More missing teeth!

My dear little one is now missing 3 teeth for Christmas but man are they growing in fast. He is practicing whistling but only occasionally giving us showers. Hard to tell but 2 on top and one on the bottom.

Right now he is very excited that Christmas happens tomorrow for us as we are traveling for the holidays and he hopes that Santa will have gotten his note and be aware that we are not here. So tomorrow we are opening our presents and never know if Santa will make it here in time.

So probably not much posting from here on out til the New Year of 2010!!!

Happy Holidays!!!! From the Storfs

Lost Teet and Christmas Tree

Since we will be traveling for the holidays, we have decided to go minimally on decorations this year and so Gavin is decorating his tree.

What a poser!

I think he likes my coke bears as much as I do-- except he keeps trying to run off with them.

Oh! Can you find Gavin?
12/5/09 am Mom comes home from a work and Gavin hands me his second tooth! "See Mom it fell out on its own!" What a cutie I had to take a picture of his toothless grin! We will probably have both of the teeth in by Christmas the way they are growing. So I guess it might not be "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth!"

goofy grin

"Mom, I am really not awake yet!"

Our back patio

Rob hired a guy to pour a patio/dog run/sidwalk for us and he as been hard at work against the weather to finish it but here are pictures of the almost finished project!! I am getting excited to be able to use it and such!!!!

11/30 Gavin's first lost tooth. He was at school in PE and was hit in the mouth with a kids head and it knocked his tooth out!

Yes the tooth fairy did find the house last night-- we left her a note about why there was no tooth in the cup!

November happenings

Backyard deck gone-- waiting for gas and phone companies to finish their jobs and then we will be the owners of a new patio. Just waiting!

Gavin and his turkey hat!

For our anniversary, Gavin took us to Build-a-Bear and Rob and I got stuffed animals-- me the moose and Rob the wolf and Gavin ended up getting 2 outfits for his animals. We had a great night!

Air Force Baseball visits school

Every second Tuesday, the Air Force Academy visits the school and shows the kids how to play certain sports and yesterday was baseball and Gavin enjoyed it more than the rest! He was overjoyed and hyped! They learned to throw, hit and actually play the game. Here are pictures:

Crazy pose

50th day of school and dress up from the 50's. Here is my reluctant greaser upset that mom made him dress up. "I don't like the 50's Mom".
Gavin liked this picture of the full moon because it looked like a heart so I thought I would share it with you. I was experiment with different buttons on the camera! Enjoy!!!

OH!!

Guess who's due in 2 months???

SANTA!!!!!! Bet I had you fooled!

End of October

The end of October has been exciting with snow and cold and fun!!! Not to mention Halloween!!!!

We finally used our Sportsman's Warehouse card and bought this cool camo jacket. Thanks Uncle Keven!

Time for yard work but it looks like that Gavin is having much more fun laying/jumping in my pile of leaves.

Throwing piles of leaves at Mom.

Here is my knight in shining armor.

HALLOWEEN NIGHT

I had to work so the boys had to do their own trick or treating. They went up and down the block and a few other streets and when I called Gavin later in the evening to find out how it was he said "Mom our street gave up on Halloween, they only had 3 houses for treats". What a disappointment for a little kid. So they went a few blocks and then came home and passed out candy at the house while some friends came over.
