Halloween and more

THis will probably be the last posting just with one little Gavin.......feeling really big and ready to have this baby! Her crib is up, name on the wall, clothes washed and bottles sanitized......lets get this show on the road!!

Gavin is really fun right now.................here are a few things about him

*right when we get in the car, he says "boom boom" and his favorite song is by the black eyed peas....boom boom boom......he bops his head and sings along

*favorite book now is......the foot book

*gavin LOVES to "dip" food......ranch is his favorite

*he loves daycare.......he sometimes cries when I get there to pick him up cause he wants to stay

*markers are very fun to color with.....even if his dad lets him get a permanent one and write on his body and all over our desk

*he uses the sign for help and please a lot now

*Barney is his favorite show......although he still really likes Handy Manny, Pooh and Mickey Mouse

*he tries to repeat almost everything we say to him and talk a lot.....mostly gavin language still though

*he loves to be the "messenger" and give stuff the other people when we ask

*his really hyper time of the day is at night after dinner....he usually laughs for no reason and does laps around our dining room table...kinda crazy

His favorite word that he uses all the time is "Yeah"......it's usually yelled and said very enthusiastic

36 weeks and READY to go!!!!!!!!!!!

Halloween

I was a prego school girl and jason was my professor............kinda funny that he ended up looking like our 6th grade teacher "Mr. Heski"

Jason-professor

he loves to sit in and stand on tubs and boxes

playing with Hunter

give the puppy a hug

watching tv with dad

We got all of our baby stuff down and out of the attic and gavin loves to sit in this swing now.....we might need to get another one. He's pretty rough with it

HALLOWEEN!

Little monkey

trick-or-treat

he sometimes points to his tummy when asked where the baby is.......

this looks like he's already ready to bite his sister but he is actually being sweet and giving my tummy a kiss

2009 pumpkin

we thought next year would be better to carve a pumpkin and since Gavin loves to paint.....he had lots of fun with this project

he decided to taste the paint.....yuck

Devil horns..........we think he might already be in his terrible two's ;)

Gavin and his BFF Evan......they're getting sooo big!

Hawaii and Gavin 16-17 months

Forgot to add these in by our Hawaii pics, they're just too good not to show.......this is what happens when I "quickly" put sunscreen on Jason with the spray sunscreen. I may have missed a few spots that are now burned :)

I did feel pretty bad....while laughing of course!

Gavin Gavin Gavin! He is getting so big! He is 17 months old now and learning lots of new things

-He thinks he is really funny. He will purposely "fall over" on his tummy and say "EH" while laughing and looking at you to see if you're laughing too. He walks around the house with a blanket on his head saying "whoooooo" and being a ghost trying to get you, all the while bumping into everything and laughing.

-He knows the actions to a couple of songs.......wheels on the bus, itsy bitsy spider and patty cake

-He has some separation anxiety whenever jason or I leave him or drop him off somewhere. It's pretty short lived though

-He tries everyday to say new words...... so cute

-He will touch or point to my tummy when we ask him where the baby is

-He still has quite the personality! When he knows he's not supposed to do something or you tell him to stop......yep, he just stares at you and keeps doing it until you get up to stop him and he proceeds to then run away.....stinker!

Riding rides at JJ Days

LOVES shoes! Nice heels!

Busy playing in the hamper

He thought he was really funny when he sat on the stairs with it on his head

This is one of his favorite things....blanket on his head, being a ghost and running around the house

HAWAII

SNORKELING AT HANAUMA BAY

this was soooo awesome! I don't have our underwater cameras developed yet....that'll have to go on my next post. There were lots of colorful fish and sea turtles. This was probably my favorite day!

EATING AT SHOREBIRD

This restuarant was right off the ocean and was delicious. Kindof wierd though, you order your food and it comes out raw and wrapped in tin foil...then you take it to this giant grill in the middle of the place and cook your own food. Jason cooked mine ;)
