More ammunition

In follow-up to my video post of Gavin discovering his nostrils, here's another great photo that will come in handy some day for embarrassment. He found great fun tonight in demonstrating how momma wears her shoes.

A Day at the Park...

For Grandma

My parents are vacationing in Europe for two weeks, so I've been given strict instruction that I need to post photos so they can get their "Gavin fix" while away. Here are some photos of just everyday stuff, nothing terribly exciting.

Gavin is getting quite good at coordinating utensils. Here he is enjoying Cheerios with milk. It's still a bit of a messy experience, but much less messy than just a couple of months ago.

He looks so old to me in this picture. Sometimes I look at him and still see the baby in him, other times, I look and I can see glimpses to the future of Gavin as an older child or even teenager. I can see some of the teenager in him here.

Mischievousness is at an all time high. Many times the furniture becomes off-limit because Gavin is just too wild and fearless...and his mother is not!

"Boons" - Balloons, great fun!

Nostrils

Time for a video update. Embarrassing footage that will provide good leverage in the future when Gavin is a teenager.

Water Baby

A long over-due update to the blog...sorry avid followers, we've been having too much fun this summer to keep up on the blog. And now I'm exhausted and up entirely too late, so you will have to settle for a mini photo-dump. Gavin was so excited to get his first life jacket. He wore it all around the house. And when he's not wearing it, we frequently find him pulling it behind him all around the house, like his little companion.

Over the holiday weekend, we stopped at this cute little park in Holland and let Gavin run around through the water spraying everywhere -- great fun! Here are just a few of the hundred or so photos I shot...
