Family Pictures

I know we just got Family pictures done at the end of September, but we now have baby Garett so we have to get NEW Family pictures with him in them.  And from the side bar you can see some of them are posted but here are some other cute ones.

Boys Photo Shoot

On the 26th of April, I took the boys to get updated Birthday photos from Fotofly.  Gavin loved it and had a great time.  Greyson on the other hand had a really rough time and we didn't get much of him or of the boys together.  But we did get some good shots and I am thankful for the pictures I do have!  I love these boys!

Boy's PhotoShoot

The day before Greyson's Birthday we had a photoshoot with the boys at Fotofly.  Loved them, loved that place and we got some AMAZING pictures.  Here are a few of my favorites.

Easter 2010

For Easter this year my Sister-in-law wanted to do Easter Pictures in the kids Easter outfits. We met at Walmart on Saturday for a Photo Shoot & let me tell you what...it was NOT a fun time. If 1 baby was okay, the other was screaming. They kept crawling/scooting away & yeah. Great fun! We did manage to get some GREAT SHOTS! Loves them!

On Easter Sunday we went up to Michelle's house for Conference & an Easter Brunch! It was yummy & fun to hang out with family. Gavin loves playing with & following around his cousins. He made it an early night because Gavin didn't nap at all at Michelle's, so we came home & hung out before bed time as a family!

Here is a picture of Gavin's Easter basket. We just got him toys, stuffed animals & a chair to sit in. When he saw it Sunday morning, he started squealing & getting excited! He LOVED it!

My Mother-in-law also gave Gavin this Horse that he LOVES. When we put him on it, we have to be prepared to have him either throw a temper tantrum if we take him off, or stop rocking him & we have to redirect his attention. When he is still on the horse & we stop rocking him, he will rock side to side to get us to start rocking again (the horse rocks forward to back, so it is kinda cute) When he is not on it he will crawl over to it, climb up to it & rock it himself! Cute!

It was a great Easter/Conference Sunday!

Last Weeks Highlights

Here are some happenings in our house last week:

*Gavin started Clapping.

*We used the last Milk bag last Thursday the 1st of April.

*I am starting to ween.

*Still training for my 5k in June - I am really going to train this time so I do MUCH better then last time.

*I put Gavin in his first "time out" & I think he had more fun in his crib then playing in Bear's food & water dish - hehe.

*Gavin learned how to go up the stairs. He did it at Mike's Sister's house yesterday. We haven't tried it with him before because we are ALWAYS upstairs. He even went down 1 step by himself.

*We are trying to find a day care provider in the Eagle Mountain area who isn't going to charge us an arm & a leg to watch our little guy no more then 20 hours per week (plug) If you know someone, please let me know! Thanks!

*We are still trying to sell our house...no bites yet. I have my theories & so does Mike, we will just see what happens.

*Gavin's Clogged Tear Duct eye (Right eye) is still draining like CRAZY lately. It is either starting to unclog itself, or it is getting worse...so a scope will be in our future this summer.

*We (My Sister-in-law) & I went to get the kids' Easter Pictures taken on Saturday...that was a disaster! We did get some good pictures, but the two little one where not having much of it a lot of the time! We are still traumatized!

~I think that is all the notable happenings from last week! Have a great 1st week of April!

Year 1 Photo Shoot

Here is some more pictures from the Photo Shoot with Ashley for Gavin's first year! I hope you like them!

Sneak Peak

Ashley just sent me some proofs from the 1st Birthday Photo Shoot she did with Gavin a couple weeks ago! What do you think? I for one can't wait to see the rest. ENJOY!

Busy Month

I NEED to add pictures, this blog is looking a little bland & bare. Anywho...it is officially MARCH. The busiest month of the year for us I think. It is the month of:

*Gavin's 1st Birthday
*Gavin's 1st Birthday Party
*A Mini Vacay to St. George
*Gavin's 1st Birthday Photo Shoot
*Our 5th Anniversary
*12 Month Well Check visit
*Our 1st 5k
*Daylight Saving Time
*Spring
*Other Birthdays & Anniversaries

At the beginning of last month (February) I was really dreading today. I was remembering the 1st of March last year & I was kind of dreading it then too. Last year because it was just getting closer to when Gavin would be here & I didn't feel ready. I knew he would eventually have to come out, I didn't know it was going to be in 8 days. At the beginning of last month I was dreading it because that would mean that Gavin is 1, no longer a baby, more a toddler. But today, it is whole different story. I am anticipating it, I am looking forward to it, I am reeling in the busy-ness of this month & I am LOVING it! It is like I had an attitude adjustment or an epiphany of the greatness to come...or something like that!

So MARCH - I have 3 words for you...BRING. IT. ON! This month is going to fly by & in a blink of an eye it will be April before we know it!

Family Pictures

We had Ashley take our Family pictures a couple weekends ago. I can't wait to get the CD of all the images from her, but until then, I have posted on the side bar some of the proofs that she sent to us of our cute little Family, of Mike & I & of the LG. Check them out & let me know what you think? I will post more pictures when I get them from her! Thanks again Ashley for doing this for us!

Gavin Photo Shoot

For the last several weeks, my plan has been to go to a park in the area & take some cutsey pictures of my baby boy. It didn't happen until last weekend. Here is what I came up with. I am hoping to get out again this Saturday with Mike in the afternoon & get some other pictures with us. Enjoy the pictures. PS - this post will be picture OVERLOAD!
