JaCkSoN HoLe and YeLLoWsToNe

Sorry it has taken so long for me to post pictures of our fabulous trip to Jackson Hole and Yellowstone with Jason's family. Our computers are being silly and aren't recognizing the memory card from our camera!

Back to the fun: Our big summer vacation this year we spent with Jason's family up in Jackson Hole and Yellowstone over the 4th of July! We had a BLAST!! We were camping in a trailer the whole time with camp fires and the whole bit. Gavin LOVED it!!! He loved being outside exploring all the plants (last camping trip he was crawling and wasn't as mobile...now he's practically running) and COULD NOT go anywhere unless he had a ROCK in his hand. Too cute! Jason's family goes every year to Jackson Hole but we have missed the last 3 years due to law school. It was so good being their with everyone and enjoy beauty of the Tetons and Yellowstone National Park! Love to all for an AWESOME trip!

We took a ton of pics...so enjoy! :)

Playing Catch Up

So I am totally behind in my blogging and I hate that feeling! Gavin is learning new things a mile a minute; I can hardly keep up with the little guy. Here's what our precious boy has been up to:

Gavin is all but running these days! He is walking so good and is so steady now. He even stands up from a sitting position! He is such a busy, curious little boy and loves to check out everything.

Since Gavin was 6 months old he was been watching Signing Time videos that teach him sign language. He LOVES the videos and is now starting to sign to communicate. His first sign was dog, for Sugar. She gets all the love and doesn't even know it! He can also sign all done and more. It's really cute!

Gavin is talking these days as well. He says Momma, Daddy, Puppy, Daw (for dog), hi, bye-bye, baby and "ba-bee" (for blankie). He imitates many other words after you say them but we can't get him to repeat them, so they are one time things at the moment.

Gavin is definitely a BOY!! He LOVES playing outside in the rocks and the mud! Last week I was outside brushing Sugar (she was shedding SO bad) and Gavin was walking around outside playing with the rocks. Well, he finally got brave enough to walk in the grass but the ground isn't level and he face planted in the MUD!
