PUMPKIN PATCH & PETTING ZOO

this weekend we went to a pumpkin patch/petting zoo...Gavin really liked the animals and made several "moo" & "baa" sounds & of course the ride in the cart was more exciting than the pumpkins!!!

mischievous climber

With his sheepish grin, Gavin knocks over the laundry basket, climbs on, trys to get up the wall, then decides he needs his football.. it's evident by his face in the last picture that he knew he could launch it much farther from up there!

airplane

It is so fun to just watch Gavin play and the thought process that goes with it(which lasted all of 2 minutes)

serious thought of how best to play with the airplane

flying & making the appropriate sound effects that only boys can do

crashing it on the floor

'flying' onto our bed

deciding it would be more fun to play airplane on the bed

"mom, do you see what i'm doing"

mom said sit down

i'd rather fall backwards

this is fun too!

his own chair

our neighbors gave Gavin this chair and he loves that it's just his size!!

boys......

Gavin gets into my sewing box that holds thread, ribbon, etc...well, he found the elastic and Daddy (the clever man that he is) showed him the coolest way to use it!!! They had a great time with this new game!

Brian & I went to Zihuatanejo for a week...we decided to leave Gavin with my parents & we missed him terribly but had a fabulous time...beautiful views, great food, shopping dowtown, a local soccer game, boogie boarding (with a slight injury) relaxation by the pool, massages on the beach, Mexico's Independence Day Celebration, sea turtle release & amazing sunsets!
