Day 9 - Evian, Evie, Little Nut

DAY 8 –  Evian, Evie, Little Nut

The inevitable happened, a nickname popped out of one of our mouths, and it stuck.  Our “Little Nut” has beautiful, dark almond eyes, the smoothest, dark skin, and just enough puff in her hair to wear a little clip.  Her eyes, though very contemplative most of the time, have a gentle trusting look.  Her skin seems darkest around her feet, lightest around her neck, and she has a small Asian birthmark at the very bottom of her back called a Mongolian spot, which will fade over time.

Everything about her is delicate, her expressions are sweet and sometimes much bigger than seem possible from her little face.  Her coos, bubbles, silent laughs, throat giggles, and ooohs & aaahs…even her different cries…are becoming very familiar.   We love our Little Nut, and can’t wait for her to be with her big sisters, Little Peach and Little Em!

What a great picture! Her whole face is a smile and it looks like everything but her head is buried in the bed! Times like that make the harder stuff all worth it. :)

What a giant smile! Your girls are going to love looking at all of these pictures of Evie! The first thing that popped in my mind when I read that you are calling her Little Nut is the Guess How much I love you book. The rabbit in the book is called "Little Nutbrown Hare". What a cute nickname!
