Summer Fun!

It's been a while since I've updated, so we have lots of pictures! It's been a fun summer, we are definitely enjoying the nicer weather! You'll see all of our adventures below.

Gavin is now almost 9 months and seems like a little boy instead of a baby!! He's officially pulling himself up and standing on everything. He's been thinking about it for a few weeks now but w
ould always give up after starting to try, then the other day he just decided to do it all the way and does it all the time now!!

Gavin's language is also expanding very quickly!! He started a few weeks ago with "bababababa" and now it includes "dadadada" and the letter g sound and a very fun (and high pitched) "yay"!!!
He has also gotten more teeth. One of the top ones has come through and the other one is about to any day now! He gives high fives and loves to "shake, shake, shake" his head back and forth when you tell him too!! My how this year is flying by!!

Sportin' his new hat and shades (the hat he leaves on, the shades- not a chance!!)



The first time he stood up in his crib the other day- now he's like that every time I go in there!



Splish-splashing!




Gavin had his first ride on a merry-go-round this week. Binghamton (where Marie's family is) is the carousel capital America so we visited a park and rode one while visiting grandma & grandpa! Gavin was a little tense and didn't really know what to make of it!!

Gavin and grandpa splashing in a fountain that grandpa used to play in as a kid!


Gav loves his swing at grandma & grandpa's


Gavin really enjoys eating fruit in this great little mesh bag thing- he doesn't like it frozen, but he loves banana, watermelon, and grapes so far!




Fun at the lake
