On Easter day we headed out to Grandma and Grandpa Mayner's house for some breakfast and Easter egg dyeing. Gavin spent half the time napping, so he missed out on his Uncle Andy and Aunt Shari's epic easter egg hunt battle. Grandma took all the pics there, so maybe I'll have some copies to post later!
We came home later that afternoon and Gavin had a chance to check out the basket that the Easter Bunny left for him. The Easter Bunny also hid some eggs for Gav, but Daddy had to help with finding those.
Gavin got some little board books, which he decided were delicious. Some plastic easter eggs that he decided were not as delicious. A Little Tykes playset that Mommy and Daddy played with more than he did, and a Thomas the Train that rolls when you pull it back. Thomas was by far the hit of the Easter basket. Gavin was enthralled with the train, and when he could catch it, he tried his best to kill the black magic that must be running this train by pounding it into the floor. We only have high def video of this, so that may or may not make it on to the blog.
Gavin trying to determine which eggs taste the best. I believe he decided orange was the best flavor...
Lately Gavin likes to try and ruin our pictures by making this crazy face every time, but the joke is on you Gav, you're still cute!
On this particular day, Gavin also wanted to just lay back and chill, man.
Just a cute pic of the Boog in his Easter outfit. In addition to those cute bottom teeth, Gavin is also cutting his top two teeth as well! Unfortunately, he inherited Mommy's large gap between those two teeth, sorry buddy!
I don't know why, but all day I kept thinking Gavin looked like a used car salesman. He seems to be saying "Have I got a deal for you!"
Just a cute pic of our big boy!
Although you can't see it very well in this pic, I got bored towards then end of our Easter photo shoot and put half an egg on Gav's head. He was not amused by this. In fact, I think he was embarrassed of his Mom's nerdiness!
Although we don't really have any pics of spring break, we all had a great time! Ry and I went to Vegas with a big group of friends, while Gavin stayed in Geneseo with Grandma and Grandpa Gillespie. Ryan and I had a good time in Vegas (until he got deathly ill and missed out on the last day of our vacation! :( While we were in Vegas....
Ryan pretended to be a casino employee...
Ryan and I danced the night away...
our friends got married and met Bob Saget at the wedding chapel....
and we met a dog that rides motorcycles.
Yup, it was a pretty typical weekend in Vegas! While we were enjoying our vacation, Gavin was enjoying being the center of attention in Geneseo. He got to spend a lot of time with most of his uncles, and even earned the new nickname Baron Von Turdmeister from Uncle Shane. He spent a lot of time with Grandma and Grandpa: going to church and flirting with the ladies, picking out some baby food at the grocery store, and hanging out at Hazelwood Homes, earning his keep.
Coming home to the little Booger was great, since Ry and I missed him a bunch while we were in Vegas. He was wearing a denim hat and overalls (I wish I had a picture of this, he looked like a little train conductor!), and when we walked in, Gavin started clapping and boucning up and down with a big smile on his face. You can't ask for anything better than that!
We'll have to do another blog soon, because Gavin is growing by leaps and bounds these days, and every time we turn around, he's doing something new. We're having a hard time keeping up with this big kid, but we're loving watching him grow!
Erin, Gavin is so adorable and getting so big. He seems like a really happy baby and I can't wait to meet him. Glad you and Ryan got to take a trip and let loose in Vegas! talk soon, Molly
