gav's sick day...

silly flu. won't leave gav alone. he just hung out and enjoyed lotsa r&r yesterday...

turkey-time!

well, we've all had the stomach flu! as you can imagine, no fun at all!!!! gav and mark were the true troopers! (only about 12-24 hous of down time for them.) we're finally on the mend now... here are a couple of gav's favorite times during this past week....


gav being a happy sickie!




thanksgiving morning.... at the park with the boys. he couldn't decided if he like watching the dogs chase the ball or playing with the grass....


just woke up from a long nap and on our way to aunt nancy's for turkey-dinner!


hmmm... still a bit under the weather.... or maybe it's that he's on the pedialyte diet while everyone else is eating turkey!


shopping after the holiday in his OU gear... (helping grandpa bill out a bit!)

happy 7 months!!!

7 months is super fun! for gav, life is all about hi-5's, sitting up solo, new noises with his lips... (kinda like he's chewing, but all gums!) his all-time favorite sport right now is bouncing, jumping, bouncing, jumping and more bouncing! good times!


gimme 5! (about 20 times in a row!)

gav's 1st halloween!!!!

hanging out at the pumpkin patch! i think the highlight for gav was twirling his feet around in the sawdust... :)



showing his different faces!


prepping to be a dalmatian!

trying to get some pix of gav and his friends kian and avril at valeria's house. (his awesome babysitter!)
he decided no more pix. reading was much more important!


clownin' around.... total photo-op! tradition here. this clown costume comes through a long line of kids! it's been worn by brennan, lauren, evan, allie, meghan and anna. (all of mark's nieces and nephews) i think that it's almost 14 years old now?!? good thing he only had it one for a few minutes, he was about to bust out of it!


getting ready for the night! (rapidly approaching sleepy-time!)



he's out! our little dalmatian lasted for about 20 minutes.... (ps, blanket by grandma jo!)


our little family.... (minus the doggies... they were at home handing out candy with grandma jo). can you see him all nestled in there?

fun times with gav!

rockin' out in his exersaucer!


lotsa kisses from karson!


already grabbing for the remote? say it isn't so!!!


silly gav! cracking himself up while i was imitating his noises...
