evan has not quite grasped it.
