Tonight we finally got together with the Alberty family for Uncle Greg’s birthday. His birthday was over a week ago, but their family had been sick, so we had to wait it out, until everyone was up for a party. Uncle Greg picked Lanna Thai, so that’s where we went. We when got there, Eva was sleeping, and she stayed asleep for half of the dinner. As soon as she woke up, she got passed around, so everyone could see her.
Eva, like every baby is very flexible. Her favorite thing to do lately is gnaw on her feet. Sometimes, she’ll just lay on her back for 10-15 straight on chew on her toes. It’s adorable.
Since the girls are out of school, Eva has really been enjoying spending time with them all day. She’s already grown really close to them in a very short time. She is so happy when she’s with them.
We went to dinner at Ricardo’s this evening. You just can’t beat their chile rellenos. Eva was a bit fussy, so we took turns walking her around the restaurant, mama, daddy, and even Gabriella. It didn’t matter who was holding her though, every single person who passed by was commenting on how beautiful Eva is. It was very nice, and I’m obviously biased, but she IS a beauty.
Gabriella and Olivia went to work with daddy today, and we were gone all day. So when we finally got to the house around 6PM, Eva was very happy to see her sisters. She really misses, now that she’s used to them being at home all day, over the summer break from school.
We’ve had a lot of crying lately. It’s most-likely because Eva is teething. The drool is non-stop, so that’s a good indicator also. Here’s a pic of dada, crying along with Eva.
Today was Olivia’s last soccer game of the season. After the game, all the girls (and their siblings too) got donuts from our favorite donut spot (OK Country!). Eva was there to see her sister’s team win, and so were Gammie and Nona and Papa, of course. Aunt Melanie, Kasey and Zac came too! We went to lunch after.
Tonight we took Eva to her first soccer match! The Roughnecks play at OneOK field where the Drillers play. It was finally nice weather for a game and Eva is out of quarantine, so she and Mama went to the game with Daddy, Gabriella and Olivia. Since we have season tickets with the Dickasons, she got to see Michelle, Chris and Connor too! She had a great time watching the first half of the game, but was hungry by the second half. Amazingly, the stadium has a secluded private family room for moms to breastfeed, with couches and chairs and AC! Michelle and Gabriella went with Mama to feed Eva. I think they may have been pretty comfortable, because they were gone for quite a long time! After the game, we stayed for fireworks. We weren’t sure how Eva was going to do, since they were loud and bright. She’d never seen fireworks before and her sisters didn’t like them until they were over 3-4 years old. She did great though. She sat completely still, not scared at all and looked up and watched the entire display!
We love bathtime pics. Eva is always so happy. She’s so used to getting pictures taken during her bath, that now she even hams it up for the camera!
The end of the school-year festivities continued for the big sisters today. It was Summerfest at Jenks West today. Since it was raining again today, the carnival was moved to the school gym, but they still had a live DJ, multiple bouncy houses, face painting, food and more. The girls had a good time and Eva got to spend some quality time with Gammie at home.
