Our contest...

Okay, so this could probably use an explanation. Last Saturday, my parents church had a "Paws and Pancakes" for the Fall kick-off weekend. The idea was to bring your dogs, dress them up, and have a parade. Well, we went for the western theme. My mom made "costumes" for the dogs and Evan, and my sister, mom and I did bandannas and hats. I don't know if you can tell, but the dogs are dressed as horses and each have a saddle and teddy bear on their backs. Evan also rode Benny a few times. It was a hilarious morning filled with laughter and chaos!! One we will probably never forget. And the big news...we actually won best companion and pet costume!! I have the trophy on my mantle to prove it!

Laundry

So, Evan discovered his laundry basket the other day. This is him emptying it out. :)

Sleeping

Evan is a CRAZY sleeper. He crawls all over the place in his sleep. He sticks his rear-end in the air and usually crunches himself up against the side of his crib.

Evan

So, this is Evan showing off the clump of dog hair that he found on the carpet. Two answers: Yes, I do vaccum my house. and Yes, I do love my dogs even though they shed a lot.

Daddy and Evan

Casey

So, Mr. Fix-it was unclogging our kitchen sink. I think this is hilarious because he has the plunger in one hand, and a york in the other. In case you were wondering, yes he did unclog it... My hero!!

Pool time!

This is his scrunchy-nose face. Pretty funny if you ask me!
One of our favorite things to do this summer was going to the pool! Evan really enjoyed being in the water!

Bath time!

Apparently, his bath animals decided to climb up him while he was distracted. We're going to have to watch those guys a little more closely!

Busy Boy!

Evan is constantly on the move now that he is crawling! He is our busy boy!

"Little O"

At work, they were able to use the "Little O" costume for a few days. (He is the mascot for Big O in the Denver area).

Getting into trouble...

Since he's been crawling, he's been finding ways to get himself into some "trouble"!!

Best buddies...

Nine Month Pictures

So, here he is at 9 months! I know, I know - they're a month late as always...

Haircut!

His hair was starting to get a little long in front and around his ears, so I gave him a little trim! He did great!

Reading his friends a story!

Learning to get around...

This was when he was beginning to figure out how to get around. He was hanging on for dear life!!
