Napping In Daddy’s Lap
We picked up Chili’s To Go for dinner tonight and watched a little TV while eating. Eva napped peacefully in daddy’s lap while we ate.

Mama, Gabriella, Olivia and Daddy took Eva for a walk around the neighborhood this evening. We headed to the park for a little swinging first. It has still been raining on and off, the last few days and there was a big rainbow in the sky. You can see it in the picture of her, if you look close!
Eva’s loves to ride up on top of Daddy’s shoulders. It’s her new favorite thing. The only bad thing is, as soon as she gets up there, she always grabs a huge handful of hair and starts trying to eat it!
We went to Senor Tequila for dinner tonight and Eva stayed awake in her car set the entire meal. She never cried. She just sat at the end of the table and watched us eat and watched the people around us. It was amazing.
Eva has always loved her baths. She is always happy in the warm water and getting the arm and leg massages from Mama. Lately she’s been doing what we call the back-breaker in the bath, though. The back-breaker is when she bucks up and arches her back super-high to indicate that she’s not where she wants to be. The funny thing is, she usually starts fussing or crying while doing it out of the bath. In the bath, she’s been keeping a happy face, but just arching the back and trying to slide around in the tub.
Today was a great day for Olivia’s soccer game, even though it was at 8:00AM! With all the rainy weather we’ve been having lately, it was nice to have clear warm morning for the game. After the game, we went to an early lunch at Red Robin with Noni, Papa and Gammie. We brought in Eva’s stroller, but she didn’t last long in there, as everyone’s priority was holding her, over eating lunch!
Today, Gabriella wanted to play with Eva, so mama said that was fine. Gabriella scooped her up and off she went. A little while later, we went in to check on them, since we hadn’t hear any crying or even a single peep. Gabriella had Eva laying content on her bed. She had Eva surround by stuffed animals and had her iPad propped up with cartoons playing. What a super-cool big sister!
It’s possible that one of Eva’s favorite places to be is her changing table. She still rarely ever cries when she’s there and usually has a smile on her face. Sometimes, she’ll just look directly at the wall and smile, or look at the pictures and frames nearby. Not sure what it is about it, but you can’t deny the smiles.
Eva gets a lot of love. She is always in her mama’s arms, occasionally in her daddy’s arms and if not there, she’s being held by sisters, Gabriella or Olivia or one of her grandparents is over doing the holding. So it’s a rarity that she’s in her swing. Daddy caught her napping in the swing today though.
Eva could not look any more like a sweet little angel, than in this picture. There is no Photoshop work here, just an accidentally over-exposed picture that looks perfect.
