Aloha!

My friend, Ilikea, gave Gavin this cute Hawaiian outfit 

so I snapped some pictures of Gavin in it to send her way.

Look at this:  Gavin is trying to make the shaka sign with his hand!  How cool is that?!

Thanks, Ilikea, we love you!

Gavin's First Swim

 On Pioneer Day, we went to Nana's house to go swimming.

 At first, I was kinda scared of the water.

 Daddy helped me ease into it and before we all knew it, I was

floating on my back,

 swimming up to the edge to say "hi" to mom,

and having a ball!

Afterward, I was exhausted!!!

Thanks, Nana, for a fun day!!!  :)

Mirror, mirror on the wall...

...Mom thinks I'm the cutest one of all!

It's been so fun to see Gavin reach certain milestones in his development.  About a week ago, he rolled over from front to back but has only done it one other time.  (He's a pretty big boy, so I'm guessing it will take a while before he's able to roll from back to front.)  He will now push away the bottle when he's finished with it, his fine motor skills have increased where he can grab onto things much more easily, and he LOVES to look at himself in the mirror!  When he first sees himself, he gives a look of astonishment then eventually smiles at himself - relishing in his moment of vanity.  :)

Les Miserables

 Matt has always wanted to see Les Mis, so as an anniversary gift to ourselves, we packed our bags and traveled to my beloved Cedar City for the production.  (Thanks, Angie for watching Gavin for us!!!)

Afterward, I gave Matt a tour of SUU.  I heart SUU!

 Then, we watched a green show.

 Gavin loved looking at all the people.

It was such a nice, little "stay-cation."  (Totally my type of fun because I don't like going on long trips or to far away places.  I'm such a home-body.)  

Happy Anniversary!

One year down - an eternity left to go!

Drowsy Driver

 Falling asleep at the wheel

 (Good thing mama put his car in park.)

Tummy Time!

3 month old stats:

weight:  17 lbs 6 oz!!!!

height: 25 inches

It's got craters, and it ain't the moon.

It's my poor, blessed foot!

Word of warning: NEVER, EVER take a shower in the girls' high school locker room.

Red, White and Blue... We LOVE You!

 Gavin's first 4th of July

 Sorensens!

Here's 5/8 of the great grandchildren Grandma inherited this year.

Gavs has been drooling like crazy, had diarrhea for the first time, is a bit more fussy, and always wants to be sucking on things.  Could he be teething already?!?
