We just got back from a whirlwind trip to New York to see Tim’s Dad and his wife Diane who live a little more than an hour North of New York City. It was a quick trip but we had a nice visit and were able to have some adventures while we were there. Those…
Ben is Writing!
So, Ben has sort of started to write some letters and today he got really good at “E.” We practiced together several times on his Auqa Doodle drawing pad and many of them came out looking more like ladders rather than a letter, but once he focused on how to do only 3 lines across,…
Cereal, Schmereal
Gavie (as I like to call him these days, it’s not a typo) had his first cereal tonight. And although a lot of it ended up down his chin and on his bib quite a bit of it went “down the hatch” too! He gave me some really strange looks during the first few bites,…
Name Change
I have changed the name of the blog again… I think it’s gonna stick this time. That’s all… : )
State-tris
I found this really cool site from a little tid-bit in Parents magazine. It’s like the game Tetris but it’s for geography. You can do all the U.S. states or all the countries in Europe, Africa, etc. Tim and Ben have had fun in the last few days playing the game and it’s really cute…
Slide Show
I just figured out how to do a slide show for the blog and did one of Gavin from birth to now, just as an experiment. It is fun to see how he has changed. Enjoy!
Check out my Slide Show!
Thomas…The Legacy
So Ben has already influenced his brother by making him watch Thomas the Tank Engine and I had to get this shot of them “watching” together in our bedroom. Of course, Gavin doesn’t really watch it because the rules say you cannot let children under 2 watch t.v. By the way, raise your hand if…
Baby’s Got a New Pair of Shoes!
Okay, so they’re not new, just some that Ben had when he was a baby and… they are still too big but I just couldn’t resist putting them on Gavin’s feet this morning since they went with the outfit so well. Not to mention he seemed to love wearing them since he smiled for all…
second attempt
Here I go again, trying to upload a video on my own… and this time… IT WORKED! Yeah!! It’s a short one of the boys this morning, playing peek-a-boo. It’s a little dark, but you can kind of see Gavin smiling and Ben “hammin’ it up” so it’s still cute. Yesterday morning I was outside…
