Pictures from October

Here is Mike and Gavin on the tractor at Bates Nut Farm, our yearly pre-Halloween tradition. It is a really cool place!


We decided to take Gavin's Halloween card picture at Bates Nut Farm but couldn't get a good enough picture...... then we lost the costume at the farm wooops!


Mad dash to get a new costume....

Ok, meerkat it is!


He had such a good time running around in his costume at the park!


Taking a time out with Uncle Zach


Gavin made us a cute Halloween poster at his playdate

Roger Nestie From First Team Real Estate

I am editing this on August 30th, 2009 due to threats. We had a very bad experience dealing with Roger and I posted what happened and how it affected my family last year. Normally I would fight back because I believe that when you have a truly awful experience it is your responsibility to review the service or product and let other people know so no one else has to go through it. But I am pregnant, have a beautiful little boy, and a wonderful upstanding husband and don't want them in any danger. So I have removed the original post.

If you have googled looking for information or references I would like to commend you, and unfortunately right now there aren't any review sites on realtors, so unless you have a recommendation from a friend, you kind of go in blind. Please contact me if you would like more information - if this is Roger, I did what you asked, instead of going to one of the many lawyers in our family, so please just leave us alone.

Into the Next Size

So as most of you know Gavin is growing like a weed and he has outgrown all of his cloth diaper covers, so we had to get him some size in size large. Here he is showing off his coveres from Mudshrimps and from Berry Imperfect Designs




Chicks think this is sexy













Hey mom! I want to see the camera!


Oh the terrible twos are starting early!

My First Picture

My first time actually coloring without attempting to eat the crayons! For some reason I prefer to draw using the bottom end of the crayola.

Playwerx

Today we went to Playwerx and Gavin had a blast. They have a special little area just for toddlers and Gavin was amazing! They had these huge steps to get up to the slide and Gavin was a pro! I was worried it was too advanced for him...... some of the three year olds were struggling, but he mastered it! My little athlete.







Once he is old enough to go on the big structure unattended I can sit and enjoy some coffee, play on my laptop and relax while he plays. It is a great place!

4th of July!

Well, 4th of July was a very crazy day! We met Gavin's Nonnie and Marty at Downtown Disney for lunch where he had a lot of fun and got some adorable Nemo toys.


Then we went up to Fullerton HS so Gavin could play with Uncle David. Unfortunately Uncle David was really busy setting up for a 4th of July fair so we didn't get any pictures with him. But here he is playing with some of the flag decorations.



Afterwards we went to a birthday party for Gavin's friend Colin in Laguna Niguel. We had a great time, but unfortunately didn't take any pictures.
