Everybody love Evelyn!

 Evelyn is smiling a lot now-and is much easier to catch on camera now!

 It's such a blessing to have a child who unreservedly smiles at a word from you!  (I'll try keep those precious smiles in mind when she's grumpier later in life. ;)

 She has discovered her hands a few weeks ago too-and she can spend up to half an hour chatting to her fists-and sometimes even figures out how to get them to her mouth so she can suck on them!

 Occasionally I remember to give her tummy time.  Like all my kids, she's not a big fan of it.

 I like to take her around the house to do chores-that way I know she's safe from her siblings.

(My Mom put me in the laundry basket!  I can't believe it!  She better pick me up when I show her my cute bottom lip pout!)

 Jennifer likes to give her special bunny to Evelyn.  For a few minutes, anyways.s

 All the kids love to chat with Evelyn and have her coo and smile at them.  So it isn't often that she is alone with just her hands for company.

 I still swaddle Evelyn at nights-and for the hot and muggy nights we've had, I've just swaddled her in a receiving blanket, but it couldn't do her arms and legs both-so I just did her arms. 

Very cute little legs poking out!

Evelyn is such a cheerful sweet girl!  She is only fussy for obvious reasons, and with her needs addressed, is set at ease very easily!  No, she does not sleep through the nights yet-only occasionally.  But since 4 out of 5 on my kids waited 'til 6 months to do it, my expectations are really really low!  (And that helps me out-no need to be disappointed at getting out 1, 2 or even 3 times-'cause I was counting on it anyways. ;)
