I'm Graduated!!

Today I finally graduated! It was a really nice ceremony. Gavin came in good time. He was actually due on May 1st, so I was really worried that there was a chance that I wouldn't be able to walk. But since he came when he did, I was able to recover in time to participate in this exciting event.

Tullip Festival

Today we went to Thanksgiving Point to take a walk around the garden and see all the beautiful tullips. We were able to get some good pictures with the tullips. While we were walking, there was a man who had found a snake. Braxton and Damon thought that was pretty neat. It was really ejoyable and relaxing.

Thumb sucker!

Gavin loves to suck on his fingers, and today I caught him sucking his thumb! I don't know what to think of this...I have a nephew who is a big thumb sucker, and when he was little, it was nice, because he was able to calm himself, but now that he is 2, it is a hard habit to break!

Enjoying the outdoors

Today Gavin was able to enjoy the outdoors for the first time. I layed him out on the grass in the shade and he took a nice little nap. It was nice to get out and pull weeds...my poor yard has been so neglected! Now that the weather is getting better, hopefully we'll be able to spend more time out there!

Tanning Baby

Gavin was a little jaudice when we left the hospital, so we had to go back today to get him tested. He still was jaundice, so we had a bed delivered that had neon lights that he had to sit under. It looks like a baby tanning bed. He didn't mind it too bad, but we thought he looked so cute with the little goggles on. We couldn't stop laughing!

Gavin Jay Losee

On Tuesday, April 17, we had a little suprise come two weeks early. That afternoon, Casey and I decided to go to the movies, since there was a little baby coming, we figured we wouldn't be able to do that as much. We bought our tickets, and were walking down the hallway to go to the theater, and my water broke! Being the geek I am, I did ask for a refund for our tickets...haha. We headed offf to the hospital around 5:00, and he was born that night at 10:58. He was 6 lbs and 7 oz, and was 19 inches long.



First bath...he didn't like it at all!
Getting ready to go home...

Dr. Liddle is a wonderful docter. Gavin came in good time because Dr. Liddle was leaving out of town on the 18th, so he was able to still deliver the baby, and enjoy his trip.

They are off!

I got my braces off on Tuesday! It was a long two years, but it was worth it!

Violin Recital

On Friday, we had our annual violin recital. It turned out really well. I currently have four students, Kaitlyn Jackson, Maryn Bement, Allie Fannin and Kristen Futrell. I had to quickly put it together, because I wanted to have it before the baby came. They all did very well. http://video.google.com/videouploadfinished?docid=-40456529641086847&cid=7b61f7e24906dce0

Happy Easter!

On Saturday, we had a little Easter Egg Hunt at my parents house. Damon had a fun time running around getting as many eggs as he could. His favorite egg was the egg with money in it! Braxton was a little unsure at first, but later got a hang of it. And little Kylie knew exactly what to do with the eggs when she found them (or when we found them for her). She would give the egg to my sister and say "Thank you", meaning, "Open my egg!" and then she enjoyed the candy. That little girl has a sweet tooth! She could eat candy all day!

Wingers

This is our favorite place to eat! Every time we go out to dinner with Autumn and Doug, Wingers is where we go...so it is quite often! We went this last weekend with Autumn, Doug and Braxton, and our friends Jess and Jared Larson and Mat Pledger.
