Internetless Life

There are so many things I want to post about but we don't have internet where we are living! This is the first chance I've gotten in a long time to sit down and do a quick update while my sisters are watching Evelyn.

Mike is loving his job and it's keeping him very busy. He hasn't been getting many days off, but luckily this weekend he didn't have work! We went to Disneyland on Friday night (Mike's parent's got us annual passes!!!) and on Saturday it was my sister's birthday. We ate at a Mongolian BBQ...yum. Here is Evelyn before we went to the restaurant. Pictures courtesy of my phone camera.




My cousin got married on the 15th in San Diego so we went down to celebrate. Here's Evie and I at the Reception.



Ok, this girl has been teething for AT LEAST the last 5 weeks and there are still no teeth to show for it! I really want to round up all the pictures I have of her chewing on something and post them on here. There are tons, cuz all she ever does lately is chew. Poor baby. I hope the teeth come soon and relieve her (and me, because she's been waking up at least 4 times a night for those past 5 weeks)!

Here is a cute picture of her and Mike. Love that beanie!!



Well, that's pretty much the extent of my cell phone photo album (plus a few photos of a chair that are on my other blog).

Hope everyone is doing well!!

Etsy News

I sold my first painting on Etsy!! It feels great to know someone loves my work enough to want it in their home :)

Here is a photo:


I sold it on the same day I made a watercolor for a church service auction. Karma? Perhaps...

So Far...(and 6 months)

We love it here. First we noticed how lovely and green everything is, along with the contrasting blue skies. Of course I was quick to appreciate the variety of architecture just in the homes lining these Brea streets. Evelyn has been on multiple walks each day (partly because the place we're living is a 5 minute walk to my parent's house). Mike is flying this very moment. This place definitely feels like home.

We're sharing a house with another family and it is so fun! Their kids are 3, 18 months and 6 weeks. It's a wonderful house and we are especially excited about the garden full of kale and spinach :)

ALSO...

Today Evelyn is 6 months old! I think she knows it too, because just over the last couple days she's decided to start sitting up by herself and she can hold onto the edge of her crib and stand if we position her there. Today she started saying babababa in this cute little soft voice like a pixie. Her grandparents are loving having her here and she loves it too!

Face Montage

Here is a montage of Evelyn's silly facial expressions for you to enjoy.





Sorry this one is a little blurry!


And two more that I just love:


Haha! This last one cracks me up! Look at that string of drool!

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.
