I made the salad to get some greens into Mike. Evan passed out early, so we broke out the wine.

We spent the day on Saturday taking the ferry from Cape May to Rehoboth, DE. It was windy, rainy and cold, but cleared up after the QVC outlet (my mom's mothers day pick). We were gone from 9:30 am until 10:30 pm with Evan only taking a half hour nap in the car in the morning and falling asleep on the ferry home. He was awesome the whole day. The only crying was when he woke up around 10pm in the van while we picked up a late night dinner to bring home. What a little trooper! But first my M. Day present from my sister.
I did pick out something cute, that didn't involve butt products, but it was at the Atlantic City outlets the next day. Here are some ferry pics.
Here's a dressed up doggy at the terminal.
Captain Evan and his first mate.
Evan is surrounded by ladies, as usual.
Evan gets some mommy time.
And some daddy time too.
Wait a minute! That's not Evan's mommy!
My dad & Mike stopped for a drink at Hooters in Rehoboth while my sister, mom and I hung out playing "Memory" in a coffee shop down the street. I beat my sister by 2 matches! hehehe. Needless to say we were all covered in Hooters stickers by the end of the day. Evan alone had one on each knee and one on his heinie.
The ferry ride home was beautiful. Brittany and Evan were asleep in the van on the bottom deck. awww!
That's me!
And here's the best part yet!! Brittany and I found lots o' great stuff at the QVC outlet. One of the best things was located in the doll section. It was something called "Fluffy" that Brittany almost bought for Mike for fathers day. But then lo and behold a dress rack FILLED with these lovely numbers. Believe it or not, they were only $6 each so my sister bought 3 of them started calling friends to recruit them so they could go as "The Duggars" on Halloween. Brittany is going as the mother Duggar. I think her friends were a bit disappointed and wanted to be something a little more sexy, but I think Brittany convinced them. Here we are modeling the lovely outfits.
It may look like 3 pieces, but guess what! It's only 2! The shirt and skirt are attached and beautiful denim vest was just an extra bonus on top. Yes. Each complete outfit cost ONLY $6!!! Brittany then practiced the hairdo (not shown).
I didn't superimpose Brittany's head on someone else's body. It just looks that way.
I will end on a serious note. I am so lucky to be a mommy to Evan. He's definitely the coolest little guy in the whole world. Although I'm sure that someday he will look at these last 3 photos and wish he had a different mom. I'm also so lucky to have my Mike. I love you guys!

Mike's home from Maine
And look what he brought us! I named them Pinchy and Moonbounce. They were alive when he brought them home. It kinda made me sad, but they were oh-so-tasty.
I made the salad to get some greens into Mike. Evan passed out early, so we broke out the wine.

Weekend in VA
Happy Birthday, Jack! We had so much fun at your party extravaganza! Here are some highlights:
We stayed at Mima & PopPop's. Here's Evan and Mima in the morning... Evan is shoving a banana in his mouth.
Evan's asking PopPop to come out and play.
The 3 generations of Cronin men play in the backyard (the landscaping is beautiful btw)
And now the party! The theme this year was farm/Jack. I didn't think Kelly could beat last year, but guess what! I wish we had more shots of the decorations, but I was busy stuffing my face.
Evan by far loved the moonbounce and the alpacas best.
Jack's airborne!
Here are the cousins after a bear hug.
Oh yes - and the alpacas! These were our present to Jack.
And the cake! It looks professionally decorated, but Kelly did it!
I wanted to get some Aunt Susan, Uncle Paul, Granny & Gramps Gifford shots at the end of the night, but Evan went into super-weenie mode. We then headed out at 8:30 to drive back to PA.
Back to Philadelphia! Sorry Ziggy, we can't take the moonbounce with us.
Mike left for Maine the next morning, but Evan went to NJ for what else, but another party! It was Jeff's birthday. Here's Evan trying to escape from Jeff's arms. He was like static cling to my side the whole day (Evan, not Jeff).
Sarah jams out to Danzig. hehehe
Someday we will spend a weekend at home and be totally bored.

My 2nd Mothers Day (not including the one when Evan was inutero)

Cool New Dance Move
We like to call this the "kicky foot". It's Evan's latest dance move, adding to the knee bounce. I can't believe how many times I say the word "dance" in this video.
dance. Dance. DANCE!!!
dance. Dance. DANCE!!!
Ziggy Updates
I'm sorry, my dear sister. I haven't updated this in a long time. I hope this makes up for all of those lonely Evanless days. He's been practicing his stinker face and pushing out some more teeth for when he sees you this weekend.
Awww. Beautiful face. This is Evan at the crabcake place is Somers Point.
Evan in his room. Just kidding! It's only his fort. He hunkers down and when you say "where's Evan?" he pops up like a jack-in-the-box.
Here he is playing with grandmom outside. Afterward we had to change his wet clothes (he got into the bird bath) and scrub his hands and feet. We had taken off his shoes and let him squish his little feet in the dirt. He walks like a champ now (thank God!!!)
Evan now has 7 full teeth and four more that have just broken through the gums. Needless to say he's drooling like crazy and has had a lousy appetite. He does like ice cream now, which is good I guess. He's been quite the social butterfly lately and we made lots of friends at our Mommy & Me class which unfortunately ended for the summer on Tuesday. I was so mad because we had a picnic and group picture during the last class and I forgot to put the battery back in the camera. So I had the camera in it's case at class, with the battery charging at home. The cool thing is that we see our friends at the playground all the time. Evan has even been going backwards down the one slide by himself. Here's the list of stuff he says now:
There it is!
This
That
Nah (no)
Up
Hot
Water
Banana
Waffle (or at least something that sounds like waffle when he's eating it)
Booboo
Mama
Dada
PopPop
Delicious
Woof
Meow
Moo
Hiss
Eee Eee (monkey sounds)
Uh-oh! (he says this constantly, ALWAYS after throwing something. Then he gives stinker face to me and shakes his head no (mirroring what I do when he throws stuff)
When you ask him who his cousin is, he says "at" which I guess is his version of "jack".
He knows his eyes, ears, head, nose, mouth, teeth, feet and hands and points to them when you ask, but sometimes confuses ears and eyes. He LOVES sticking his pointy little fingernail in your belly button. He pushes around his toy cars and says rrrrrrrrrr! as he's doing it.
Look at the beautiful lips. People pay big bucks for a mouth like that.
The doctor at his 15 month baby well visit says he's tall and thin and is in the 91st percentile for height and only in the 1st percentile for weight. This scared me, but the doctor wasn't too concerned. Needless to say, I'm constantly shoving food at him to get his weight up. She also said he's a beautiful baby, which we all know.
