Pipestone Trip

On the stairs just being silly.

Dad and Gavin went to Pipestone together. Mommy had to stay home and work. While they were there, Gavin got to vist Great Grandma Sis. He was exploring and getting into everything he could. We are proud to report, nothing was broken on this trip. Whew!



Giving Great Grandma Sis a lovable smile.


Grandma Colleen helping Gavin explore pudding flavors!

Sitting at my new picnic table w/umbrella.

While at Grandma Colleen's house she watched Gavin which allowed daddy to help around the house. Gavin was loving the farm, chasing the kitty cats and exploring all around.


Yes, I WILL have some more pudding!

He really enjoyed Grandma spoiling him with some pudding; Yummy! He sure liked butterscotch!

Great Grandma showing G some pictures.

Snuggling with Austin and Adrianna on Saturday morning.

Gavin was a busy boy. Adrianna, Austin, Kaden, and Kylie came to visit along with their moms and dads. Although G stayed at daycare Friday, everyone else went to Valley Fair.
A few other accomplishments where made this week. Crawling on top of things such as the coffee table and the little tikes picnic table are just two of the new ones as well as the following pictures below.......on top of the John Deere Little Buck ATV.

A future .................???

Weekend with Grandma

Grandma B came to stay with Gavin while Mom and Dad went on their Annual Cousin's Camping weekend. While we forgot to get any pictures, Gavin certainly didn't end the weekend without a story to tell! Grandma let Gavin run around naked after his bath on Saturday morning while she was looking for lotion for him...long story short she found him after he had pee'd and poo'd on the floor, and was squishing his toes in the poo! GROSS! Glad he pulled that one on her, not me! Overall they had a great weekend together (and so did we)...not sure what we would do without our Grandma B!

Here's what we've been up to the past 2 weeks...

Playing in the pool

Checking out a new park

Sharing a dip cone

We spent the 4th of July at our neighborhood picnic! Gavin fell asleep in Grandma Colleen's arms watching the fireworks...I think he considered it the best seat in the house!

We helped Finley celebrate his 1st Birthday...

...and Finley was nice enough to let Gavin try out his new toys!

We also had to visit the doctor for Gavin's 18 month check up. The doc thought he was healthy at 23 pounds, 6 ounces and 31 inches!

Grandpa came and helped build a tower of blocks

Dad took G and Mommy on a date to Mancini's for steak...

...they thought G was so cute they gave us a free cake!

We have discovered a new love for corn on the cob!
Needless to say summertime keeps us VERY BUSY! We continue to enjoy our days with our special boy.
