After his bath, Gavin sits in the sink and plays while his skin air dries.


Gavin likes to sit on my lap while I am on the computer. He usually wants to touch the mouse and the keyboard.

Gavin says "Ooooh" a lot now, especially when you turn a lamp on. It is pretty cute.




Gavin loves climbing on the stairs by our door.

Melissa came down from Idaho to celebrate her birthday with us. I made her a cheesecake in honor of the big day.



We went to Cherisse's Piano recital. Gavin had a hard time being quiet and he only wanted to clap after everybody else finished clapping. Cherisse did an awesome job and we had a wonderful time with her--thanks for inviting us!

Some Fun with Gavin

Gavin loves to swing. This is the first time we went to try the swings at the park.
We went to the park again a few months later when the weather warmed up.




We went to the Red Butte Gardens for Arbor Day. It was beautiful and Gavin enjoyed being outside.




For Mom's Group we went swimming at a pool that has a lazy river, water slide, whirl pool and a lot of water spraying toys. It was really fun!

Easter

The Easter Bunny brought Gavin a new cup, a couple of puzzles and some candy for Mom and Dad! Yea!!
We got Gavin a new Easter church outfit, too.
Me and Cherisse dying Easter eggs.
One of my eggs
I wanted Ben to smile, so naturally he wouldn't.

He smiled but then right before I took the picture, he tried to go grumpy again.
This is what Gavin was doing while we were dying eggs.


Gavin was playing with his basket and he got one of the eggs full of Reese's Pieces open. So, he had a couple. You can see the orange on his shirt.

My broken egg. One egg broke during boiling, so naturally I had to have it. I tried to glue it back together with stickers.
My second egg
Ben and Cherisse rolling their eggs. Apparently I boiled them really well because they didn't break until we started throwing them as high up in the air as we could.

At Annalee's (my cousin) baptism Gavin had fun playing on the piano.
