Gavin is 18 months today! Man I can't believe how fast he's grown up. Everyone tells you that they grow up fast, but you'll never really believe it until they really do! We took him out for dinner last night to RED ROBIN, to celebrate! He had a cheese burger (of course). We couldn't take him out to dinner tonight because David has a softball game. But... last night was really fun and special.
Gavin is watching some tunes right now, Mickey Mouse Club House to be exact. I am making him some heart shaped strawberry pancakes this morning, yummy!
More Later....

Rain Rain Go Away!
We had a great weekend here in the Vander Velde household. Friday was very very relaxing, we just hung out at home in our pj's and went to bed early, something that is very common around here!
Saturday we hit the road to Neenah, It seems like we are on the go every weekend lately. I cant remember the last weekend where we didn't have something going on. Oh well, I guess that's what Summer brings, plus I love taking little road trips with David and Gavin. Usually we plan them around Gavin's nap time, so that he naps in the car. Its also a time for David and I to spend together, and I love it! For all you mommy's out there, you know how precious one-on-one time can be once you have kids :)
We had some pretty bad weather here this weekend, a few tornados, bad wind, and lots and lots of rain. As a matter of fact, it is pooring here right now and we just took some pictures of our lovely waterfall we have (NOT). The stairs to our door have become a waterfall!
The Showing on Friday went well, we heard from the realtor and the person who saw it, she said she liked it and asked a few extra questions, but now we are just sitting and waiting, hopefully we hear something soon, we can't get our hopes up though!
We have a busy week coming up, Tuesday is softball, like usual, and then Thursday we have Lily's Third Birthday Party, and Saturday we have another Graduation Party, our last one for awhile!
Here are a few pictures of our weekend! Enjoy

Please Sell...
So we have another showing tomorrow at 4:00pm. Hopefully we will hear some good news soon and someone will want to buy the condo!!
We will be heading to Neenah on Saturday for some Graduation Parties, Kayla Schuh and Jessie Volinkaty, Congrats to you and the Neenah Class of 2008! Good luck at Graduation tonight!
We are very excited to go home and see Brandon as well! He is doing wonderful, he is at home and all done with therapy! Seems like just yesturday I got the call that he got into the accident! But we are all looking forward to seeing him, and Jen!
This evening we realized just how attached Gavin really is to his Blankie and Nuk. I had washed his blankie because he puked on it yesturday, and boy was he MAD! The Nuk is another story. We were so close to being done with that stupid thing, and then when his cold came we gave it to him, and now we cant seem to get it away from him!
We cleaned Gavin's closet out tonight and put all of his clothes that doesn't fit him into space bags, while we were sorting through everything we came across a little pair of "booties" that Grammy had given him when he was a baby. He wanted to put them on, even though they were 10 sizes too small, it was pretty cute!
Well thats all for this evening, Gavin is about to go to bed and I am pretty pooped too, this humidity is rough, hehe, just kidding, I can't complain, I am loving it..for right now ;)
Cross your fingers for the condo to sell!!

Lonely evening.....
It's about 11:45 am right now and I am just finishing up my work before I go fold laundry, putting dishes away, and watch All My Children (I love that soap)
Gavin is sound asleep after a little bit of a struggle today to get him down for a nap. He must have been hot because he asked me to turn on the fan. What a cutie. After the fan was on, he went right to sleep.
Last night Gavin had a late nap and woke up at around 6:00pm. David and I had already ate dinner so (as promised) we took Gavin out for Ice Cream to Culvers, and all he wanted was a burger. He LOVES burgers, but only from fast food places, and just with ketchup. hehe. He ate the WHOLE burger too, along with some ice cream. It was so good to see him eating. He has not had a good appetite lately due to his teething and cold. But it sure was good to see him eat the burger. That's it for now, more later.....
Its is about 8:40 pm now and Gavin is sounds asleep. I am all alone this evening as David heads off to his 9:00 pm softball game. Gavin and I didn't go this week due to the late game and chilly weather this evening.
We also decided that this Vander Velde household is getting.....A PUPPY!! We have been talking about getting a puppy for awhile now, but decided that we are ready, we have been looking but haven't found the right one yet, we are also undecided if we want to get the puppy from a private breader or from an animal store. So...the past two evenings we have been going to the puppy store to show Gavin all of the puppys and play with them, we have also been showing him how to take care of his "toy" puppies! All we need is a puppy now, and boy are we searching, we just haven't found the right one to bring home yet!

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to share with you a website that I LOVE lately. It is called picnik.com. You can upload your own pictures to this site. There is tons of stuff you can do to your photos from croping them to changing the color, adding text, boarders, shapes, etc.... You should all try it out! I will post some pictures that I have done on there!
Gavin was such a good boy today!!! Everytime he had a dirty diaper,(which is 3-4 times a day lately) he would tell me and get his own "clean" diaper. A sign that he is almost ready to be potty trained (hopefully). We are going to take him out for Ice Cream tonight. Hopefully it doesnt rain so we can walk there and take the wagon, his favorite!
Enjoy the pictures.
