Just in case you forgot who we were since it's been SO LONG since my last blog post. I thought of a few of the usual excuses:
"We've been SO busy!"
"My mom's cousin's dad's brother's uncle's best friend's sister needed help with something obscure."
"My dog at my homework!" ......wait, that one might not fly....
Anyway, the truth is: I have been really lazy minus the one weekend I began working on our craft room/powder room closet project (which I'm so excited to post pictures on once at least one of the three projects to do in there is finally done- maybe over Spring Break). So, since I don't really have one special thing to post about, I'll just dump a ton of photos from the last 6 weeks and catch you up on some of our happenin's.
A Very Evans Visit
Over Winter break (okay, so that's more than 6 weeks ago- sue me) some of our college friends came up to watch football and eat and drink way too much. A couple of these friends are our pals Shane and Alison who are living out in Cali right now with their baby gal Kylie, awaiting the arrival of Baby Evans Numero Dos in the summer. This was Kylie and Cailyn's first meet and greet with each other and it was an eye opening experience for our little miss.
 |
| She was very interested in anything Alison had to do to care for Kylie |
 |
| Cailyn is so used to having everything to herself- she was a little sad when Kylie was playing with Mommy's water bottle and she didn't get to take it away like she had planned |
 |
| Kylie had a rough day playing with a big kid- what better way to calm the nerves than an ice cold Bud heavy |
The best part of making cookies is NOT the finished product- it is the raw cookie dough, period.
Nap time in her own room = playing with her toys until falling asleep in the rocking chair
It's the face- it's priceless!
 |
| "Mwah-ha-ha-ha, Daddy looks like a gril!" |
A new found interest in coloring- yup, that's be the window...
In this house, our children are sweet enough to eat.
She gets her cooking skills from her mother, and her dressing while cooking skills from her father- a T-shirt with sparkly boots is Jerod's go-to for a successful meal
A Happy 50th to Debbie
My Aunt recently turned a fabulous 50 years old, and Cailyn had a blast! The girl was a dancing fool, but who can blame her? The dance floor was incredibly inviting to all kids with the lights on the floor- for a while she just chased them and smacked them on the floor. When the big kids came out to dance though, or the "Babies!" as Cailyn calls them, she was more than ecstatic to join in.
 |
| Stylin' and profilin'- this was right before she was choked out, had her sunglasses stolen, and then got a hug hidden as a bite from another child, Cailyn took it in stride- I was more worked up about it than she was... |
My aunt and cousin decorated themselves and I was so impressed- it was chic but fun, and they said they got most of it right after Halloween and saved some moo-la that way!
 |
| If you don't laugh out loud when seeing this picture then you are not human- she looks like she's dancing to Cotton Eyed Joe....it was actually Gangam Style I believe |
Mommy leaves the bathroom for 5 seconds with the Noxema jar open and this is what happens:
When Grandma comes to stay that means iPhones, pop tarts, and basically anything else Cailyn wants
1-3 inches my foot!
So far we've gotten 12.5 inches so I'd say the weather people kinda misread this one, huh? In any case, it meant an early dismissal, no school, and time to blog! Jerod was a good Daddy and took Cailyn out for a tumble in the snow after nap.
 |
| Snow up the coat is just what every kid wants when they play in the snow! |
 |
| She forgives him though :) |

I promise it will not be 6 weeks before my next post...probably only 5...
