I'm just going to come right out and say it how it is. Evelyn is a little flirt. I thought I had at least another ten years before I had to worry about this. Well, here's the story:

Last night we were babysitting a little boy named Josh. Also, Evelyn has a crush on Josh. We decided we would put a movie on for them so we could get some work done around the house. The work, however, didn't get done because we were too busy spying on our little girl, who I'm sure viewed the entire evening as a full-fledged date.

First, she thoughtfully got a blanket for them both to sit under on the couch. As the movie progressed, her eyes were on her date more than they were on the movie (I've got to say, Josh is a little better looking than Whinnie the Pooh- even for a two-year-old). She kept giving him these sly glances, and then scooting a little closer until she was actually laying on his shoulder. Josh didn't seem to mind either, as he very smoothly put his arm around Eva. And then we see this:



For those of you who missed it, that was a kiss. This repeated itself four or five times throughout the movie. She is two! It looks like she has been watching Rachel and me a little closer than I thought, and taking notes besides! Oh yes, I'm sure all of you readers think this little display of affection is cute (and it is), but as her dad I can't help but wonder if this is a foreshadowing of things to come in the not-so-distant future.

As for the rest of us, Rachel and I had a great date-night on Friday where I dominated her on the tennis court. And then on Saturday we went on a fantastic ten mile bike ride through Cuyahoga Valley where she put me to shame with her grueling pace despite the fact that she was pulling a bike trailer with two kids and all of our lunches. Yeah- I'm still feeling it today.

Well, I think that's all the writing I've got in me today. Enjoy the pictures of our week!

I love this picture of Evelyn. She is so stinkin' cute!
