Gavin being goofy...

Now if I could just get him to keep the sunglasses on outside where he really needs 'em!

One day I turned around downstairs to find Gavin hiding in the dryer. Funny boy! (Don't worry the dryer door is totally broken and it is impossible for it to close on him. In fact, we have to prop something against the door to wedge it shut just so it runs. Probably time for a new dryer sometime soon.)

We have to admit that our little monkey really enjoys jumping on the bed.

The background on this picture was supposed to be a blog entry of its own awhile back, but then life got in the way again and it never happened. So, here's the gist of it: Mommy locked Gavin in the car with both sets of keys!!! Freaky! Thank God, a friend had recently told me that I could call 911 if that ever happened to me--since it's a legitimate emergency--and they could come to the rescue. So this initially horrifying moment turned into a memorable day for Gavin when the fire truck arrived and presented him with his very own fire hat and a "Junior Firefighter" badge sticker. And just so you know--though I hope that you'll never find yourself in this situation--it's a free visit, and the firefighters that came to our house were amazing, quick and so kind and gracious.
