Day 75: Backyard Playtime (8/8)

Summer is quickly coming to an end. The days of being naked in our backyard are almost done. I don't know what they kids are going to have to do when they need to wear clothes all day. We started out in the pool, made our way to the sand box (best thing ever!!) and ended our time on the air plane. The sand box was given to us from a neighbor down the street, we add nice sand and a few sand toys and I can't believe how much the kids love playing in it. Whenever they make it to the backyard, they always end up in the sand box. We are slowly losing sand as well but I can't complain. They love it so much. 

Day 71: Big Brother (8/4)

Rallie, Wes, and Eisley love Gavin so much. It's crazy how they follow him around and want to be doing whatever he's doing. Today, Gavin was play his DS and Eisley climbed up onto his chair and under the covers just so she could watch him. Gavin helped her up and under and talked to her the entire time. It warms my heart to watch Gavin, Rallie, Wes, and Eisley interact with each other. 

Day 42: My Super Heroes (7/6)

This picture makes me smile! Everyone is very into super heroes, they usually are but we just discovered the movie, The Incredibles. They love it. So when they got these silly glasses in a wacky pack meal, they went nuts!! They have been playing super heroes all morning. Eisley does where her glasses but she has this thing when I take a picture she does the opposite of what I'm asking... 

I told them all to be super heroes and these are the poses I got. LOVE IT!!

Day 22: Eisley is Spiderman (6/16)

Eisley watches and watches intently. If she sees Gavin, Rallie or Wes do it, then she must do it as well and just as good. She watches them play and as soon as they walk away or drop it she picks it up and imitates what they were doing. It's so fun to watch her learn and grow. Today Wes was playing spiderman and she followed him around and watched him chase and growl at everyone. She laughed and ran from him. As soon as he dropped it, she picked it up, put it on and growled at me. She crawled around and chased who ever would run. She laughed and laughed. I can't believe that we have four kids but I am do blessed that my fourth one was Eisley. Her personality brightens my day and she's amazing. 

Day 21: "Gavin, piggy ride!" (6/15)

Gavin has learned to give Rallie and Wes piggy back rides. Throughout the day, one or another will call out for Gavin. "Gavin, piggy ride!" They will stand on the couch and Gavin will back up and they will jump on. Gavin takes them around the house and I hear them laugh and it makes my heart happy. I love that they love each other so much. 

Day 104: Rallie's Excitement (4/14)



This picture is worth a thousand words to me. Rallie follows Gavin around the room and is always searching for him when she can hear his voice. She just loves her big brother!

Day 93: Big Boy (4/3)

We pulled out bigger toys for the babies. They love sitting up and are growing so much. Rallie has more fun in this but Wes looked so much cuter! They are growing so fast. 

Day 77: Damn Candy Crush (3/18)

This game drives me nuts and I started playing well before Sami and Garvis. They have passed me and I am stuck on this dang level. I started play when I went of bed rest and have continued while breast feeding {it was a great way to stay entertain when you're stuck feeding!} I don't get to play as much as I used to but I enjoy it just the same.

Day 47: Painting Dinosaurs on a Lazy Saturday (2/16)

Day 43: Snow Fall (2/12)

It was the first snow fall of the year and most likely the last. I wonder if we will have a snow day tomorrow? I doubt it. 

Gavin was so excited to go out and play. 

Day 25: PlayZone (1/25)

We went to the PlayZone tonight. Gavin LOVED it and has been asking to go back every hour. We took the twins to Mese and BR's house and spent some quality time with our little man. 

Day 22: Gavin the Photographer (1/22)

Found these lovely photos on my phone after taking a shower this morning. What a lovely surprise! Gavin is such a photographer. The tv picture is of Bubble Guppies one of his favorite tv shows right now. I love the picture of Rallie, my milky mouth baby!! Such fun at my house. 

Day 3: Baby Toys Make a Comeback (1/3)

Baby toys are making starting to litter the living room floor. We brought this out today and laid the twins in it. They were ok with it for a bit but got bored quickly. Actually, Gavin enjoyed it more. He played with it for most of the night and even made it into a tent. Silly boy. 

Day 183: Finally Outside! (4/23)

After a winter of having the trampoline inside, Rennie was finally able to break it down and take it outside. Oklahoma has had such beautiful weather that we've been outside everyday this week. Gavin loves jumping outside.

Day 158: Thursday Night at Jones (3/29)

Most Thursday nights, we head over to the town of Jones. We only live about 12 miles away so its a quick trip. Every Thursday, Jones has an auction. Usually its mostly horse supply but sometimes there is some pretty random items. One night there was a Coach purse. I don't know if it was real but it's fun. Think of it like a garage sale but in auction form. Gavin has to have his guys and last week another boy showed Gavin this trick so we wanted to do it himself. He was pretty proud!

Day 129: Finally Awake (2/29)

It doesn't look like much but he's awake and asking to play trains. It didn't last very long but he isn't sleeping all day and he wants to play. 

My G-man is making a comeback!

Day 102: Silly Boy (2/12)

Seriously this child cracks me up everyday!!

Day 100: Playing Pretend (2/10)

How exciting to reach 100 days!!

So this night Gavin came out of his room with this stick in his mouth and barking like a doggie. He pretended to be a dog for a while and even wanted Rennie to throw the stick so he could fetch it. It was so funny. Sometimes I don't know where he learns to do these things. Gavin amazes me everyday. 

I included the video I took of him "fetching" his stick! So cute. :)

Day 91: Air Hockey (2/1)

Gavin played his first game of air hockey today. I was surprised at how well he did and how many times he was able to hit the moving puck. 

The second picture is how he would laugh with me when he scored against Daddy!

It's so fun to watch him grow! He is such a joy everyday and I couldn't imagine our lives without him.

Day 83: Playing Cars (1/22)

I wonder how many times I have "played cars" with Gavin...
