Evelyn, Week by Week

Evelyn is 40 weeks old! She is a mover and a shaker and as a result suffers from the bonks, scraps and bruises typical to this age. This is especially true when she pulls to a stand and then tips over or follows her big brother too closely when he's not paying attention.

She likes to crawl up to windows and lick them and likes to crawl up to mirrors and give herself french kisses.

She loves to read books before bed. Her favorites are those that are "touch and feel" or pop up books and she loves to turn the pages. She spends lots of time on pages of books that have photos of babies on them and likes to talk to them.
