My Fam.
Well it's been a long time since I updated our blog. My only excuse is that I was teaching, and trying to be a mom and wife. Poor shawn, he got left out a lot. Enough about that. School is finally out and I could not be happier. I get to stay home with Gavin now for good!!! Yeah!!! Shawn is also out for the summer, and has started a internship down in Dallas. So much has happened since my last post. Gavin is now 13 lbs. 10 oz. I can't even believe how big he is. Here are some of the things Gavin has been up to.... Smiling and talking like crazy, rolling from his tummy to his back (I can't get him to have tummy time for the life of me. Everytime I put him on his tummy he rolls right over to his back.), he is losing more and more hair :( , looks just like shawn :), and the biggest thing is HE IS SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT. Thats right, I nurse him at 8 put him to bed by 9 and he sleeps until 6. Then goes back to sleep until 8:30-9 in the morning. It's amazing how just getting more sleep can effect your life. I love it!!! We enjoyed having some of Shawns family down for his blessing, and my fam up for Texas. Steph, Shawn's sister came down for two weeks to watch Gavin while I was working. What a wonderful blessing. We love you steph and sawyer. We are looking forward to the summer, and our trip up to Idaho/Utah. I'll let the pic do the rest of the talking.

Look how big he is

He is getting so big

So I've been back to work for two weeks, and time is going so slow. I've cried less and less and this past week Brent and Lori came up to watch Gavin for us. They will never know how truly grateful we are. It has been so much fun hanging out with them. Having them watch Gavin makes going to work so much better. I get to come home at lunch and give him lots of kisses. Plus I get really cute picture text at work. He's had so much fun with them this week I'm sure. Brent and Lori, thank you, thank you , thank you. We Love you

So it's been over a month since Gavin was born. I can't believe that I have to start work in a few days. Yuck! We have had such a busy 6 weeks. We spent 6 days in Utah and Idaho (b-day present from mom and day). It was so much fun letting the rest of my family and Shawn's family meet Gavin. I learned how hard it is going to be to travel with a child or children in the future. Even with Gavin being a month old it was a bit crazy. After all the flying we were a bit tired and recovered for a few days before heading down to Texas for Shawn's spring break. It has been such a fun week. I have enjoyed laying out, working out, and sleeping in. Shawn has enjoyed playing x-box, not thinking about anything important, and planning his hike for this summer. Gavin has enjoyed sleeping, eating, and being spoiled by everyone that lives here. I also celebrated my 27th b-day. Shawn got me a GPS system for my car, and hailey and I enjoyed a massage (It was amazing, love you Hailey), but I must say the best b-day present is Gavin. He is growing so fast. He is about 7 1/2 pounds now and his little personality is really starting to show. He is starting to smile at us, and loves taking a bath. He recognizes our voices, and enjoys taking walks in his stroller. In between all our travels we spent a few weeks at home just enjoying each other. Shawn has been really busy with school so spring break was just what we needed. Although I'm not looking forward to going back to work, we have family coming for Gavin's blessing, so that will be fun. Also, it gets us closer to summer when Shawn is done with school. I love summer!!! Sorry once again I put the pictures on backwards. These are from the Utah trip. I will put pictures of spring break soon.

I love this picture. Gavin is so small.
















It's 6 am and we are all so tired. 15 mins after Gavin was born









Look at that face










Well I know it's been a while since I updated and soooo much has happened. First, most importantly on Feb. 8th our little boy was born. My water broke at 1:15 am on Sunday and Gavin was born at 5:47 am. It was fast and intense, but so worth it. He was two and half weeks early and weighed 5 lbs 15 oz, and 19 1/4 inches long. He is so tiny, and I never thought we would have a baby this small. My Mom, Dad, Brent, Lori, and Hailey drove as fast as they could from Dallas and got to the hospital about 15 mins. before Gavin was here. I was so worried they wouldn't make it in time, and thrilled when they knocked on the door in between pushes. It was one of the most amazing nights of our lives!!! Shawn is such a great dad, and so much help. I'm truly blessed. We are all adjusting well to life at home, and I'm loveing being a new mom.








Also, about 3 weeks ago I had my baby shower in Dallas. It was so much fun to catch up with old and new friends. The food was amazing, I wanted tons of chocolate, and boy was there. Gavin got so many things. We are set!!! Enjoy the pictures of our new little one. They are a little out of order sorry. Still getting use to this whole blog thing. :)
