Evan 3 Year Post

Evan is topping the charts these days!

Weight: 35 lbs/ 82%

Height:41 in/ 99%

Evan is a sweet little 3 year old.  We seriously are so lucky to have lil Ev in our lives.  He keeps us on the straight and narrow thats for sure.  He always catches us when we say Shut Up, Duh, etc.  He will promptly tell you "Oh we don't say that".  Pretty sure Evan's favorite day of the week is Sunday- he doesn't, actually I should say he HATES to miss church.  Evan is way into Tractors with trailers, Trucks with trailers, anything that can hook a trailer up to it.  He will play for hours, and we find tractors with trailers all over our house.  He recently got a little John Deere Tractor ride on and he will seriously go out and "plow" for ever! He is not the best little eater but he certainly loves: Quesidilla roll ups, yogurt, fruit snacks, bananas, anything sweet, chips, and Soda.  (Geez that doesn't sound very healthy!)

Here are some of our favorite things he says:

Oh I need to give her a love. (Always before Livi goes down for nap/bed)

I will keep you (meaning I will hold you)

Everything is "Super"- He super doesn't fit Mom

I got called into work again Mom- puts on his hat, measuring tape, pen, etc

Evan is seriously just blessed with a mellow, nice, gentle, cautious, sweet, demeanor.  He is not perfect by all means but he is pretty dang easy to say the least.  We absolutely love our little guy and wish we could freeze time NOW!
We love you Evan!!!
