While we were away...

We've been so busy keeping up with the boys that we haven't posted any pictures for a long while, so here's what they've been up to...

Evan with Uncle Bryan

The boys with Aunt Jenny and Uncle Lee



















We had some warm weather in January so Drew got to enjoy the playground...

And Evan enjoyed his first ride in a swing.

But we did get a little snow one morning. We couldn't enjoy it long because it melted by noon.

Halloween!

Evan and Drew each dressed up twice for Halloween.

Evan dressed in Halloween colors:

Drew was a football player at daycare:



















And a sumo wrestler for trick or treating. With friends Kate (the pony) and Finn (Buzz Lightyear).

Catching up with Evan

We realize we've been lax in providing updates on Baby Evan. Well, he's doing great. Follow his growth over the last few months...

Twins of a different age?

Beth, Bob and many others have noticed how much Evan looks like Drew when he was an infant. They could be twins if they weren't born 3 years apart!

See for yourself. Here are pictures of Drew and Evan at 3 days old. Drew's picture is on top, then Evan's.
