Ruffie


After a failed attempt at taking Easter pictures, I just wanted to document Evan with one of his current obsessions. At Christmas, Grandma Jennie gave him this dog (I believe it's called 'Sparky'). It yips, 'walks', sits and does a back flip. Cool huh?! I definitely thought so... not so much for Evan (or Cora Grace). He would screeeeeam for us to turn it off, run from the room it was in and hide behind a wall or couch. Finally about a month ago? he started getting curious after his mean mom occasionally forced it on him. He loves it now! One Friday for daycare, Evan's class was asked to bring something that started with "R". I'm sure they meant for you to bring a pet "R"ock or a "R"ainbow but I decided then and there that the dogs name was now "Ruffie" so Evan could go share him and the name has stuck ever since. lol :). I love being sneaky.


Now Evan will sleep with Ruffy, plays with him every day (till he gets in trouble) and wants him in the car and outside with him. So, thank you GJ, you're the best.

I thought I commented on this before but I guess it never went through! this is THE SWEETEST! Serif is totally getting in to his animals now. he's beginning to crowd himself out of his bed. He's so sweet with them and really getting in to imaginary play. I love seeing that! He would do flips for a dog like Ruffie! Heart Evan.
