Evelyn June Presents...

In the fine tradition of Alfred Hitchcock (where he always made one brief and passing appearance in everyone of his sketches), Evie June is going to introduce you to her very own bedroom. Your job is two-fold: first you are to ooh and aah over how dang cute her room is and secondly, if you're keenly perceptive, find the baby.


The reading-feeding-burping-rocking corner of the room.


Oh the mountain of Pampers she's leveled on this changing table.


Yo, yo, her crib where she kicks it with her blankies.


No drawers = no mystery. Do you think she's got enough pink outfits?


And finally, her dirty clothes basket. We recently realized the reason that she's still so small is that we've been washing and drying her clothes with her IN them. That dryer really shrinks her up. Just kidding. Really.

She's already taking after her old man (that'd be me) by outfitting her room with thrift store goods. A fresh layer of paint made the crib, changing table, rocker, stool, bookshelf and end table look brand new. Her Meemee (my mom) hand made the curtains, reupholstered the cushions and pillows on the rocker, and sewed liners for all of her baskets. Jen likes to refer to the shabby-chic room as "Princess-On-A-Dime." It's good that Evie June is already conscientious about saving money for things that truly matter . . .


like a really sweet hat.

I spy a sweet baby girl in every photo! The room looks great ~ nice job to all participating hands. As far as the pink ~ Aunt M sent some contrast ~ I'll look forward to seeing a posted picture in a blue or red outfit in the future :)

Sure wish the miles weren't so many in between ~ we love and miss you all like crazy. Hug each other and give Eve a kiss from Aunt M.

Love you big,
Monica

Oh, my sweet little bundle of love, how I desperately miss you already. Daddy and Mommy will give you all the hugs and kisses that MeeMee left there in Washington for you.

I know that you all (Jim & Jen) will continue to enjoy every single second with Evie June. She is, by far, the cutest baby girl that I know.

Love, hugs and kisses to you all. Keep the blog updates coming. Daily would be nice....

We love you and miss you like crazy!!!!!!!!!
