So the time has come to buy safety gates. Gavin is just getting to fast and sneaky! We went and bought a combo pack at Babies R Us and had to put one in front of the stairs and by the bathroom to keep him out of the toilet.

New Toy

Grandma Helen and Grandpa Fred wanted to get Gavin a new riding toy since the weather is getting nice. So we went to Toys R Us and found this great little bike. It transitions from this cute little push bike with a sun shade to a tricycle. So no more bending down, killing our legs and back to push him around. And what's better than that???? Olivia loves to take him out and push him around. It is so dang nice to have big helper .

Trying it out for the first time.

Little Dare Devil

Gavin is so different than Olivia. He isn't scared of anything....well except the big dog that runs around our neighborhood! I walked out of the bathroom for two seconds the other day and this is what I come back to. He was so proud of himself. I guess the days of cleaning the room, running out for a second while he plays in the bath are over.

St. Patty's Day

Knot head

Daycare called me today at work....for the second time to inform me that Gavin had fallen and had one heck of a knot & bruise on his head. They didn't want me to freak out when I saw him. I kind of laughed and said all the yellow was finally starting to fade...oh well. Needless to say it looks pretty bad and now it looks like he is going to also have a black eye. OH and he has pictures tomorrow! But on a brighter note the weather was nice today and he was able to play outside for a little while.

The joy of cooking

I was making cupcakes yesterday and of course Gavin wanted to be right there helping. So I gave him a plastic bowl and a spoon and he had a great time playing.....for a few minutes.

Standing Tall

Gavin is not only crawling and pulling up but he is now standing without really holding on to anything. For being 7 1/2 months old, he sure is a busy little guy.

Shabby Chic

I started redoing Olivia's room recently and it is finally starting to come together. I down sized her queen size bed to a full, bought a really cute dresser off of KSL and switched things around some. We need to add a few more things but we really like it!

just plain ROTTEN :-(

So, Brian comes to me the other night and tells me to smell his shirt...a shirt that was in his bag he carries to work everyday. I smell it and it smells really bad. He tells me I must have not dried it all the way and it has a moldy smell. I don't say anything but think to myself "yeah, sure!" A few minutes later he returns and this is what he is holding.......
Now....I must have done what???? Who knows how long that banana was in his bag. Now I get the pleasure of washing the bag :)

Spring please come soon

So we either have another ear infection or the last one didn't clear up a few weeks ago. We went to the doctor first thing this morning because mom and dad are running on fumes today and Gavin seems to be happily delirious. I don't know how we handled a newborn! So anyways, another round of antibiotics. Spring where are you? I am ready to have snot free, happy baby!

OoPsY DaIsY

Gavin has a new riding toy that he just loves to ride around the house on....by riding I mean being pushed. It is quite the work out for me but boy does he love it. He hasn't quite figured out how to stay on after we stop though. It is so dang cute. He is really starting to be a lot of fun to play with.

(Excuse the missing pants)

**He looks really cross eyed in the pics...poor guy

Bedroom Bliss

So Brian and I ordered new bedroom furniture a few weeks ago and it is finally here. I really do love it but now I feel like I need MORE new stuff to make it complete. The bedding totally clashes with the wood and we need some wall decor.
