Happy late Easter!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while - things have been pretty busy! Gavin is growing like crazy and is such a smarty pants! He has actually started exploring his defiant side - doesn't make Mommy or Daddy too happy! He is hard to discipline because he's so stinkin' cute but I do my best!

Steven bought a motorcycle a couple of weeks ago. I have to say it's pretty sweet and I know it makes him happy! I pray that he stays safe!

Easter was fun this year.. Gavin enjoyed 4 egg hunts - one at his school, one at Uncle Wayne and Aunt Donna's, another at my parent's house and then a fourth at our house. He had a blast with all of them. The Easter bunny left him a fun basket full of goodies, he was just so excited to see all his fun toys but really was most concerned about the candy!


I have sort of lost track of the photos I have taken this month - I've been snapping away with my new camera so enjoys these fun shots!






Love & blessings,

photos galore - new camera =)

It's been almost a month since the last post - sorry for the delay! I got a new camera a few weeks ago - a digital SLR - and I am in love!! Gavin has been taking a few steps back with the potty - actually he hasn't gone on the potty for almost 3 weeks. He was doing so well and then all of a sudden he did not want to go on the potty anymore.. oh well, we don't want to force it! He has been talking up a storm lately, it's so incredible to have conversations with him now! Hockey has become his new favorite thing - whether it's on tv or he's playing it in the basement. Uncle DD bought him a hocket net with two sticks and a ball and he is in love with it!! The past few weeks have been super fun and photo-filled!!

These are some of the first photos I took with my new Nikon - it's so hard to get a 2 1/2 year old to smile for the camera!
We got to go watch Uncle DD play hockey - Gavin loved watching the game and hanging out with his MeeMaw! The other photo is Gavin with his Uncle DD!

This is a random shot of Gav laying on the floor in the kitchen.. he loves to lay on the floor and wiggle around!All my photo albums for Gav - over 3,000 photos printed - double that plus more equals all the photos that I have taken of him!
Gav excited to head outside for some play time!
Here are some photos of Gavin playing hockey - he really is a good hockey player =)
Christmas in April!
Gavin singing 5 Little Monkeys while strolling down the stairs.. such a cutie!!
Gav and I went to a baby shower on Saturday - he really didn't spend a whole lot of time with mommy, he was too busy hanging with the boys and all the other ladies.. this is a picture of Gav with Uncle Bryan and Uncle DD and one of him enjoying the yummy cake!!
Our beautiful tree that only blooms for about one week a year.. so pretty!We celebrated my nephew's 9th birthday on Sunday.. it's hard to believe he's already 9. Gav loves playing at Grammie and PopPop's house and spending time with Shayna and Lucas. It was such a beautiful day out so when we got home we decided to head back outside and have fun with bubbles. Both Gavin and our dog Lucy were having a blast!!
