No Phone :(

It's official...my phone died! I can't believe I've had my cheap little phone for over 2 years...it's time for a new phone for me :) Until then, email is the only way to get a hold of me or call Mike's phone. Hope everyone is doing well.

The Basket!

The other day I was trying to do laundry and Gavin wanted to help me...So I let him stay in the basket and I continued to do what I was doing...
Mike even tied a rope around the basket and pulled him around the house :)

Now Gavin thinks he needs to play in this stupid basket EVERY DAY!!!

Kids...they are so easily entertained. Whatever makes him happy :)

First "real" hair cut & 9 months old!

Before...

During...

After... :)

Happy 9 months Gavin!

At his 9 month Dr's visit he weight 22.2 lbs and was 30 inches long!

Lets Play!

The first FIVE people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2- What I create will be just for you.
3- It'll be done this year. (might be a little while)
4- You have no clue what it's going to be.It may be a story. It may be a joke book, autographed picture of myself, handmade bag, or a little invention of my own! I may create you a blog header or paint something for you with my food. (That would be scary). I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows?
5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange. Believe me... it may blow your mind!
The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it! Sounds like fun, right? So, let's play!

Fun in the snow and 8 months old!

The Saturday after Christmas my parents took us tubing and we had so much fun!

When the night was over Hayden told me that he can't wait until we go again next year. I guess this will have to be our new yearly tradition :)

Gavin all ready for the snow!

8 months old and getting bigger every day!
He is having fun learning how to crawl and climb up on things.

I'm not sure why it's so fun to play with his spoon after he eats, but it makes
him happy :)

Just two days ago Gavin figured out how to sit back up after crawling around...it's funny to watch his reaction after he sits up! He acts like it was the hardest thing he has ever done :)
