During May we had a lot of fun. We had some house projects that we helped with outside and Gavin heard the Ice cream truck for the first time. The picture is of him trying to figure it out by himself. He's heard it once since and doesn't cry that he doesn't get ice cream, but cries when the music stops. When it starts again he starts dancing, he is so funny. We went down to Cedar City for Memorial Day and Nate's brother and his family came up. The nice weather decided to take a holiday and we had to battle pretty fierce winds all of friday. During the night it started raining which turned to hale and by morning there was spots with snow on the ground. Needless to say, we packed up camp pretty quick since saturday was shaping up to be no better than Friday. But we got to hang out and do smores and Grandpa and Grandma Barney even got all the kids Harmonicas (which they decided to practice on for the next few days).So we retreated back to Grandpas house for the rest of our stay and had the hardships of playing with legos and Air hockey.

March/ April Gavin is now around 21 months old. He's made a few friends around the neighborhood and when we went for a walk, we ended up playing with his cool toys. Gavin also LOVES to be outside. He has now discovered dirt and like to play in it and occasionally sample it to make sure it still tastes ok. He Loves to help his Grandma Winn with her yard work using a little shovel or just watering the flowers keeps him happy. We spent Easter at my brother Dans house with my sisters Kim and Alissa and their Families. We did an Easter Egg Hunt where Gavin made everyone laugh by running away from me while i was trying to hold the eggs for him and by shouting "EGG" in a creapy monster voice. He is so funny. The cousins also ended up playing dress up so of course pictures are taken. Gavin is getting so big now, i've really tried to appreciate everyday i have with him because i know he wont stay little for long, and even though he like to get a little rowdy, he's still great at being a sweetheart.

In February we played in the snow a lot when there was some but Gavin decided he wanted to eat it instead of build a snow man with me, but sometimes we had to play inside and he's just as silly.

This was Back in January when Gavin was Around 19 Months old. We just got home from Cedar City and had decided to give a three day naked potty training approach a try. He has done phenomenal! i get so frustrated when after a week or two he has an accident for no reason, but then i remember he's not even two yet and to just be happy with his progress; we all know-accidents happen. We got to try out the snow suit Grandpa and Grandma Barney got Gavin for Christmas, Mary is so talented she quickly made him a matching beanie in record time too!

Well I found a couple cute photos back in December so i wanted to share those. One is Christmas morning where Gavin opened his cool 3-1 truck and the other is playing at the Park.

Back in November, Nate,Gavin and I went to Modesto for Thanksgiving to see my family in that area. We mostly got to hang out and play games, but we all did go bowling one day and Gavin had so much fun. He played in the arcade and got to bowl for Aunt Andi while she was busy.

We also went to a park and threw a frisbee and football around while my brother Greg's son Noah got to get outside and play a little with Gavin on the playground.

Back home in Utah, we tried out the "puffy" jacket, and after several long minutes of crying, I got Gavin in it and out the door

A few days before Christmas Gavin almost climbed out of his pack n play that he sleeps in, so we decided to get him a toddler bed so that way if he did fall out it would only be a few inches instead of a few feet. He instantly loved it! I could
hardly put it together without him trying to sit on it. He's done really well with it ever since and i've got him trained to stay in bed until i come get him out... we'll see how long that lasts.

Christmas Morning was a blast, we had doughnuts and woke up grandma and grandpa winn to open presents.

December is the crazy month for Nate at work, so we take our vacation to cedar city at new years time. We had a lot of fun down there with nate's stepbrothers. Nate and His dad were assisted by Gavin in making us a camping box
