Mother and baby both hot and blotchy – hence no photos. Fortunately Evan isn’t due to enter the beautiful bouncing baby competition for another few weeks.

The votes have been counted and verified and Evan’s name should have been…

Thanks to Tom for voting twice.

It’s tiring being a baby.

With thanks to NanJan for the trendy dungarees, to RuthandStephen for the little gap top and to SallyAnne for his huge scary spider!

Just getting better and better by the day.

Attempted fancy embedded video for this last week. It broke the internet. If you want to use 0.1124% of your monthly bandwidth* on looking up Ruth’s nose, please do so here.

Drinking milk, looking cute, drinking milk.

Last Friday Evan weighed 5.45kg – nearly a kg more than his birthweight. And he achieved this great feat using only milk – amazing.
As well as growing he’s been
-seducing his worldwide audience wih cuteness
-staring intently at peoples faces and wondering why they’re talking to him in funny high pitched voices and cooing
-wrapping his father round his little finger
-crying but being immediately comforted by the suggestion of milk
-wanting to go out and party at 4am -wide awake time!
-meeting his cousins Tess, Tom, Hazel and Maddy and feeling very small in comparison
Busy life, being a baby.

After an overwhelming victory for Outy, Evan will be seeing the paediatric naval surgeon in the next few weeks.

Matt and Vicky and Zoe back from France! Matt hasn’t eaten for three years!

Evan goes to Wales! Cries! Comes home!

Evan goes to the zoo! Becomes King of the Marmosets! Abdicates! Comes home!

Evan goes to Dursley! Takes five Whitton child photo op! Comes home!

From internet updating, but all manner of crazy stuff happening to Little Evan…

• Went to Borehamwood and met a real live great-grandmother.
• Went to Starbucks a couple of times. Maybe three.
• Had all manner of unsavouries in his Jungle Gym.
• Had some milk, watched the cricket.

Only 6 days until he moves to Devon.

Day 17, in which Evan meets Aunty Ruth* and learns how to gamble.
