Birthday Dinner

Happy 23rd Birthday Natalie! Yummy sushi dinner to celebrate! Woot Woot!

Pumpkin Patch

Saturday we went to the pumpkin patch at Bates Nut Farm!!! This is my favorite time of year, I love pumpkins! Gavin liked riding in the wheel barrow (though his face is cold as ice) I tried taking him out of the wheel barrow and he threw a fit. (must take after his dad...dont take him away from something fun.) He was a little skeptical of being surrounded by pumpkins. He would look at you like "how the heck do I get outta this mess!" We went to see the animals, he loved the goats and the chickens! Each person in the family got their own pumpkin to carve for our PaRtY on Saturday! Woot Woot!!!

The Sand Box

So Ren built Gavin a sand box! I should say... in all seriousness... Ren built REN a sand box and Gavin gets to use it. Regardless, both of them love to play in it! They both love pushing the sand around and filling up the Tonka trucks. They both love it so much so that they both cried when I said it was time to come in so G could take his nap. Boys eh'!

Finger Painting

My Dad came over today, and for Gavin's birthday present Grandpa did a finger painting project with him. It was so fun! G loved playing with the paint brushes and of course sticking his fingers in the paint. My Dad made me a huge wooden frame a while ago, so we're going to frame it in that and hang it in his room! It was so messy and so fun!

Baby Gap Casting Contest

Hey... I thought, why not enter Gavin! There are 2 separate contests. One the casting judges pick for the Gap baby, and theres the "fan favorite" where you can sign in ONCE A DAY and vote for your favorite. Whoever has the most with the Fan favorite gets a prize (its like a popularity contest.) Everyone has always told me I should enter him in the Gap thing so here I go. To vote for Gavin go to this site. http://www.gapcastingcall.com/GapCastingCall/Gallery.html Im pretty sure this is a direct link, but their site is SO SLOW. I uploaded 5 pictures so here are the contestant ID#'s 258432, 258487, 258531, 258622, 258572. Thanks everyone! PLEASE VOTE :o)
here are the pictures I submitted:

Suggestions Welcome

Gavin made the transition to whole milk last week... except he HATES regular milk. He hates it so much that he was gagging this morning when I tried to give it to him. Also, if he knows that milk had previously been in his cups, he wont drink out of that cup again unless I force it to him to prove its not milk. Any suggestions...

Birthday Videos

Thought I'd post a video too...why not!
