First Full Week

one of our playful moments

Evan Loves to take photos with my phone, he will sit and take photos of himself for 10 minutes at a time!

Evan was so hyper when he opened up a new gift from Alissa, Thomas the Train play tent

He loves to push or pull anything, He pulled his wagon down the street and up the driveway.
Wagon ride with Grandma, cousins Ryan, Rachel, and Nathan

Much needed nap, even the dogs needed a nap

Gift from 'Uncle Jim'

First trip to the pool, It doesn't look like it but he was the life of the party!
This is what happens when he refuses to nap, he sleeps at the dinner table

Our First Weekend

We may have been sleep deprived but that wasn't going to stop us from enjoying the beautiful weather! We headed to the park for some playtime with cousins Nathan and Rachel with grandma and grandpa Freudenburg.



It took a little while before Evan settled on an activity but it was the sandbox that caught his eye, we played with dump trucks, shovels, and sand pails.  He even explored the play sets and sat on my lap for the slides.  It got a bit warm and we needed to go home and put some shorts on! (all of us!)
We were warned that Evan got car sick, but we had hoped that our super cautious driving in the small town of Rochester would be different than the super busy streets of Seoul - not so.  Those four hard boiled egg whites did not look great in our new car seat!  The kiddo loves hard boiled egg whites!

After a quick bath, Evan was ready to play with his cousins and his favorite toy the lawn mower!

Nights are still restless, but we are hopeful with time and commitment Evan will rest more at night and enjoy some sleep.  We are sleeping on a floor mattress with him to try to make it as much like what he is used to but I know it will take time for him to become comfortable. During the daytime hours we are rewarded with smiles, laughs, and hugs.  We have to rely on those beautiful moments to get us through the more difficult nighttime hours.
