Cute cute professional photos

Two and a half weeks ago Alicia, from Alicia Marie Photography in Gardnerville, took some photos of Evey. Super cute and had to share on the blog!

St Patrick's Day

We didn't do anything crazy big for St. Patrick's Day and missed out on my sister's awesome dinner (boo for missing third naps!) but it's all good, we had a pretty good day anyway;) It was also Achilles' ninth birthday! Our cat is getting old!

She woke up in her St. Patty's jammies (thanks Aunt Jen!)

And I later put her cute festive onesie, complete with shamrock headband.

And then had to give her a shot glass, because it's the drinking holiday and I thought it was funny!

She and I did some shopping in the afternoon with some Ardella and wee Quest and went to dinner at The Flowing Tide when Chris got home.

Like I said, nothing crazy, but festive enough that I feel like I did something to make Evey's first St. Patrick's day memorable;)

Allergist Trip

So I thought that Evey might have a cat allergy due to prolonged bouts of stuffiness and excessive nose and eye rubbing, and I'm allergic to cats. I took her to the allergist yesterday and they tested her for cat and dust allergens.

I was worried that she was going to freak out, but she was chill as we waited to see if she developed any hives.

Like I said, super happy and tearing up all of the paper on the exam table.

Like, all of the paper.

Anyway, turns out she's not allergic to cats and dust! Yay! Not entirely sure what the symptoms mean, but it's all good, they don't seem to bother her much anyway.

10 Months

Man, my kid is getting old, but she's aging well;) Check out these super cute pictures we did yesterday!

Super wiggly!

Crazy how time flies, I can't believe her birthday is in two months! I still have a lot of DIY decor to make.

Wee Evey still has no intention of moving independently, but she loves to walk while holding our hands, ALL THE TIME. My back's killing me! And she kinda sorta has a tooth now, a tiny point is jutting through, but for nursing purposes, they can stay in there for a little while longer;) She's eating all kinds of foods but still doesn't want to feed herself, but she does enjoy feeding puffs and yogurt melts to mom and dad. And she's found out how to clap, so that's super cute.

Valentine's Day

I might have said this last year, but I think Valentine's Day is pretty awesome. I love the cheese factor of it and have never taken it too seriously, as in, I don't expect Chris to bring home a dozen roses and lavish me with gifts, not my thing. Now that we've got Evey, we decided that we will continue the no pressure Valentine's Day we've always done, but will now include her. This day is going to be for spreading family love, cheesiness style;)

We went for breakfast at Peg's at 8, so no showers because we wanted to beat the rush. We had an awesome time and it was fun to watch the other customers fawn over Evey and have her wave back at them:) 

And she was in a red hooded long onesie with pink hearts, of course;)

Then we went for a walk to the park and enjoyed the unseasonably warm February weather. Evey even had her first swing and slide ride.

And due to this lovely weather, her ensemble changed to a lovely gray romper with pink hearts and emblazoned with "I love mommy".

Then we had an impromptu wine/play picnic in our neighbor's yard.

Evey enjoyed her sippy cup. Thanks for letting us crash your day, Sherry!

And then we had dinner at the nearby Chinese place. We wanted all you can eat dim sum, but they were really busy and short-staffed and we were told that the dim sum would be awhile. So we ordered off the regular menu and we were still there for an hour and a half. But it was fun and Evey and a little girl kept staring at each other, so that was fun;)

So it was a pretty good day. Chris got Evey and I some chocolate covered strawberries and lady bug brownie pops.

 

And I got Chris some cute cards from me and the kiddo and some ghost pepper candies. There are no ghost pepper candy pictures because I will not let him eat them around Evey!

I hope everyone had an awesome/cheesy/romantic Valentine's Day!
