Christmas Pictures 2008.

We spent Christmas Eve at my Moms. I'm still waiting on the pictures she took but here are a few from me to tide ya over! :).

This is Gavin's new electric 4 wheeler. He freakin' loves it! I can't believe he figured out right away how to push the button to go!

December 2008

Wow I can't believe it's been so long since I posted!!! Sorry! I've just been super busy this month! My best friend Michelle is having a girl!! I felt so special because only me and Amanda knew what she was having at first!!! :) But then Garrett blew the cover so she told everyone else. lol. Kids! I'm sooooo excited I've got bunches of pictures from this month to post. Gavin loves christmas :). He loves his big snow globe, his stuffed snow men and reindeer, the tree, and the lights!

He has changed a ton this month. He is still not talking but he has more pronounced sounds like he is trying. He does say dada and mamma sometimes. He has said Byeeee like two times. And he has asked maggie if she needs to "teeeteee" once! lol. He is trying! He also LOVES music and dancing! He can bust a move at the sound of a commercial lol. He is in an adorable stage. He already had 7 teeth and now he has two more molars trying to pop through. He is very clumsy! Loves his rocking horse and LOVES pushing buttons!!!!

After several "christmas'" with families we have LOADS of stuff !!

More pictures to come from christmas eve and christmas day!! :)

Just a November Weekend

This weekend was busy! Started out running.....home to meet appraiser , then over to Wal-Mart then home to get stuff ready for the weekend. Then saturday made fruit salad and went to Stampin' Up saturday morning club. Love that group! Gonna miss it in december!! Then off to lunch at my mom's and then to see Twilight! Then home to bake some brownies! Saturday night Michelle, Kris and Garrett came to hang out with us. We played Taboo, which is soooo fun! Sunday my dad, sister and mother in law all came over for Thanksgiving dinner. It was delicious! My boss had fried me a turkey and my dad had smoked a big 15 lb steak! It was great. We have left overs!! Last night I put up all the christmas decorations. Gavin loved the tree! He just looked at it and smiled! And stood next to it lol.

Twilight was a good movie. Not great, but good. I guess it would have been better if I hadn't read the book! I just hate when they change things up in the movie from the book. Like Charlie should have been older. Jacob was not as hot as he was in the book LOL. Edward was way too shy and insecure acting in the movie compared to his confident eloquently speaking self in the book. The school wasn't 2 stories in my mind LOL. And her friends looked different than I would have pictured. Rosalie was different than I woulda thought. Carlisle was different too! And certain scenes were completely different than in the book. Oh well. It was good, just different.

Pneumonia

Poor Gavin was so sick from Thursday the 6th till Thursday the 13th! Then He went back to school. He had tons of breathing treatments. Doesn't he look so sad sick?! And he lost a whole pound at least while he was sick but then gained it back and then someone in this last week!!

He finally loves his horse! He will try to ride it and bounce up and down but we really have to hide our hand and rock it. :D Totally cute. This last two weeks he also learned to dance!! TOTALLY AWESOME!! AND he kinda sorta found the first movie he likes to watch! It's a Little Tykes movie. He will watch it much more than anything else. But other than that he doesn't really watch any TV, other than the like 30 minutes in the morning while he eats breakfast and chills. He also looks so cute and gettin' so much older looking! He is really bad about trying to go up the stairs on his own. When he wants to go to bed he grabs his puppy and heads for the stairs. :)

I was loading the dishwasher one day and he walked away and got the glass that was sitting on the coffee table and brought it to put in the dishwasher!!! Soooo smart. He still won't really say any words though. He kinda sorta says 'teetee' when we ask the dog Maggie if she needs to go outside to 'teetee'. So he kinda tries to copy it, but not real clear. He is really loving his little handihauler thingy. It's like a little tykes car with a handle on it. He lugs it around everywhere! I've been in such a mood to scrapbook lately but haven't had time!

I'm in the process of trying to refi my house and have to have an appraisal on it tomorrow. It was supposed to be on Monday so last weekend we all turbo cleaned the house just to have them not come! But the house sure did sparkle!! We even washed the damn walls and steamed the carpet with a little hand steamer! Looks great though.

This weekend we are going to see Twilight!! I'm soooooooo excited!! I've read the first two and a half books out of four! Much better than I thought they would be. Me and Michelle are also going to The Stamp Shack Saturday for our Saturday Morning club. I've gotta go shopping to make some stuff cause I'm one of the hostesses this time. Fun! Anywhooooo sorry for such a long post but had to catch up!!!
