One night, while Dave and I were eating dinner, the boys were sitting together watching a show... The next thing we know, Braiden says, "I'm holding Gavin Michael!" We looked over to see this! Sorry it's blurry, I was in a hurry to grab Gavin :-)
At the beginning of February some of my wonderful friends came to visit and meet Gavin Michael. It was so wonderful getting to spend time with Auntie J, Amanda, and Lauren. Thank you all for coming!
(Sorry for the sideways pictures! The blog keeps rotating my pictures randomly and I can not fix them. If anyone reading this knows how to fix my problem... HELP!)
Last year, I took Braiden to a circus. It was a little one put on by a local group. At the end, he looked at me and said, "Momma, there were no elephants!" My poor baby knows there are supposed to be elephants at the circus! Thank goodness for his Gigi! She took Braiden to the one and only "real" circus in January and he loved it!
Back in January we were receiving a bunch of wonderful gifts for Gavin and his big brother. One of those gifts came in a nice brown box and was from The Powell's. We absolutely loved the gifts!
However, ATTENTION Grandma Miki... If ever you send packing peanuts to our house again, you will receive a very nice brown box back in return with a sweet little boy inside of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let me start by saying, thank goodness I tortured my first born with photo shoots because this second little boy of mine HATES cooperating for pictures! I took 127 photos of him and the ones I've posted are the only ones that came out half decent.
Enjoy a few photos of our little Cupid :-)
This is really what he thought of our photo session!!!!!!!!
And here's my big Valentine! This is the card that we made for his friends at school. I took a picture of Braiden with his hand stretched out like he was holding something, made chocolate candy pops and stuck them through the photo :-) They turned out pretty good for a night before project!
The photo, minus the flower
(sorry it's blurry... my camera has a mind of its own and was not working!)
As you can see, neither of my little men felt like cooperating. The best I could do for a picture of my Valentine's...
Before my Mom headed back home, we decided to attempt a photo session with Gavin. He was not thrilled with the idea and didn't cooperate. Here are just a few pictures we snapped ;-)
Smiling in his sleep... this was before we started to move him all around and make him mad! Ten tiny toes 2 weeks old Gavin Michael

Comfy in Mommy's arms
And of course... The cutest big brother there is :-)
