Farnsworth Family Pictures 2010

The day after Thanksgiving my Family went & got some Family Pictures done since we were all together. I love the way they turned out, even though we were all FREEZING!

21 Months

I have decided that this will be my last update on Gavin Post until he turns 2 then I will do a quarterly or so post! If something big comes up, I will post it!

This Month Gavin has pretty much stayed the same. He can...

*Count to 4, we are working on counting higher but after 4 he just says "GO!"

*He can wipe his nose, which tells me he knows what his nose is & what wiping is! Good sign!

*He knows how to work the DVD player. He knows how to change it from DVD to VHS & push play. He also know how to turn on the TV. That is when you know he is bored & wants to watch something.

*His favorite words this month, Mike, Light, go!

*He has started to become interested in coloring. He found a pen the other day & a notebook & colored on a lot of the pages. At least it wasn't on the walls!

We love our LG#1!

2010 Christmas Card

If you didn't get our Christmas Card this year: ENJOY! Merry Christmas!

Lights & Trains

Last week we found these Police Red & Blue lights that spin. Gavin FELL IN LOVE with them as soon as we turned them on.

Then today we set up the Train under the Christmas Tree. Gavin had the best time running and driving the train around the track all morning!

Temple Square

Last weekend, we ventured Downtown to Temple Square with our good friends Kammi, Kevin & Kahlin & with Mike's mom, Mary. We had dinner at CPK & then went to the Temple. It was kind of cold but we were all bundled as you can see in the pictures & Gavin didn't enjoy the stroller so much but LOVED the lights. This is the first year that Mike & I have actually been to see the lights on Temple Square together. We went the 1st year we were married but we flew over it by Helicopter. This is something that we will definitely have to make a yearly Family tradition.

Halloween

We dressed Gavin up as the same Monkey he was last year, because the costume still fit him! Lucky us! He loved his costume & wanted to stay in it forever. I only took him out to two neighbor houses for Trick-or-Treating because it was raining. He liked getting the candy but was shy. Next year he will be totally into it!

Pumpkin Carvin'

Last night my very computer savvy brother came out & fixed my SD Card reader, so I can now FINALLY blog & post pictures. Stay tuned for LOTS of posts. & don't forget to check out some posts below that now have pictures.

Now for some Pumpkin Carving time. The day before (Utah) Halloween we went & got us some pumpkins to carve. Gavin was NOT about the guts inside & really wanted nothing to do with the pumpkins after we started cutting them up. Mike still had his splint on his thumb so I scooped out the guts & he carved them for us, all while we watched "The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown." Our pumpkins turned out really well if I do say so myself. Check out the pictures. Maybe next year Gavin will be more into it?

Thanksgiving

I have so much to be thankful for this year. I have an amazing Son who learns loads & loads everyday. I have a great Husband who works hard for our family. I have the gospel in our lives which provide us with the knowledge that families are forever & how loved we are. We have jobs that provide money & Cars that take us from point A to point B safely. We have amazing Extended Families that are there to help us & encourage us in life. We have the opportunity to become parents again & begin the worry & "drama" all over again. We have great friends who are there for us. We have a lot to be Thankful for & I am thankful for the opportunity to have this blog to record our family events! I hope you all enjoy your Families & Thanksgiving Holiday!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

20 Months

Gavin is now 20 months! Wow time flies. Things he is into this month.

*His favorite words: Daddy, Doggy, Light & Droid - He just last night started saying Khaki for Cathy (My sissy who is here staying with her for Thanksgiving).

*He loves to run around the house & be chased or chase someone else.

*He will sit on the floor with his favorite book which is a book that plays some primary songs & play the songs over & over. He does it constantly all day long.

*He is totally an outside boy which hasn't been the best for him lately because it has been cold, but he tries to get his shoes & coat on all the time to go "bye, bye."

*He loves for you to pick him up so that he can turn on & off the lights with the light switch, that is a new fascination for him.

*He is becoming better & better with people. He will warm up to them & start cuddling with them & give them hugs & kisses. Super fun when we have family over now!

*He loves to give hugs & kisses to Mike & I & other people he feels comfortable with. It is cute.

*He is still a big car boy. He loves to play with his cars, big or small, everywhere we go. We always have to have a car with us.

*He likes to mimic things you say & do. If we are wiping up a spill, he like to help wipe up too!

He definitely keeps us on our toes!
