Pacos

Gavin loves to stick his hands in his "pacos" (pockets). I just thought he looked really cute. What a big boy!

Before, During, After

I just got back from three glorious days in Miami, Florida. It was tough coming back to all this snow.
This picture was taken just before I left. Yes, that's our mailbox buried in the snow bank.
Obviously, this picture was taken while I was on the beach. It was wonderful!
This is the after picture...there is still way too much snow. I don't know why I was smiling for this picture.

Florida

My three days in Florida were wonderful and warm. I really enjoyed the time I spent with Jessie (a friend from college). It was nice to get away and enjoy a few days of the beach, ocean and sun.

Independence

Gavin has always loved choosing his own clothes. Today, he found swimwear and put together quite an ensemble throughout the day. Hey, we just make sure he doesn't go out in public on days like today.
I don't know what inspired him. Doesn't he look great?
Here, he's added his favorite shoes just because they go so well with the rest of the gear.
Oh, and the Packer pants had to be worn today, as well. Someone is going to have to teach this kid a thing or two about matching.

Birthdays

My mom and dad both celebrated birthdays this month. The boys enjoyed having grandma and papa here, helping open the presents, and eating the desserts quite a bit.

Pasta Night

We all had pasta for dinner the other night. Can you tell who enjoyed it the most?

In!

Now that Gavin says "in" correctly (it used to come out "nee"), he is into getting in to everything.

House

I found this house for Gavin and Reily dirt cheap after the holidays. Gavin loved it so much we had to bring it upstairs. His real joy is in keeping Reily out of the house. Reily's not such a big fan of that game.

Packers Fans

The picture is a bit outdated, but this was the cheering section at my mom and dad's house during the Packer/Giant playoff game. We all know how that one turned out.
