Evia and Santa

Santa came to our church. Evia was not a fan.


It was funny to see her waving and saying hi to Santa while crying.

Splash Park

My mom, dad, sister, brother-in-law and Bennett came to visit this past weekend. We went to the park to let the kids play and run around. There is a water splash park there, but we thought it would be off because it is October. We were wrong. Randy and I were watching Evia and Bennett play in the water area when the water suddenly came on and sprayed all of us. There was no keeping Evia and Bennett out of the water. They thoroughly enjoyed running and playing.

New Toys

Evia has several new items which are very fun to play with.
1. Orange Chair - Randy bought this for Evia. It is a seat, step stool, and jungle gym all in one.









2. Dog Kennel - For some reason, Evia has decided that Daisy's kennel is the best place to hang out.







3. Outside Playhouse - She still likes the swing best, but enjoys the playhouse and slide. She tries to climb up the slide and was sharing with Bennett.

Labor Day Fun

Evia and I went to Oklahoma for Labor Day weekend. She had fun sliding on the play set.

First Zoo Trip

We took Evia to the zoo for the first time a couple weeks ago. She really enjoyed it. She knows that our dog Daisy says "woof woof". She would stop at every animal and yell "oof oof".

She was tired by the end of the day.

Picture Post

This post is a couple months late. Evia turned 1 on May 6. We celebrated her birthday in Oklahoma over Memorial Day weekend. She needed a onesie so everyone knows who is the birthday girl.


The family ready for first birthday fun.

Evia had her own cake for smashing and eating.

Tentative at first. Not sure what to do with it.

Starting to figure it out. The cake was good!

Not shy at all now. How much can I eat in one bite?

Woo-hoo! Sugar Rush!

Ten Months Old

I haven't blogged in a while. We've been sick around the Sharp house. I had a sinus infection that lasted about a month, and Evia caught it. She was sick this past week. We are all finally on the mend though.

We took Evia in for her nine month checkup at the beginning of February. She weighed 17 lb 3 oz and was 27 inches long. No shots on that trip, so that was nice.

She turned ten months old yesterday. Here's a picture from this morning.


She is a very happy, active baby. Evia has moved to the cruising stage. She moves around the living room by walking while holding onto furniture, tables, and toys. She is pretty quick and is trying to stand on her own. I think she will be walking soon. She laughs a lot and loves playing in the bath tub. I can't believe how much she has grown and how she changes every day.
