This is what happens when you pee all over yourself... (1.22.15)

Evra decided she wanted to pee all over herself, her clothes, and her changing table while we were attempting to change her.  So she got a bath out of the whole ordeal.  But while we were waiting for her bath to be ready, Mommy dressed her in a very unique outfit...

I think the changing table cover looks quite nice on her...

Look at that enormous belly!!

Good thing I put that sweatshirt underneath her on the bed, because she decided to pee AGAIN while we were waiting for the bath and it soaked through the changing table cover and on to the sweatshirt!  Well, at least we know that she has good kidneys...

Fun with Dr. Seuss! (1.20.15)

Having fun reading Dr. Seuss books with Mommy on her day off of work!

"Look, Mom!  I can hold the book all by myself!"

"And I can eat the books, too!"

Concentrating on her reading...

In Mike's words, Evra is "digesting the material!"  =)

Already loving story time!!

Chili cook-off (1.18.15)

Today we had four Fourth Annual Spiegel Chili Cook-Off at our house, which was Evra's First Annual Spiegel Chili Cook-Off.  We had a great turn-out, with probably over 25 people there and 10 different chilis!

Evra was a bit overwhelmed by the crowd, and spent most of the afternoon  sleeping in her Ergo...

... But she woke up to spend some time cuddling with Uncle Sam and taking in part of the football game!

Mommy made Evs a cool onesie for the Chili Cook-off!  Too bad the iron-on didn't want to stay ironed-on...

Hanging out with Auntie Lahia!

Look at that cute face!

Congrats to Adrian & Kelly and Phil for their victories in their respective categories of chili (Carnivore and Vegetarian)!

And a shout-out to Mike who decided to make these silly trophies for the victors this year...

Playing "Headbandz" with Ailia and Daddy... (1.17.15)

Evra and Ailia had a sleepover on Saturday night!  Sleepover was complete with game-playing fun!

Unfortunately, Ailia wanted nothing to do with the picture-taking portion of the evening...

Ready for Spring! (1.17.15)

Evra was dreaming of Spring days today in her new outfit.  Many thanks to the Spragues for the adorable hat and booties!

Yes, I am biased.  But isn't Evra just adorable?!?!

So happy!!!

Unfortunately, the reality is that (even though we live in California!) it is not quite warm enough yet to dress for Spring.  So Evra dressed a bit more appropriately for winter in CA...

And then she proceeded to kick off the booties...

An up-close shot of the booties, because they are just so cute!  =)
