Happy Birthday Grandmaw and Happy day Gabby!!

Sickness...why does it always come at the most inconvenient times. This past weekend Gabby and Cavan both came down with colds. Thankfully we were home, and not going anywhere, and we haven't really gone anywhere this week. Grandmaw and Paw Paw got back from their Florida trip on Saturday and so we celebrated Grandmaw's birthday on Monday. It was a nice night! Lots of yummy yummy food to stuff ourselves on, and they really know how to cook, let me tell ya. Although, I could have eaten all of Aunt Ya Ya's deviled eggs. They were crazy in sitting that plate in front of me.

While we were playing around Sunday night in Gabby's room, her t.v. was unplugged. Not thinking anything about it, I plugged it back in and then tried to turn it on. It saddens me to say, but the tv I bought a year before Clay and I were married, has died. It bit the dust, went the way of all those before it, had it's final viewing...*sigh*, poor t.v.! We had just put it in Gabby's room not 3 weeks ago, and it is now done for. Any one need some spare parts for a t.v.? It's sitting in my kitchen as we speak! Free!!!!! Well, Clay told this to his Dad, and he was quite sadden as well, especially knowing how much Gabby loved having one in her room. So on Wednesday, guess who showed up with a new t.v. for Gabby??? Paw Paw and Grandmaw!!!! She was excited, even though I do not think she quite grasped what was going on until it was on it's way back to her room! He went all out too, got the flat screen with a built in d.v.d player! Now with that, Gabby is not allowed to put movies in quite yet! I don't want her breaking it before it is even a week old!! Thanks Paw Paw and Grandmaw!!!!Cavan loves him some slushy! He also does not like sharing, hence why he is racing out of the living room! Ha ha!!

Some videos...finally!











I'm sure it looks as though I didn't go and get Cavan after his little bonk, but he didn't want me to hold him for very long, so the last video is of him changing his mind and coming after me...silly kid!

Also, with blogger not really wanting to upload my videos, I haven't even bothered to attempt to put any up...until I tried youtube!! Woo-hoo!!!!!

Here are some old ones!!! =0)

I still cannot believe...

That this boy is 1 years old! Well, actually as of today, he is 13 months. I still remember holding him in my arms as he slept while watching Gabby and Clay play in the pool. Awww, memories!!

Trying to stay on top...

Just a few more of our 4th of July celebration. Gabby and I raced through the water sprinkler a few times and then Cavan joined us. I was drenched by the time we were done. Glad I had clothes and not a swimsuit, especially since Clay decided to take pictures. I would not be posting any, if ya know what I mean...scary!!

This picture was literally the last picture Aunt Ya Ya took, before Gabby got her with the hose...we have know idea what Paw Paw was thinking exactly!
Saturday was Paw Paw's annual "Salute Our Troops" day at Clayton Homes. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Paw Paw got one of those jumpy houses and Gabby jumped away with her buddies!!!


Clay took Gabby to a Basketball game in Raleigh Tuesday night, and she loved it! Clay said she wouldn't take any pictures with the players, but he said she lit up the moment he gave her the ball and pen to go and get signatures from the players! She is such a little social butterfly!
Cavan had a hair day yesterday, and I don't mean that in any kind of womanly sense. He had a mo hawk going on. I didn't get a picture of it until it was all hunched over like the fin on a whale in captivity. Ca-razy!!!!
I love the way these two will "communicate", usually Gabby, gabbing and him just staring. =0)
I hope this means he will enjoy books!

Like my new do???

That's what Gabby said! I finally decided yesterday morning to just chop Gabby's hair! She will not keep it up in a pony tail, unless threatened...not with anything too horrible...hee hee! So, I was tired of looking at it getting all ratty and full of all of her food, or her chewing on it, and just went to town on it with some scissors! I will admit, the layers in the back were all on accident! I had it in a pony tail when I chopped it. Gabby kept moving her head as I was cutting, so wallah, we got layers! I've been trying to even them out, however I have not been too successful. It basically looks like the hack job I received last year, except mine was by someone who supposedly went to school to cut hair...huh, so maybe I could make this a business. Ha ha!!

Hanging out with her buddy after her hair cut!
Our 4th of July day was spent at Paw Paw and Grandmaw's house with Ya ya, David and Phil! We had fun watching Gabby and Cavan play in the little sprinkler toy. They are so cute and silly, it's awesome!
She was coming to give me a hug and touch the camera...Ahhhhhhhh!!!
For some reason the rest did not want to post tonight, so I'll get those later!! Love y'all!!
