1 YEAR OLD!!!

12 months ... 1 year! I can't believe that it has been an entire year since Gavin was born! What a crazy but exciting year for us all.

Who knew that this ...
... would turn in to this!
I know I am extremely behind in posting this so I will try to remember all of his stats and fun things that he was doing at 12 months.

Weight: 24 lbs. - 70%
Height: 30 1/2 in - 75%
Head: 47 1/2 cm - 75%

Gavin is so much fun right now. He is all over the place. At 12 months he was standing all on his own. He will walk along the furniture but won't quite take a step on his own yet. He loves to walk while you hold his hands. He is so stable and loves to stand.

He is still a great eater. Avocados are his absolute favorite!! He eats basically everything and loves it all. I am so grateful to have a good eater.

He is still taking great naps. I try to only let him sleep for about an hour in the morning so that he will still take a good afternoon nap. He sleeps through the night without any problems as well.

He is becoming a lot more independent and enjoys playing on his own. He is getting so big and we are loving every minute that we have with him.

He is such a happy little guy. Now that he is trying to get around more he is falling down quite a bit. But he never cries and he just gets right back up and continues on. While I was taking these pictures he fell as he was walking along the ottoman and he just found some toys that were on the ground by him, picked them up and started playing. He makes the best out of every situation!
He was very excited to turn 1 and celebrate his fun day! We had 3 birthday parties for him so I will post about those later this week!


We are so grateful to have Gavin in our lives. We can't imagine our life without him!

Uhh... we score a lot of points...

So the Utes played two more games. I apologize to my many dedicated readers (Joe, Tom and my Red Aunt) for my lack of reviews, given the superior play of the Utes in that span.


Let's get to it:

Iowa State:

This game was pretty amazing to watch. The Utes went on the road and basically only this describes the game. The utes are pretty amazing, and just rolled in this game. My mother was receiving an award this day, and was at the tds game. Something like "greatest graduate from byu ever" or something. She messaged me during the game, asking me what the score of the Utah game was. It was incredible to write back that the utes had scored nearly 60 points through 3 quarters. The Utes had a 31 point run in the second quarter. It was amazing.


The awards:
  • Horses envy this type of speed: Reggie Dunn (runs a 4.28 40...that's just sick).
  • The Machine award: Eddie Wide (3tds on the day).
  • Another day at the office award: Shaky!
  • Jersey award: Brandon Burton. Guy is as good as billed.

Wyoming Game:

Game was a little ugly, but the utes still just owned the game. To tell you how good the utes are: the O-Line was upset that they gave up the first sack (by the starters) this year. That's amazing. I love that this makes them mad. Reminds me of...me and ...my dad. We were that good, only not 300+ lbs and on scholarship. Keep it up hogs.

The awards:

  • Work horse award (not the reggie dunn award): Matt Asiata
  • Excellent work award: Joe Phillips (despite the PAT).
  • Jersey I'd buy: K Sitake (technically no jersey, but still).

Go UTES!

Baby Moses

If I saw this baby floating down a river, I would pick him up and keep him.

Slightly gritty texture

We spent the weekend in Laguna. Relaxing, watching Conference, and eating sand.

(Please ignore the bikini girl in the background!)

Labor Day = Beach Day!

Our ward was having a little beach party on Labor Day so we got all packed up and headed out there for the day.
The weather was absolutely perfect.

We had a lot fun hanging out on the beach ...

... and eating the sand.
