Santa brought Evelyn a dollhouse this year, she was very excited and took her awhile before she would open any presents.
Same at my moms she opened up a Barbie doll with Doggies and was done she didn't want anything else until much later and with much encouragment from cousin Hailey
We were able to visit Hunter Christmas Eve morning which was nice. He was very excited to see Evelyn and she was very concerned about him. The therapy dog came for a visit while we were there, which Evelyn thinks is Pongo from 101 dalmations so was just crazy about Nel, Hunter likes it when they come visit also.
At Grandma Seeleys getting ready to open presents, she really got into the whole present thing this year and could hardly stand having to wait.
The 3 older girl cousins with their dolls. Aunt Jenny was taking their picture and told them to say princess which Evelyn replied "Mermaid" She is something else!Thanks to Grandma Kitty and her passes we made a trip out to the magic house for the price of just one of us...it was a great day. They open at 10:30 on a few days a week for ages 1-6. It was perfect the areas that were open were the areas she really enjoyed and then we spent some time later in the other areas.
Water play area
She did some fishing.
She actually got to stand inside a bubble and she was able to pull it up herself if we started it for her.
One of her favorite activities, there was air blowing out that would blow the air up, here Jeff and her were plugging some of the holes to make the one go up higher.
Evelyn did not enjoy this activity as much, but Jeff and I and others in the room were in tears we were laughing so hard. This just shows how much hair she really has even though it doesn't look like much.We took a trip to Build a Bear last Friday night in hopes to say bye bye to Evelyn's "minkies" as she calls them. We wanted to long gone before baby comes in June. I had heard of people putting them in the paws of an animal and that helped so they could still feel the binky. Well Evelyn was all set until I got them out and started to put them in the horse she picked out, she then took the horse back and threw it back in the bin and told me to put them back in the bag and walked out to the fountain. So after a long discussion she put 3 in the trash can and we saved one to put in the bunny she picked out. She really had a great time making the animal and was happy when we left. She is doing pretty well without her binky and I have only had the to sew the bunny back up once so far. She is too smart, she knew exactly where to try after watching the lady sew it up.
She was warming up the heart.
Giving her bunny an air bath.
Carrying her new bunny named "Minky" in the little back pack....the highlight.
