Cowboy Hats & Broccoli



Gavin came for a sleep over this weekend. His mama and dada were in need of a trip to Wendover so he got to come hang with M & Ampa(Uncle John). He was so interested in going for a walk when he got here that he and John headed to the corner and never looked back. When they came home from their walk, Gavin said "Mamam N Dada bye" That was all. After that he was ready to play. We went down town to the winter fest and looked around then we went to the mail box to drop off the Valentines. Uncle John thought that a trip to Smith N Edwards was next on the agenda because that is what he wanted for Valentines day. So we headed North. When we got into the store Gavin kept looking at all of the animals and making noises that they make. When he saw saddles he was so excited and knew that we would find a neigh some where near. We looked at everything in the store. Gav tried on every hat in the store. We loved the animals of course and were very excited to get a piece of "nany" as we left. Dinner was good. Gavin ate all of M's broccoli. We laughed about it at the time and tried to get him to stop so his tummy didn't hurt but to no avail. He loved it. Bath time was a blast.



Gavin loved squirting with the duck and painting with the shaving cream. He would lay down in the water and shake his head back and forth to show us his hair.
Then off to bed, but not before bedtime stories. We read every book on the shelf and brought a bunch upstairs to sleep with. Gavin loves sleeping in the big bed better than his little bed and once M figured that out the night was lovely. (and the bottle of breast milk @ 3:00am was very helpful)Sunday we ate breakfast and had a great time. Going in and out up and down and playing with snowflake was great but Gavin loved playing all three guitars. He loved it when he could make them ring long enough to get all three ringing at once. His eyes lit up when M played him a song. M finally got him to take a nap, just as mom and dad showed up. They let him sleep a while. When he woke up he past by Uncle John and headed right to M. Then to mom and dad:) He sang and danced. Thanks Gavin for spending Valentines with us and enjoying hanging with us.
