Our Trip to Arizona

Gavin and I took a road trip to Arizona with my Aunt Rachel and her kids. I liked how you could see Gavin's hair in the sunlight.
Gavin loved sitting in this highchair. I didn't realize that he would be able to sit on his own, but he loved being able to look around.
This costume is a little too big...and, as you can tell, Gavin loved it.
Abby and Bastian loved holding and playing with Olivia and Gavin. Olivia also loves sitting in the high chair. She also likes to make funny faces--unfortunately I didn't get any good shots of those funny faces.Gavin and Grandma

Gavin and I were able to have lunch with Ben's Grandma Smith. It was so fun to see her again! Here is a four generation picture.

This Post is for Sydney*

*Ben's cousin, Sydney, looks at our blog all the time, so this post is dedicated to her. Thanks Sydney for your dedication!
My sister, Cherisse, got a kidney stone, so Gavin and I went down to Orem to help take care of her. He was smiling so cute!
Mostly, she just slept on the couch.
Once she passed the stone and was feeling better, we had some pizza.
Gavin just looks so relaxed laying next to Cherisse. He didn't get a good nap all day.
During date night, we let Gavin hold his own bottle. He was actually pretty good at it.
Can you spot the baby in the next two pictures. Gavin got all enveloped in the sheets.
(Don't worry, after I took the picture, I removed the sheet from his face and made sure he wouldn't suffocate.) Another headdress. Gavin always gets a big smile when Ben does this.
Ben and I were able to go on our first bike ride together in a year and it was my first ride since Gavin was born. My Aunt Rachel watched Gavin for us, so we could have some time together alone. I struggled a little on the way up, but I actually did better than I thought I would. Thanks again, Rachel, for taking care of Gavin!
