Thumb Sucker

Well, it turns out that Eva is a little thumb sucker. With the exception of Bonnie sucking on her tongue, none of our other kids have been "suckers". It has been so fun to watch Eva navigate her fingers up to her face, then get her thumb into her mouth to suck on it. This new talent has been quite helpful when it comes to her soothing herself in the middle of the night. 

 My girl is always all smiles when she wakes up from napping.

 Eva likes to hold the "bottle" and she will even pinch and punch me while she eats!

Sweet little spit-up face

At the beginning of April, my brother and his wife had a sweet baby boy named Deklyn. It was a hard labor and delivery, in which they eventually did a C-section and sliced open my sister-in-law's bladder during the surgery. They had to do the C-section because he was too big to get pushed out. He looks just like my brother and is such a cute chub!

The 4th graders had to do a project on a county in Idaho and Uriah got Teton County. We had fun putting together this poster of cool things to do in Teton County.

 Here's a picture I snapped of Eva sucking her thumb. It is something we see almost every time we go to check on her at night or during naps.

 We bought some fruit trees to finish off our backyard orchard. We crammed a peach tree, plum tree, apricot and nectarine tree into our van and drove home with sticks in our faces.

 More pictures of Eva sucking her thumb. It's just too cute!

More thumb sucking. She has even started falling asleep on the play mat while sucking her thumb. She would usually stay asleep for about 15 minutes.

 I used to think that Eva wasn't getting very big very fast, but now that I'm working full time and leaving the house every day, she seems to be growing faster!

She's getting a few pudge rolls, but not many.

Daddy sent me this picture while I was at work. Sweet Eva sleeping on the play mat again.

Eva at church on Sunday. I got this cute outfit at Wal-Mart and just had to put her in it, and she is wearing the headband grandma M made her for her blessing day.
