Tales of Vince, Jen, Evin & Katelyn

We got Evin a new couch for the living room so that he’d have something to sit on. It’s a tiny little thing that folds out into a bed and he LOVES it. He played with it all night until he had to go to bed and the next morning it was the first thing … Read more

Talented (non)eating

We’ve always said that Evin is a good eater. He would eat anything. However, recently we’ve noticed that he’s not so keen on the crisper textures (or peas & corn). He’ll spit them right out. And don’t think about tricking him because he’ll find that one kernel of corn that you hid in his mashed … Read more

Well, everything was great for the race today. Well, at least for the 1.5 hours that we were there. Here are some pics. Check out the last photo. It demonstrates the amount of rain we’ve received over the last few days. No, that is not a man-made lake. It’s part of the gas station’s parking … Read more

Race weekend

Well, we’ve been waterlogged for almost 3 days. I know it doesn’t seem like a big deal to everyone, but us Arizonan’s aren’t prepared for so much rain. Our yards and streets flood, only 12% of us own umbrellas and you can forget about raincoats or galoshes. I don’t even know if they sell those … Read more

Clean up

I’m soooo glad Vince got the yard cleaned up the other day!! Now we have a leaf and weed free lawn. It looks wonderful. We’re hoping to have a “camping trip” in the back yard this weekend. I’m not sure how that’s going to work out with all this rain. We may have to postpone … Read more

Waffles and back floats

Today was a big day in the Walsh house. First of all, while Vince was getting Evin up and ready for breakfast this morning, Evin blurted out “Awful!” when his waffle popped out of the toaster. It was totally unprompted and super cool that he was in his room when he heard it pop. I … Read more

Today was a busy day for us. Evin had two birthday parties to attend. It’s tough being so popular at 16 months, ha ha. First, we joined Andrew and his family at Peter Piper for some games, pizza and cupcakes in celebration of his 4th birthday. Evin played skee-ball, shot some hoops, rode the carousel … Read more

From my point of view

Evin was especially interested in climbing on and off the couch this evening. Some day he’ll be able to do both all by himself, but until then it’s all about Mom helping him climb up after he climbs back down. He seems to enjoy doing it over and over and over and over and over … Read more

Here are some pictures of Evin from last night. He’s really getting into his Legos these days and can even get them stacked on top of each other (same size only, please). He’s getting there! He also played with his camera and singing dino. Excuse the dirty shirt. That’s Gma J’s fault. He he. (click … Read more

On the last day of our San Diego trip, we went to the Birch Aquarium in La Jolla. It’s a small aquarium but it has really great tanks and displays. I recommend it to anyone with kids because it’s a short visit with cool things to see (and kids under 3 are free). Anyway, Vince … Read more
