  2. Day 231. We’re crawling! You can see Eva’s look of determination as she focuses on moving around the living room. She gets everywhere she wants to go, but mainly by doing a worm movement. Hasn’t quite figured out she can use her legs to move faster. Day 231. We’re crawling! You can see Eva’s look of determination as she focuses on moving around the living room.

  3. Day 230. “Get me outta here, Daddy!” Seen here is Eva after waking up from her morning nap. Dad snapped fast to quickly catch this moment so the front of the photo is in better focus than Eva. In other Eva news, she’s moving all around the floor now by doing an awkward crawl. She uses her front arms to pull her body where she wants to go because she hasn’t quite figured out she can use her legs to power herself forward. It’s pretty awesome.

  4. Day 229. Eva helped host a cookout today, so her baby friends were invited. Above, Eva dons a Shakespeare’s Pizza onesie in honor of Momma’s alma mater, Mizzou, where Shakespeare’s is a favorite among students. Later, Eva peed on her outfit so she changed to hang out with her fellow wasian baby, Nina. Nina is three months older than Eva so you can see Nina sharing some wisdom here. Day 229.

  5. Day 228. To continue with the meat theme of this weekend, Eva joined in on Friend Joey’s pork-filled birthday celebration. The group shown here shared a roasted suckling pig with lots of beers and pickles and sauce. We took the photo after devouring the pig, but I included a “before” photo underneath. (Eva ate soft cooked apples, since she only has two teeth.) Day 228. To continue with the meat theme of this weekend, Eva joined in on Friend Joey’s pork-filled birthday celebration.

  6. Day 227. Baby Eva and ribs. Momma and Friend Joey took Eva to Costco today to prepare for a big cookout on Sunday. Joey is an excellent griller who has already helped out a lot in getting us ready. Eva helped pick out a few racks of St. Louis Style ribs, which promptly went into the fridge after Eva sized ‘em up.

  7. Day 226. Not sure how much food she actually got into her mouth. Eva’s spending lots of time with Momma, who is working from home while nanny Ruijiao is on vacation. Eva misses her friend but hanging out with Momma has been fun times. Day 226. Not sure how much food she actually got into her mouth.

  8. Day 225. Eva’s playing with a set of blocks we got at the Great Brookland Yard Sale, an annual event in our Washington, D.C. neighborhood. The family, including Opa, took advantage of the great weather Sunday to check out all the sales. Tuesday was Opa’s last day with us and Eva impressed him by trying to crawl! Day 225.

  9. Day 224. Eva gets her square jaw and giant head from her Opa (grandpa). He loves Eva lots, so he came to stay with us for a few days before heading back to The Netherlands, where he lives with Oma. Besides going out to eat together, Eva’s also joining Opa outside to see how he’s helping liven up the front yard.  Day 224. Eva gets her square jaw and giant head from her Opa (grandpa).

  10. Day 223. Eva loves her beagle dog, Saidee. She just wants to pet and snuggle with Saidee all the time, but as followers of this Tumblr know well, Saidee merely tolerates Eva enough not to get grouchy with her. Day 223.
