Turning Two

3.15.2009
Today little Eva turns two years old. She came on the Ides of March, the English Lit major in me was worried, but she could not be any sweeter. A delivery on max pitossin with no epidural...I won't be doing that again if I can help it. Here she is on her actual birth day.


She was such a calm and easy baby. Never fussing, always happy...even when her horrible mother rammed her in a large tea-cup to take her 5 month photo.

Or when I rammed her into a home-sewn Elvis costume on her first Halloween so she could be EVA Las Vegas.


As she grew her happy and gentle temperament stayed. She was a good sleeper, a good eater, a good....everything!


She has the sweetest disposition. Whenever Ella gets sent to Time Out, Eva goes and stands by her and holds her hand so she's not lonely. She cares deeply for other's feelings and is always ready for a fun time or to share a happy moment.




And here she is today as she headed to church. She loves playing with her sister, loves babies and being a "Mommy". She still loves Cinderella, but has added a passion for the Imagination Movers to the mix. And she still loves food. The only food she has ever turned down is Lima Beans....and really, can you blame her?


Her little gentle soul has been a calming force in our life and reminded our entire family to be a little more gentle, kind and loving to each other.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SWEET LITTLE FIFI!

Evangeline is absolutely the cutest, sweetest looking baby in the world. Period. It's so nice to hear that she has the personality to match. Happy Birthday, little one.

p.s. Does anyone else think that the pigtails on top of the head picture looks like a real life 'Pebbles Flintstone'. Cute...

What a wonderfully endearing entry to your precious daughter on her second birthday. She was beautiful at birth and has obviously remained tht way!
I look forward to each and every one of your entries, Emilie!
