Taking Steps

Happy New Year!! 2015 is off to a great start and Evan is taking his own steps this new year!
In December at 13 months old he took two big independent steps toward Grandma and at 14 months he is building up his confidence and has taken up to 5 steps in a row on his own several times!! He is standing without holding on to anything a lot more these days too. I think it won't be long before we are chasing those little legs around the house!!

It has been so exciting watching these first steps this past month. He has really grown and next week we take him into the doctor to see just how much he has grown!

I have been hearing more Momma and Dada words lately and he and are definitely communicating. He knows what I'm saying, especially when I tell him NO!!

He is opening and closing doors like a pro. He loves to play peek-a-boo using the door. We get lots of sweet giggles during that. He is exploring everything and we keep him entertained and out and about. He enjoys going to the Urban Chalkboard to play with other kids, Conner Prairie, Butler basketball games and Toddler Time at the library. His latest accomplishment is overcoming his fear of our big vacuum cleaner! Now he plays with it more than his toys!
He's growing up fast!!

Merry Christmas

This Christmas season has been so fun and special to us. We have been having a blast doing all the firsts with Evan. He was so brave and sat on Santa's lap twice and never cried!!

We are excited for Christmas morning as a family and to open gifts together. We got him a giant ball pit and a sit and spin as his big gifts. That should be endless indoor fun this winter!!

We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a blessed new year!!

Love,
The Masarius

Holiday time!!

Evan is 13 months now and there are so any fun things to do with him this time of year! We enjoyed our Thanksgiving in town with family and kicked off the Christmas season that Saturday with a parade in the Zionsville village, followed by meeting Santa and riding the train at the State Museum the following weekend. He was so cute meeting Santa for the first time. He held his hand out for his hand then went in for a yank on the old man's beard just to be sure he wasn't a fake!! He didn't cry at all and sat on his lap even!

Here are a few pictures of the festivities!! We hope you all are having as much fun this season as we are!
