21 months

Evelyn is a big girl (25 lbs.) with lots to see and lots to say...

She is beginning to talk in 2-3 word sentences. Her favorite phrases include...
"Sit down mommy/daddy"
"I want it/that"
"Go get it"
"Thank you...you're welcome"
"Lay down mommy/daddy"
"I miss you Riley"
"Go that way"
"Read book please"
"Baby go night night"
"I do it"

She loves to sing. Her favorite songs are "the wheels on the bus," "twinkle twinkle little star," and "the birthday song."  We can't get enough of her sweet voice. She will often talk or sing the entire ride home from daycare.

Evelyn is learning her colors, numbers, and ABCs. She enjoys coloring with crayons and creating art projects at school.

She loves playing with her friends and often asks about Eli, Whit, Henry, Max, Lucy, and Eva.

Evelyn is particular about what she wears and often picks out interesting outfits. If she had it her way, she would wear tights every day.  She also loves wearing the color green and anything with "sparkles."
