Hailey's Graduation

Well the last of 7 graduated. We went all out for her party, but there are so many pictures it needs a post of it's own. Gavin was great during the ceremony and Hailey gave the closing prayer. First kid to be sitting on the stage too. I'm so proud of her. She is going to do great next year at BYU.

A little bit of this and that

We have been really busy lately. Shawn's best friend Chris graduated from officer school in Lawton, Oklahoma. If was really fun to have Chris be so close to us for the last few months. We saw him almost every weekend. Shawn was in hog heaven. They haven't spent this much time together since their missions. It was fun for me to watch them tell all their stories and make future plans. We love that family. We have also been swimming alot. Gavin loves the the water. I think we will be in the water alot this summer. Works out great for me and my tan. :) Shawn finished up his second year of law school. One more left. Woohoo!!! We spent time in Texas watching my mom's daycare kids while they were in Europe. The last few weeks we have just been getting into a summer schedule at home. We love summer around here. Shawn is with us everyday all day.

Blue Bonnets

This is a picture of Gavin yelling at someone. We are working on that. :)




A few weeks ago, we decided to take Gavin out and try and get some pictures in the Blue Bonnets. It's a tradition in Texas. (State Flower) I was hoping to get a good one to send out, but as you can see below this kid is hard to photograph right now. :) They turned out pretty cute, just not sending out worthy cute. This child is such a Miller it's not even funny. He looks nothing like me. I love it though. Spitting image!!!Enjoy

Easter

This is sooo late, but I figured even though I couldn't get a good picture of Gavin I still needed to document his Easter. This kid will not sit still. Every time I would put the basket next to him, he would dig in. Yea, 3 hours of church trying to get him to sit on my lap is so much fun. Anyways, enough about the busy bee. We had a great Easter. We watched conference, and were pretty lazy. I don't even think we got out of our PJ's all day. Gavin of course loved his basket that the Easter Bunny left. He has been playing with the plastic eggs ever since. It was sad for me to remember last Easter when we blessed Gavin in church. He was so tiny!!! I love the stage that he is in now, but I also miss a baby being around. He is getting so funny. Here a few cute things he is doing lately.

• He loves to turn on/off the lights or "Yights" as he says
• When I tell him we are going bye bye, he starts saying bye bye over and over again, and walks to the front door.
  
• He loves to wrestle with a pillow. It is so funny
• He is getting into everything, EVERYTHING
• Once gavin is up in the morning Shawn will bring him into our room to wake me up. He puts gavin on our bed, and Gavin crawls as fast as he can saying "mama", and gives me a kiss. Now that is a great way to wake up!!!
• He is starting to run.
• He loves being outside
• He won't keep his shoes on. He would rather be playing with them
• He flirts with everyone
• He has four teeth on top, and three on the bottom
• He loves reading books. Over and Over
• He laughs the hardest when Shawn throws him up in the air
• Still not a fan of veggies.
  
• He loves bath time, and never wants to get out

My list could go on and on. I love being a mom. We are having so much fun being parents. What a blessing!!! PS:I hate my camera. One of the first things I'm doing when we are out of law school, and Shawn has a job is buying a new camera. This one is not cutting it. :)

One cute boy

He did not want to stand at all

Trying to bride him with a toy to sit still
Bath time- He was so happy
Just a few pictures of Gavin. He was wearing one of my favorite church outfits, so I had to get a picture. Trying to get this boy to stay still and smile for a picture is way to much work. He was having a bad morning to say the least. Anyways, it also shows off his new hair cut. I love it. Enjoy

Zoo/ my b-day

My b-day night

All the zoo goer's





During Shawn's spring break we went down to Texas for a few days. We had so much fun. We went to the zoo, and celebrated my 28th b-day. Linsey came down for the week too. We ate, went shopping, went to the park, and relaxed. It was a nice break for me because I had like 5 other people to help watch gavin. I just go and do as I please and someone always want to watch him. It is great!!!! For my b-day my mom made a fabulous shrimp dinner!!! It was so yummy!!

Utah Trip

Everyone calls lins "Texas" so I had these shirts made

One month apart





Well I decided on Tues. feb. 23rd at 8:00 pm that I would go to Utah on Wed morning. Talk about spontaneous.!!! I surprised Linsey to watch her play a couple of basketball games. Gavin did great on the plane, and the day we left he REALLY started walking. I couldn't believe it!!! We got to spend the next few days playing with Linsey, Corby, Katie, Brent, Lori, Analise, Tommye, Brylee, and ofcourse Nana. We had so much. We hardly slept, and had a blast. I love going to visit family. I wish they lived closer. We really miss them. We watched two of Linsey's games, and then just hung out the rest of the time. It was a crazy trip, but so worth it.
