Happy Birthday Dylan!

Today we headed up to the city (The SF city;) for Dylan's first birthday party. It was a lot of fun, and the boys had a blast. LOTS of Chinese food and there was also a balloon guy there to make the kids fun things. Happy Birthday Dylan!

Important day to remember *Austin Sleeps!

The past two days, baby Austin has slept in until 7:15 AM!!! SEVEN FIFTEEN!!! This is a good two hours later than normal. Just had to write this down because its probably over, but it was heaven on earth while it lasted!

Heater repair men

Last night our heater stopped working. Daddy fixed it (So thankful to have a husband who knows how to fix things!) but we needed to call the heater repair man to come replace a part that we don't have (and can't get). They showed up this morning, and Gavin was ready to help. He ran and got his tool bag, and set up his tools to help. They were very good with him, and even used some of Gavin's tools because they knew he wanted to help so bad. Gavin showed them how to take the heater panels off to get inside, and he explained to them that it is "dangerous, because its VERY hot inside!" :)

Time for a new pet?

Toby is here for a few months, but after he goes home it may be time for a new pet. The boys have so much fun with him, and he is so so good with them. He likes to sleep with Gavin, its adorable. :)

Wintertime at Mountain School

Here are some pictures of this winter at school. I just love how much Gavin is learning, and more importantly, how much fun he is having. He just loves school, and is so happy there. 

Grocery helper

When we go to the grocery, Gavin gets his own cart and fills it. He has a list (in his head) and he recites it over and over as we are shopping. Every once in a while he sees something and adds it to his mental list. (like brownie mix and frozen waffles) but that's fine with me, because he really does help! He gets most of the produce and always picks the milk, eggs, and yogurt.

Where is Austin?

This is a common question we say all day long. Austin is insane! He is SUCH a fast baby, and he can climb into or up on something in seconds!

We can usually find him on a chair, table, couch, or bed. Or we find him in a cabinet, toilet, or under a bed. That's right, in the toilet. He LOVES to get in the toilet. Thankfully we have learned to close the bathroom doors, but man, he is fast! 

Those of you that know us, know that we never baby proofed for Gavin. Although he was a very busy baby, he always listened when we said no. He never put his hands in the toilet....Austin? Not so much! This child loves to do whatever we tell him not to! 

He gets in to EVERYTHING! Food, toys, what ever is around him, he is into. Makes a HUGE mess, and just laughs. 

I really have my work cut out for me. Thank you Austin for keeping me on my toes;)
