Evan The Climber




Evan you can't walk yet but you can climb! You were in the toy room and you wanted a certain toy. Instead of screaming because you can't get to the toy you got in the bucket and got the toy yourself! You also wanted to get into your walker. So I put you in and about 10 minutes later I found you sitting on the walker. Your such a ham...you keep me on my toes all day long that's for sure!

ER Avery


Avery you have been doing so well with your spelling words, you have know to 107 words by sight by the end of your 1st grade year. You already know 95 of them NOW...Wow...I know your awesome....Anyways last week you got 7/10 on your spelling test the previous 3 weeks you had gotten 100%. So we were working on your spelling words and you were struggling with the word UNDER. You kept spelling the word without the letter E. So I repeat ER Avery...I did this about 5 or 6 times. So Toby walked around the house saying ER Avery.....ER Avery....You kids crack me up, I don't know what I would do without you guys! This picture above was taken when you were waiting for Grandma and Grandpa Robertson to come get you and take you to get Ice Cream, to celebrate you doing so well in school Avery, of course Toby got to come along this time at least!

Evan


Love this guy! He has been my happiest baby! Not that the other 2 haven't been happy, Avery you were my easiest baby, such a easy going guy I loved it! Toby you were my snuggle baby, you love blankets like your daddy and you loved to snuggle with him or me, Evan is my giggly baby you can make him smile no matter what! I love it!

No Throwing Food


Toby you learned very quickly not to throw food. You didn't want to eat you dinner so you decided to scream in the living room to protest what I was trying to give you for dinner, when I made you come in the kitchen you threw a huge fit and when I put your plate in front of you, you picked it up and threw it on the ground, I made you pick it up and put it back on the plate, you the whole entire time kept saying ewwww gross Mom! I kept saying well, if you didn't throw it on the ground you wouldn't have to be picking it up! Ha! Sorry!

Drool Is Cool



Evan your favorite thing to do right now is to suck on your fist...and to drool on my shoulder! The moment I put you up over my shoulder you start to suck away! I had to change my shirt the other day because you soaked it! Your getting so big!!!

My Boys!





I finally was able to get a picture of all three of you guys! Only took 3 months but it's finally done!! Avery was happy and smiled wonderfully, Toby was giggling the whole time and Evan just layed there like a lump on a log...what can you expect your not even 3 months old! I have such cute boys!

Evan updates


I am going to list off some random things about you Evan before I forget them. I am sure I have forgotten some already, it's crazy to think you have been apart of our lives for 2 months already!


1. When you were first born you would Hoot like an owl. You would be passed out asleep and out of no where you would start to hoot! You still will do it now but not nearly as often as you did before.


2. When you were born you came out PISSED....Screaming at the top of your lungs...it was the best cry ever! With both of your older brothers being NICU babies I was so happy you were not going to be one!


3. Like your brother Toby you love to sleep in your car seat...you also like to sleep on your belly but it for some reason scares me so until your older your sleeping in your car seat!


4. You are a Mommy's boy...for now! Toby is such a Daddy's boy and Avery is in the middle...so it's so NICE to have a Mama's boy..for now! It's nice to have you want to snuggle with me! I love it!


5. You have gone through 3 different types of formula so far and 2 different types of diapers and 2 different types of wipes!!! We think your stomach doesn't agree with Milk so we might be switching you to Soy here soon! The diapers and wipes it was just you skin didn't like certain types so we had to switch around!


6. You LOVE blankets..you are already like Toby & Daddy! Blankets with you at all times!


7. You will sleep whenever I am awake...the MOMENT I close my eyes.....you wake up! And at night you like to fuss and make noise and still be asleep...you fuss just enough to wake me up I check on you (your bed is right next to my side of the bed) and your passed out....Some nights it drives me bonkers!
8. You grunt more than any kid I know! You will sitting there and just start grunting away, it's really quite funny!
9. You LOVE being held....you will throw a HUGE fit until someone picks you up, then you are happy and usually fall asleep but if we put you down, man alive you get pissed!!!
10. I love you & your brothers so much! I am glad you are apart of our family!

Evan Shaffer







So baby brother Evan is finally here! Born March 30th 2010 at 10:48 AM he was 6lbs 4oz and 18 inches long, the exact same as Toby! Toby you keep calling him your baby and Avery you were more interested in playing with Toby when we were up at the hospital, when people asked if you liked your new baby brother you let out this HUGE sigh and said....yeahhhhhhh! LOL boys are so funny! I love you boys, I can't believe I am a Mom of you all!
