And we have a turkey!!

Evan was at the doctor today, and he weighed 20lbs and 12 oz. with his clothes and diaper on. I think it's safe to say he is at least 20lbs...our very own butterball!

I took him to the doctor because he had two suspicious bumps on his leg with white centers when he woke up. Of course, they were gone by the time we had our appointment at 1pm, but I wanted the doctor to check another little bump on his head anyway. Evan was diagnosed with "paranoia ala mommy." :) All is well...just a scratch on the head and a bug bite on the leg.

We're heading to PA in the morning, and Ev will have his first trip to Knoebels. We're excited to see what he thinks of all the lights and sounds!

He's growing so fast!!

Evan has had quite an eventful summer. On July 4th, after watching the fireworks, he decided it would be a good time (11pm) to get up on his hands and knees and start rocking back and forth. That's the first time he got up like that with his belly off the floor. He also practiced sitting up while we were at the beach. I'm going to say that he officially sat up on July 12 because I haven't had to put a pillow behind him for when he tips over since then! He catches himself if he loses his balance now. On July 13, we discovered a tooth (he now has 2!!), and on July 27, he started crawling!! He's all over now, and just today he pulled himself up to stand. He's growing up so fast. I'm so glad he's doing all this in the summer so I can be here to see it all. I told him that he's not allowed to start walking until Thanksgiving or Winter break. :)
