BABYS FIRST CHRISTMAS!

What a wonderful day! We had more of everything than any one family could possibly need for Christmas. God bless everyone and thank you all so very much for the cards, presents, and love we received. Our traditional turkey dinner, mostly prepared by Stephanie, a little by me, and a little by Burrs BBQ (think fried fowl), was delectable. The fact that James decided to sleep all through our meal was a mini Christmas miracle. I hope everyones day was as blessed as ours was!

Random Pre-Christmas Pictures

Sorry for the slow updates but there is SO much going on and so little time to do this type of thing. Anyway. Here are some new assorted photos taken before Christmas. First one is one of four grandpas (LAKKKEEEEHIIISSSSSOUSE ROSS) holding little JD with love. Second one is little JD cracking himself up on his changing station. Oddly enough this is his favorite place in the world right now (except of course being next to his momma). Third one is JD experiencing his first taste of 32 degree temperatures this winter. Forth, its good to be a gangster!

The Cameras Keep A' Clicking

Not much to updated on really just wanted to post some new pictures!

finally! more baby pictures

I know, i know, its been too long. Sorry about that! Well, with all the excitement, all the patio work, all the lake house craziness, all the visitors. Anyway thats my excuse. Here are some more recent pictures of James. He is up around 10 and a half pounds now and keeps growing by ounces every day. His nickname right now is "lug nut" because of his size and density. Stephanie and I really appreciate all of the guests that have been visiting and care they have been providing all of us!

What was I THINKING?

For some strange reason I decided that right after bringing a new baby into our house would be the perfect time to try and install a 24 foot by 14 foot paver patio. Big mistake. The first phase of this project involves removing 12-10 inches of dirt and rock so that the foundation can be made ready. My good friend Jason Peppin is helping me move dirt the old fashioned way and Lucy is acting like a supervisor or goat depending on how you look at it... more to come on this one! This project should last a long long long time.

pictures, pictures, pictures - thats all i have time for right now!

YEAH! JAMES IS FINALLY HERE!

James David Evans was born this morning, 5:33am November 1st 2007 @ 7 pounds 9 ounces and 21.5 inches long. Stephanie did an unbelievable job and achieved her goal of a completely natural child birth. I love my family so much! Here are the first few pictures...
