Teething Time

Our little baby is teething. I'm just glad that's what it is, and not an ear infection or a cold! I bought her biter biscuits today and she loves them...so much that she fell asleep with one in her hand.

Better Late Than Never, Right?

Happy Easter everyone!

Exciting, Amazing, Awesome News

Mike, Kara and Evelyn Rushforth are moving to California!!!

I am so proud of Mike for working super hard to get a job there; he's really wanted to move back home since Christmas. The new job is at Torrance airport where he will flight instruct, do some corporate flying and eventually even whale watching tours. We will love being back with our families and friends there. I am happy that we will be able to call Evie a California girl :) I hope our family will enjoy many future moments at this place...



It definitely feels real, we're moving in less than 2 weeks! We just sold our futon tonight and are surrounded by boxes and messes. It's going to be a crazy couple weeks, but so worth it!!

Evelyn's First 'Big Girl' Meal

Evelyn had her first rice cereal dinner about a week ago. She wasn't too impressed with the mushy new food. But thanks to the advice of friends and family she now loves her rice cereal with a touch of applesauce.

Not so sure about this stuff...


Mom and Dad what are you guys doing to me???


Yuck, I've had enough!

Evelyn Goes Swimming

Evelyn had her first swim in a giant pool! She wasn't too sure if she liked it, but she never cried. These pictures capture the essence of her demeanor during the entire event.





Maybe next time I'll be able to get a smile out of her!

Fun With Photo Editing

I've always used photoshop to edit pictures, but today I decided to try picnik. So fun! Here are the two pics I messed with.

Sunsets and Stuff

Lots of things have happened, and I have yet to blog about them. I've got loads of great pictures from our vacation to California in December, updates about Evelyn and other fun stuff. But lately, blogging has not been the priority, sorry! Today I just wanted to say hello and show you all this beautiful sunset we enjoyed a few weeks ago.
