2nd grade program

Here is Evan performing in the 2nd grade program "Songs that tell a story."

Ants on a log

Evan has been asking to make "Ants on a log" for awhile. And he actually ate it!

"I have my rights"

(Names have been changed to protect the innocent.)

Me: "So Meagan, I hear that Billy and Suzie are boyfriend/girlfriend."

Meagan: "Who told you that?" (not a denial, so it must be true)

Me: "I have my sources. What about you? Is there anybody in class that you like?"

Meagan: (stiffling a grin while walking away) "I have my rights."

Best thing about GFCF

Evan has been mainly Gluten Free since Halloween. Everyone asks if we've seen a change. We have! The two biggest things are that we never use Melatonin to help him go to bed anymore. Secondly, he is willingly trying new foods.

Our boy who used to eat only crackers, chicken, fries, and fruit has now tried shrimp, salmon, deli ham, deli turkey, corn, carrots, and rice. And that's only since Jan 1st!

A big thanks goes to Amy Byrne at Aspire for her help with this feeding goal.

Sleepover at Cassidy's

We had a family (minus Chris) sleepover at the Eden's house. It was Evan's first sleepover, and he did great! He balked about 8p and wanted to go home, but stuck it out and fell asleep on the couch. Mommy slept on the opposite couch so that he would not wake up and be scared. And he even slept in! What a great step for our Evan!

Salmon!

Evan ate salmon 2 nights ago! And he tried corn, but didn't like it. Weird kid.

Major kudos

After months of searching every room in the house, and both cars....Meagan found Evan's nintendo DS! We were thisclose to buying a new one on Friday, and Meagan found it in Daddy's car on Friday night. After doing a major happy dance in the partking lot of Denny's, Meagan claimed her $20 reward from Mom and Dad.
