Summer with Evelyn is so much fun. We spend lots of time outside playing with water, buckets, rocks, toy trucks, and balls. We are enjoying our Burley bike trailer and it is our main mode of transportation to and from several nearby playgrounds. She loves exploring the playground, especially the slides. We spend as much time as we can outside, and if we are inside we are constantly hearing Evelyn chant "outside, outside" and she will bring us both her shoes and ours. :)
It has been a while since I have given a formal update on what Evelyn has been up to lately. So here goes. She weighed 22 pounds, 2 ounces at 18 months and was 33 inches tall.
