First time…

Michelle March 13th, 2010

We let Bingo stay in Gavin’s room during nap time. We were not sure how long Bingo would stay in there, but he was cuddled up with Gavin for over an hour. Bingo is the best dog!

Wild Animal!

Michelle March 13th, 2010

Chalee got Uncle Scott a bear for Christmas. That darn bear was trying to eat my barbeque chicken!

Dreamin’ Big

Michelle March 1st, 2010

This is why Daddy should not be allowed to take Gavin to the Auto parts store…

Lego Master

Michelle February 21st, 2010

Gavin has acquired a lot of Legos. And, I am ok with that. You can see the wheels turning in his head when he is playing with them. Watching and listening to him play is a whole new experience as he gets older.

Gavin and Scott had some Lego Time on Sunday.

Super Bowl Sunday

Michelle February 9th, 2010

Ouch! That hurt!

I believe that if the Colts would have played the second half… We would have won.

But, we ate good! That is really what it is all about… Good food and beer. We went to a friend’s house and had tons of food (We could have fed a third world nation!). So, here is what The Hepburn Family contributed…

Pizza Balls and Chocolate Balls… both are easy to make and both are finger foods.

Serious Business

Michelle February 1st, 2010

Gavin takes this seriously… Brushing his teeth. He has beautiful little ‘teefers’ and we want to keep them that way!

Check out the faces he is making…

11 cents

Michelle January 31st, 2010

We have been working on cleaning out the garage. We have thrown things out, dropped off paint and batteries to the ToxDrop, made a few trips to Goodwill, and sold our old washer and dryer. Scott and I built a workbench and bought a shelving unit for storage last weekend.

Scott and Gavin moved and arranged lots of screws, tape, manuals, and smaller misc items. Then, Gavin put together bolts, washers, and nuts for Daddy. He was paid a penny a piece. He got to count out 11 pennies and put them in his car ‘piggy’ bank. He was very proud. Gavin said that he is going to ‘work’ some more today for more money.

String Cheese & Meat Stick

Michelle January 30th, 2010

Gavin was super-excited about his snack of string cheese and a meat stick. Silly kid!

Twins!

Michelle January 30th, 2010

We stopped for dinner at Mark Pi’s and Gavin ate his weight in food. He LOVES rice, shrimp, chicken, water chestnuts (‘the crunchy things’), and potstickers. When we were leaving Gavin asked if he could stay. He is silly!

But, the ‘twins’ picture is below….

Slave Labor

Michelle January 29th, 2010

We bought a new washer and dryer a few weeks ago. They are shiny and they stack and they are shiny. I seem to get all of our laundry done quicker. It is not because it is faster… larger loads. They are wonderful! We stacked them and gained tons of room for storage. The washer is a little low to the ground, but I have a 3 year old!

Did I mention that they are shiny?!?!

The things Gavin says…

Michelle January 25th, 2010

Mommy – Whose boy are you?
Gavin – I am Mommy and Daddy’s boy!
**I really just wanted him to be Mommy’s boy!**

On our way home…
Gavin – I want to ask Daddy if he is going to make coffee.
Mommy – I bought Daddy some new coffee today.
Gavin – Can I see Daddy’s coffee? I want to smell it.
Mommy – Here you go!
Gavin sniffed it several times and then…
Gavin – There’s no more air. I can’t smell it
**Clearly, his Daddy’s boy!**

Gavin – Daddy doesn’t have a mustache. He waved it off.

Gavin – Mommy, can we cuddle on the couch and watch TV?
**Of course! And, we did for a couple of hours!**

While we were eating dinner, Scott was telling him about his work day. He was talking about different projects and people that were working on them. Gavin pipes up and says, ‘Daddy, what are you talking about?!?!’ I was thinking the same thing! =)

We got done with dinner and Gavin told Scott, “I want Mommy to get me down. She is my favorite cuddler.” And, he is my favorite cuddler!

Heritage

Michelle January 24th, 2010

While eating dinner Friday night, I asked Gavin to be quiet while Scott and I finished a conversation. Gavin tells me, ‘Mommy, I don’t want to be quiet. I like to talk. I like to talk loud’. Embrace your heritage Gavin… You are a Hepburn!
