Spring is here!

So, one of the greatest things about Matt and I's jobs is we get to be home with each other. I love how flexible the Courthouse is, and I love having Matt around when he has the chance to do so. And as you can see, Gavin loves it too. Matt was trying to get some work done, but its hard to concentrate with our little man around. So Matt decided to give in for a while, but also teach Gavin that before we get to play, we need to work.
He loves playing with the computer. Anytime he can get his chubby little fingers on the keys he'll do it. It's so funny. Here they are, father and son, workin hard....so cute.

After the work is done, its time to play. So today, (Friday the 18th) was so nice out. I love having a home where we can just go out back and enjoy our yard, our privacy and the beautiful weather. Gavin loves it too. He's still so curious about so many things like bushes, dirt, and grass. I put some balls out for him to play with because he loves those more then dirt. :) So this afternoon, I got a blanket out, a bunch of toys, some water and my camera and just played outside. As you can see, he really enjoys it.


No idea what he's saying here, probably "hi". That's his word of the week. Its hi to everyone. When we go to the gym, the store, church, everyone gets a hi. He's most likely saying hi to the ball at this point.



Okay so he doesn't really look too excited here, but he always does this when Im going to take his picture. He takes after Matt in that way. Matt likes to look serious sometimes when we get our picture taken, I guess its a guy thing. :)



Wearing mama's shades. He is so funny. He took them off, looked at them, then tried to put them back on his head, which according to him is the back side of his head......he kept holding them behind his head then dropping them, wondering why they weren't staying on.



Here's the happy boy! I love being able to spend so much time with my family. I love my job, I love being able to work somewhere I love with people I love and respect, and yet only have to do so 12 hours a week. And I LOVE being able to spend the rest of all my time with this guy!

Weekend at the Coast


Last weekend Gavin and I got spend time with my mama and sister at the coast. Gavin really loves playing with all his cousins, even though he does get a little overwhelmed sometimes, he knows them and has such a good time. Daniel especially makes him laugh which is so fun to watch. We had a great time.


Gavin and Grandma waiting to go out and play. It was actually really warm on Saturday, but then the wind picked up on Sunday.


Gavin and Ashley, sitting on the bed. Gavin decided he wanted to play with her pacifier since he doesn't take one.


After looking at it, then examining it, he thought it was best to give it back.



Only Ashley didn't want it back, which of course hurt Gavin's feelings. I love this picture. He looks so funny, and Ashley could care less!




So we decided to let him have some alone time to collect his thoughts, and calm down. It only took about 7 seconds for him to forget what he was upset about. :)




First time ever at the Coast, in the sand and seeing the Ocean.
He was really curious as to why his walking was more difficult here.



He loved playing with it though, and tired to eat it a couple of times. This is him watching his cousin Daniel play on a huge sand slide.



My favorite picture from the whole weekend. His funny-happy face. I love my son.



And saying goodbye as the sun set. Gavin and Nathan looking out at the water and watching the birds. It was a really nice weekend and I hope next time Matt can come with! Love you hubbs.
