The neglected Hunter

It is sad but true this dog has been left in the dust these last couple of months:( Before I had Evan he was walked every night and sometimes even in the morning! But since Evan has come into our lives he has been neglected. I miss him. Taking care of three kids (well really 4 kids if you count my husband) takes up all my time. Whenever I get the chance to go out on a walk or run with him I am reminded of why I love him. I really think he smiles when he sees the leash, man he is so easy to please! So these pictures are from one of our night walks a couple days ago.

Baby Evan

Soon this little boy will be my little toddler, but for now he is still my baby and definitely getting treated like one! He finally learned to crawl several weeks ago, and he has enjoyed this new little freedom of his. He is getting into drawers and pulling everything out. He loves to play in the fridge and thinks its pretty cool. He loves being able to hide from me and especially his little friend Olivia (she is very overbearing with him and now he can actually get away if he is quick enough!) He is such a sweet baby, but he sure knows how to work me over. If I am present he will whine until he gets what he wants, but if I am not there he is perfectly content, little booger! He sleeps through the night very well and loves his own space in his crib. I tried to nap with him the other day and he was not having it. He wanted his own bed and own space. I am sure in love with this boy!

My first mountain bike racing experience

I have no idea how Erin talked me into this, but I did it! I have to admit it was quite thrilling and actually more fun than I thought. Towards the end I got a little lost and went of course and so bikers were lapping and passing me. I was definitely cursing under my breath at Erin for making me do it, but when it was all over I was quite proud of myself. It was also exciting to see my little fans towards the finish line!

Olivia's dance showcase

Olivia got to perform on the big stage and she kept playing it off that she wasn't that excited, but once we got there I could tell she couldn't wait to perform! This year with dance has been hard. Olivia would keep telling me that she hated dance or didn't want to go, but once we got there she was in heaven and loved every minute of it. I wasn't going to sign her back up just because she has had a poor attitude all year with it, but after last nights performance I could tell that she loved it! So I will try one more year and hopefully she won't fight me on it. And in all honesty I think she likes to do whatever opposite thing I say or do....if I like it she doesn't and vice versa. Man am I going to love raising her as a teenager, yikes;)
