The sunday after my last post we were hopeful that Connor would have a good sunday. We are still trying to get him to go into nursery. Our day was a bit of a disaster. He freaked out getting out of the car, headbanged into the asphalt, then cried through the first 15 minutes of church. I finally went out to the foyer and we all sat out there the remained of Sacrament meeting where he fell asleep.
Of course Daddy tried to use the opportunity to encourage Evelynn to walk... which she wasn't fond of. She just laughed and laughed and threw herself forward like it was a game.
After trying to coax him into Nursery (which did not work, he was traumatized and screaming like someone was murdering him) he started biting, and bit a hole into Caleb's shirt. So, we took him home. When we got home he started headbanging and screaming, and gave himself a huge goosegg.
I was so sad about it... but he just hasn't caught on that he shouldn't do it.
Four days later he had bruises all over his forehead from it.
That evening while I was watching my usual shows, the kids came to snuggle with me.
And then they decided to play.
Connor started acting a bit off on Monday. He slept in and Evelynn kept trying to get him to wake up! The next day we called his doctor because I was pretty sure it was an ear infection. We couldn't get him in until Wednesday afternoon, but I was right, it was ANOTHER double ear infection. :(
While brother was feeling sick, Evelynn was getting into all sorts of trouble!
Evelynn climbed on the dishwasher while I was trying to fill it. She was so proud of herself.
This week, Daddy come home from work and had bought Frozen! Of course, we had to watch it. Evelynn had a blast dancing to "Love is an open door"
On Friday I had big plans to go to JoAnn Fabrics as soon as Caleb got home from work to get supplies for crafting during General Conference.
While we waited I took the kids outside to play and they had a blast!
Over conference weekend I made a lot of headbands, mostly for friends, but a few for Evelynn. I needed her to have one for her Easter dress, for her birthday outfit, and for her smash cake pictures. I also made her a tutu and worked on some other decorations for her party with my parents!
Of course she had to model the headband and tutu. And I had to take pictures of what she will wear!
Also this weekend, I told Caleb to give Evelynn some leftover lasagna. Well, little did I know, I would give her the ENTIRE container! I was welcomed by this lovely little face and a whole lot of mess!
Another fun event, Evelynn started walking on Saturday night!
The picture and video are from today, but she walked 18 steps by herself on Saturday night. We were shocked. That morning she was only doing 2 at a time, and then she suddenly did 18.
We think she woke up and just set her mind to it, deciding it would be the day she would walk.
Yesterday I had a play-date scheduled for the kids. We took Daddy to work, played at the park, then went to the library for the play-date. It turned into a very long morning because I lost my phone and had to go back to the library after and look for it... I had to use the library's phone to call it and found it buried in the couch I had been sitting on! The long morning wore both the kids out by the time we were home.
