Evan's Third Birthday Party At Grandma and Grandpa Mac's

So this Saturday Evan will be my three year old. Sad, sad, sad day...We had an early celebration at my mom's house last night because we will be in Yakima visting friends on his birthday. I was going to pick up James Micheal from my moms, because he got to have a sleepover for the holiday weekend. Well, it soon turned into a celebration for Evan. My sweet and very talented sister-in-law made delicious chocolate caramel cupcakes. And his favorite meal of all time, mac and cheese and hot dogs. He also got presents. All candy...he was over the moon, the kid loves chocolate as much as I do! My mom took some adorable pictures! This one is my favorite by far!!

I will say that Evan has had a lot happen to him in his second year of life. He has had 2 MRI's, blood tests, x-rays, and eye exams. He has handeled them all like such a champ. He is walking or should I say running everywhere. He has a lot of very clear words now and is excited to start preschool next week. He has such a sweet and gentle spirit. I have never run across someone like him in my whole life. His Spirit just exudes from him, he has the love of Christ in him. I love the way he takes care of babies and talks to them. I love the faces he makes, they are hilliarous. I love how he snuggles with us on the couch, and hugs us so tight you feel every bit of love in it. He is a wonderful son and I am so grateful to be his mother. We love you Evan!!!

Life...

Life is going great. James Micheal did not like getting his tonsils out and the recovery has been horrid, but I have a feeling the benefits will be wonderful once he feels better. Makayla is loving being back to school. Evan turns 3 this month. Crazy! He runs everywhere, starting to say more words, and starts preschool on the 23rd! Sadie is going to be walking in a week guaranteed. I am so proud of her, she says a few words and is well on her way to being a wild toddler. James starts school again on the ninth, and has been working his tush off. I am almost halfway through my pregnancy, and starting to feel pretty darn good. I am excited to find out what the baby will be. I usually have a feeling one way or another, but I just don't this time. I am totally stumped. I will update with pictures soon. But we are all doing well and loving life!
