Slip N' Slide

This summer my mom and I went to Pocatello ID for my Grandpa's Family reunion. They only have it every two years and each year I've brought a new child with me... weird! This was also Gavin's first time out of the state of Utah.

On the flyer that was sent to each family we were told to bring our swimming suits because there would be a water slide at the park. I pictured a large slide that would go into a pool. Knowing that Zack doesn't like to get his face wet I figured he wouldn't want to go on the slide. When we got to the park the family was setting up a HUGE slip and slide. I still figured Zack wouldn't be interested so I wasn't too worried. We watched some of the kids and a few of the Adults go down the slide. Zack started playing at the bottom of the slide in the water. Once the adults broke the sprinkler on the bottom half of the slide Zack was ready to try sliding. I didn't think he would like it but once he tried it he wouldn't stop!

Here is a video of Zack going down the slide by himself.

And a few pictures.

My baby is growing up!

Can you believe that it's already been 5 months since Gavin was born. It just amazes me how fast time flys by.
And of course it's getting closer to his 6 months now that I've gotten around to writing a post.

I must say I love this little guy so much. He's such a chill little guy. He's been okay sitting and just relaxing. But as always he's growing up way to fast. Already he is rolling over. If I leave him on the floor and go to another room when I come back he is on the other side of the room. I think he's ready to be on the move and start chasing his older brother. In the past month Gavin has also mastered the art of sitting by himself. He'll just sit in the middle of the room and play with his toys. It's HEAVEN! It's amazing how much more time I have to get things done. But now that he's sitting and rolling by himself I do have to make sure not to leave him on the couch by himself (yes I set him on the couch while I make a bottle... but not anymore).

Gavin loves to watch Zack. Zack can do pretty much anything and Gavin will just giggle at him. He really does love his older brother. I can only hope that this love continues and my house will be one of peace... ha ha with two boys my house will be anything but peaceful. But it sure will be interesting. Of course as you can see Zack is already picking on his poor brother. I left the room for a second and came back to this... (Of course I had to take a picture.)

This past month Gavin went on his first out of state car ride to Pocatello, ID. He did AMAZING. I don't think he even fussed there or back. It was great.


This past month has actually been alot of firsts for Gavin.

His first Haircut

His first Bees Game (minor league baseball)

His first Days of 47 parade (it was very hot!)

Gavin has been fussing when anyone other then his parents are watching him. But I think he's finally growing out of that. He just loves to look at people and anyone that is willing to talk to him he just smiles. Gavin is such a chunk and I love every squishy part of him. At his last appointment he weighed 18 pounds, so he can be our Linebacker!
