Splish Splash with Natalie!

We had a great day yesterday...5/21/11!  We met Suzanne and Natalie in down town Pensacola at the Plaze Del Luna....water fountian play park area by the water.  Gavin had a blast.  It was his first time there and he loved playing in the fountains and meeting up with his friend Natalie.  She was just adorable in her pokadot bathing suit and pink sun glasses.  Gavin use to wear his hat and sunglasses but he has discovered taking off his clothes so I'm happy just to keep them on in public these days.  They shared snacks and but sharing toys Gavin hasn't gotten the hang of yet.  At the end of our time there he started to share giving Natalie back her toys she brought.  We will definately have to buy a bucket and shovel for our next visit. 

Here are the pics!

 Gavin took over Natalie's buckets right away...thank goodness she didn't seem to mind.  She is such a sweet little girl. 

 I'm gonna getcha!  Hand over the buckets! 

 He eventually figured out how to get the water in the bucket.

 How cute is Nat in her sunglasses!

 Yummm! Tap water!  lol

 Scoop up that water!

 Pretty Natalie rockin it like a movie star!

 Peanut butter yum!!!

 Gavin...fun in the sun and water! 

 I love when he squats!

 He finally managed to stop the leak!  BP could use his skills!  lol

 I love this pic....they are so cute together.

Sharing YAY!

Water Baby!

These are some videos I took of us playing outside today with the water hose. Was a fun day! Gavin drank from the hose! Good memories!

Gavin is back from his visit with his Nana and Papa.  He had a great time!  He has been cracking me up all day.  Here are the picks from today.

He is a climber now!

He looks soooo innocent!  lol

He loves talking on the phone and will carry my cell all over holding it up to his ear and jabbering and laughing away.  Its too cute!

He loves to take the cushion out of the chair and crawl over over it.

He laid down on the cushion and was scooting all over the floor.

When the dogs saw he was on the floor they attacked him with kisses.  They love Gavin!

He would climb up on the chair and balance on his belly on the arm of the chair and flip over.  He made me laugh sooo hard!

I see you!

I am one with the chair!

He likes to play with the vcr...yes we still have one of those!  lol 

He tries to fit on the shelf...squeezing his head and putting one leg up there.  He is a nut!

This is his new thing.  Trying to take off and put on his clothes.

He was dancing to imagination movers concert. 

My little hurricane...he can mess up a room in no time flat!  It wasn't me mommy!

Gavin's Magic Trick!

Gavin was cracking me up all day today! Here is some video of his antics!

Easter 2011

We had a great Easter this year.  The Easter Bunny came and left Gavin lots of goodies!  Nana and Papa came over...we ate, had a egg hunt and relaxed.  Gavin is 18 months and is climbing everything in his path!  One day we thought he was playing nice in his room.  Ben went in there to check on him and he was up on his changing table covered with desitin.  He had it all over his face, body, table, walls....was a mess but we couldn't help but laugh.  Time to child proof the drawers he used as a ladder.  He is 22lbs and growing!  He is constantly doing crazy things to make up laugh.  His Nana and Papa took him back to MS with them for a week or so.  Last night we kept thinking we heard him but then remembered he wasn't here.  Sooooo quiet without our little booger.  Here are some pics from Easter!

Gavin's Easter Goodies!

 In the morning Ben got Gavin when he woke and I had the camera ready.  He walked out of his room and had the biggest smile on his face and ran down the hall towards me.  Its soooo nice to see that smiling face in the morning.   

Big Smiles!

 He went straight for the eggs....there was candy all over the floor when he was done.

 Little chick.

 He kept the bunny ears on long enough for the pic.  Ben had them on his head for longer!  lol

 Gavin loves his books!

 This is one of the first things he does when he wakes up...he finds his shoes and usually brings them to me to put them on for him. 

 Gavin loved his hide and seek bunny!

 Gavin and his daddy.

 He loves when Ben jumps while he is up on his shoulders.

 Gavin is a climber!  Climbing all over the place!

 He likes to slap tables....and then he will grab my hand to slap it too....he is so funny.

 Gavin rocking in his rocking chair!  Gotta love it!

 Egg hunting with Papa and Daddy!

 Gavin and his Papa.

 He really got into it when he knew what to do.

 Everytime he picked an egg up he would inspect it and try to open it. 

 Can you tell the eggs had candy in them?  Little vaccums eatting it up!

 Love it when he squats down to pick the eggs up. 

 He finally held his basket...then wanted someone else to take it.  He has to have his hands free to explore!

Nana, Papa, and Gavin....was nice sitting out on the porch, rocking in the rocking chair, talking, and watching Gavin play.
