Gavin's 6th Birthday

Gavin turned 6 years old on Monday December 10th! We had an amazing weekend of celebrating him! Friday evening we had his 'friends from school' birthday party, sleepover style! They decorated Pillowcases, played video games, watched a movie and basically did everything that 6 year old boys do!

It went well, no parents had to be called and they were sleeping by 10pm, which equals success in our book.

Saturday evening we celebrated with family, pizza and cake!

 

Monday, which was his actual birthday, we went out to dinner at the Nitty Gritty and to Campus Candy for dessert!

He really enjoyed his birthday and got some amazing gifts from his friends and family!

November

Holy Cow, Christmas is right around the corner! I feel like the month of November came and went in a blink of an eye, without one single blog post!! I guess I have a lot to catch up on? We've been pretty busy this month. Dave's worked a lot this month, finished up a HUGE house and did a lot of side jobs... He's Superman. 

Gavin started to take the bus home from school this month, I was a nervous wreck and of course I followed the bus home the first day. yes, I know, I'm a stalker mom! He's beed doing great and loves it, He even reprimanded me for waiting at the bus stop for him, because no other parents do :(

 He's just getting WAY too big!! He will be celebrating his 6th Birthday in a few weeks with a 12 boy sleepover. We're nuts.

Grant is just as cute as ever, being Grant. He has the sweetest, funniest personality. And he for sure keeps us on our toes!!

 He's getting his Canine teeth in, or at least I finally hope he is. I've been saying he is getting them for probably 6 months now. But, we can finally see that they are starting to pop through and he's been extra cuddly and has had some unfriendly diapers.

 I celebrated my 26th Birthday this month!! I had an amazing birthday dinner with some amazing friends!

I attended a Pentatonix Concert with some amazing friends - A highlight of my month for sure!!

 We celebrated Thanksgiving with my family this year. It was wonderful and intimate.

 Of course we do our Black Friday (this year Thursday/Friday) Shopping. Started at 7pm Thursday evening and went until 6:30am Friday morning! We were exhausted to say the least and spent most of Friday relaxing!

This picture below was right after he was caught him with Nana's tooth brush... in the toilet...scrubbing it! I'm telling you, he keeps up on our toes! But he really is the sweetest thing :)

Today ended the Deer Hunting gun season and my Love got a Deer!! I'm looking forward to some jerky!! 

 Lastly we are getting ready for Christmas around here! Looking forward to this Holiday Season!
