Look how cute G looks in this hat! Some friends of ours, Kyle and Melissa, came to visit from Canada and this is Kyle's hat, isn't he handsome! We went to LAX to pick them up and on the way home we stopped at the La Brea tar pits in LA, In n' Out (no brainer..) and the next day we did lunch on the pier at Ruby's, drove through the parking lot of the temple, and the Birch Aquarium. We only had 2 days with them so couldn't do ALL the fun things but hopefully they come here again! OR... we may have to go to BC... who knows!

Happy Easter!




Hey everybody, I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Holiday and spring break! We spent Easter Sunday at Ren's parents house, we got there in the morning and I made some de-lish blueberry banana pancakes, we had a pork roast for lunch and Natalie made a oh so yummy chocolate strawberry cake for dessert! Annie and Natalie hide some Easter eggs around the house and the boys went on the hunt, it was pretty funny. Gavin just wanted to eat them! So, we were just watching conference and all of a sudden a earthquake hit... It was funny because we all just sat there thinking "ok this will be over any second..." and it just kept going! By the time we finally decided to go outside, the earthquake stopped and stuff was just swaying all over the house!
So now we have a crazy week, I am back to work this week covering for a girl who went on vacation, and Ren is in Salt Lake City working so I am thankful I have family close to help with Gavin. He had his 6 month check yesterday, weighing in at 17.5 lbs and doing very well. He has 2 teeth that popped up, and he is sitting up all by himself and sooooo close to crawling. I keep telling people at work "He is gonna crawl for the first time while I'm working and Ren is out of town..." (just my luck it would happen that way) So we will see...

Crusin'

Gavin is starting to really move in his baby walker! He just discovered he can go forward, so he MOVES now.

G in the mirror

This boy loves seeing himself in the mirror. He thinks he is so fun to play with!

We're Famous!

On Saturday Dana, Natalie, and myself did the 5k race around Lake Hodges to finish the race to Chelsea King. We brought G in my jogging stroller and there was some pretty rough terrain, more rugged than I thought it would be! So this puddle was more like a miniature lake... really deep and humongo! But worth it cause we got our picture in the paper! Totally awesome! Check it out... http://nctimes.com/news/local/escondido/article_a27553cd-1129-5026-9a19-4453669caac3.html?mode=image&photo=8

Happy St. Patrick's Day!



I love this holiday because I love green! Normally I do the same ol' green pancakes for St. Patty's day breakfast, but this morning I made green eggs and ham on toast! Looked kinda gross, but it was fun! G and I also went to play group this morning and we had a St. Patrick's day party... it was hot already at 9:30 in the morning. Gavin and his buddy are only a week apart, and G looks so fat next to Owen.

Plumbers Crack



Gavin is sitting up on his own pretty well now. Need I saw more about his little bum crack!
