Stuff we've been doing

I got dressy for bridesmaid life at Katelynn's BEAUTIFUL wedding

Gavin is all about riding bikes - he has one I let him ride in the house - and several for outside - spoiled child!

He's quite a little athlete - not a huge huge climber - but he likes being physical

So Much

So much seems to happen so fast. Gavin says things like "Red Stop, Green Go" and "Yes Way, No Way".. He seems to be getting SO smart. I am impressed all the time at the stuff he remembers. I tell him the grocery list - and he remembers at least a bunch of it. I got to be part of Katelynn's wedding - my dear sweet Katelynn - she is amazing. Katelynn, thank you for being such an amazing friend and for loving me when I'm completely retarded and do stupid things without thinking!

Fishy Fishy

In Tahoe - and every chance we get all the time - we like to swim - Gavin's quite the little fish - sometimes he likes to hitch a ride....

He likes to Fly and SPLASH

He was getting really good and putting his feet up high in the air

And kickin! What a kicker!

And of course jumping and splashing like a whale - SHAMU SHAMU!!!!

The Bachelorette!

My Dear Dear Friend Katelynn.... is getting married on Saturday!!! We had a bachelorette party for her this past Saturday which included brunch, pictures, ceramics, burritos, cake, music, presents, dancing, and cute matching shirts. This is her sister Bekah (the great organizer!), Katelynn, and myself... "Kate's Bachelorette Party in Progress..."

Family Visits

On the Trip down to Tahoe we got to see the great grandparents in Redding. They are wonderful, positive, encouraging individuals. While at Tahoe we got to spend a few days with Grand Aunt Laurie and Great Grandma Frazier- two of our most favorite most fun and enjoyable individuals.

in Tahoe

While at Tahoe we hiked to Algora Lakes. I carried Gavin most of the way in my Aunt's fabulous pack. It was hot. Beautiful - but HOT


Camping in June

When Gavin and I went camping - he learned a little about shadows - he made me laugh so hard I almost fell over! He's chasing my shadow - not me!


Don't you love it? First thing in the morning- pajamas, and ready to play baseball! What an outfit :)

My Baseball Lovin Boy!






Look at that form! :) He loves baseball - loves to Hit the Ball! and we play catch - but he's not super great and holding the glove....

We're Back

From a Week Long VACATION! To Lake Tahoe. We were able to see some of Gavin's Great Grandparents, canoe around Lake Tahoe, swim in a warm pool, and RELAX! It was really nice to get away for that long. We drove in a van with 5 adults and a toddler - it was a long drive - both directions! But we made it and had a great time. Here's a picture of Gavin helping me carry water while camping. He's very much into "me do" and "help you, mommy". He was glad to go back to daycare with his nice friends - and glad to see all of his toys. I'll post lots of vacation pictures after I get my camera back from grandma's house!
