Let's get this weekend starrrrrrted

Can I just say I'm so excited the weekend is here! Finally! Well it will begin the minute I can walk away from the conference I'm working at. I'm ready to pack up my bags and get home.  It's kind of funny because our table is set up directly in between the desert tables and everyone keeps sneaking out to grab a desert but they look at me for permission! I can't tell you how many people I've had to tell to live a litle or treat themselves! Ha! It's interrupting with this very important blog that I'm writing. The nice thing about being here is I've been able to do all my expense reports (2000.00 worth- Ahh! I'm the worst. Hands down. The worst!)...clearly I haven't done them in a few months! Shh! AND I got all my follow up done for the week and e-mails caught up. Plus I got to do it with one of my favorite people ever- Kelly! We had a nice dinner at Troppos the other night complete with yummmmy martinis! Love a fun girls night out :)

We have a very fun weekend coming up. Well minus tonight but I have to say I'm REALLY looknig forward to tonight. We're going to stay in, clean the house and do laundry! HA! What has my life turned into?! Our goal is to get everything done tonoight so we the rest of the weekend is easy peasy. Tomorrow I think we'll hit up the mall and tomorrow night DATE NIGHT What what?! Carly is babysitting who Gavey loves and who we love because we can go out without worrying. Brybear wants to do dinner and the Lorax, this girl wants to do dinner and a night out :) Although the Lorax does sound fun! Ha! We are apparently regressing.

We're still not sure where we want to live. DeWItt?! Holt?! Mason?! What?? Ahhh. It's kind of fun because we're in a good position where we can just take our time until we find exactly what we want. The hard part is narrowing down WHERE we want to live. DeWitt is such a nice town, great schools, and comfortable, but all of our friends live like 20 minutes from here. Maybe they all just need to move to DeWItt?! Perfect solution.

What's new with the Mr. Gaverson Godiva?!

Gavey you are going to be 1 in a little over a week!!! WOO HOO! Big boy! You're nothing but fun, and I'm loving every single moment with you. Work is in it's busy mode but the minute I pick you up to the minute you go to bed we enjoy every second. You are quite the little soccer star, you love kicking the ball up and down the living room, and up and down the living room. It's so fun to watch! You also LOVE to laugh! you do something and literally crack up and then look at me and crack up again! Ha! I'm smiling just thinking about it. You're such a happy little guy I can't help but be happy when we're hanging around and chilling. You're so awesome and I love you so much!! You also are getting very good at waving and saying "Bye bye" AH! Adorable! You are offiically off formula which is so nice. Although I'm dense and didn't realize that Vitamin D and whole milk are the same thing! So you my friend have been drinking organic whole milk like no one's business. Although now I don't know if I want to switch you, with all of these food scares I really dont' know what to do. Ah! I need to educate myself a little bit more so I know what I'm talking about and putting into our bodies. It can be kind of scarey. Yikes! You are obsessed with waffles which make breakfast SO easy! You sit there eat it, drink your water and we're done! Perfecft! Quick and easy- my favorite :) Your newest trick is pushing anything that you can get your little hands on, up against the bookshelf and standing on it to reach the higher shelves! You also pushed it against the blanket basket, climbed on top of the laundry basket to the blanket basket to the entertainment center! Gavey! Alhough we probably made it seem like it's a good thing to do since we smiled, laughed and took pictures the whole time! Oops! We need to work on that! If only when we laughed it meant you were doing something wrong! Ha! We'd be set

Ok this is random. Nothing like a good conference to help carve out time to blog. Woo hoo! Ok I think it's time to bounce everyone else is packing up and I'm sitting here typing like a creep.

Where is my Baby Boy?!

Well he's been busy getting bigger, smarter, and funner (is that a word?!) over the last how many months since I"ve last posted anything?! Ahhh! Seriously! I feel terrible, and then I kept thinking, I need to update. I need to update. But the thought of that is so overwhelming. So here I am, taking the bull by the horns and getting it done. We're going to do this bullet style for now until I post again because I'm trying to get this written while you're having bath time with daddy. For some reason Bullets always seem faster?!

• You are the most fun kid I've ever hung out with! It's been in the 70's and 80's this week and we've played outside everyday! You love the park, swinging, eating dirt (Shhh!!), chasing after the big kids yellling HEYYY! and wondering why they're not listening, and climbing up the slide and then sliding down. You literally are so strong you pull yourself up by holding the side of the slide and then climb. Seriously Gav, you are my little iron man.
• You say Mommma and it's the sweetest thing in the world! You've said ma for awhile but now it's mommmma. Ahh. Love it. You also throw your hands in the air and say done when you're done eating, say Heyyyyy when you want someone to look at you, and say Uh-oh. You also still love to say Dada, Ball, Cat, and Cindy even thought you said one of your little friend's names...Genius I tell you!
• You gave up baby food about a month ago. This is good and bad. Good because it's easy to feed you because you'll eat what we eat. Bad because I just spent a small fortune on Plum Organic baby food and we have literally cases of baby yogurt, and baby food for you to eat but you won't. We'll just have to find someone who needs them I guess?!
• You're a little jokester and a lot of times you act like you're going to do something you shouldn't and then you look at us and laugh and run away. Silly Boy!! For example, you run up to the stove, act like you're going to grab the knobs, look at us, and then start laughing and you're off!! You also know what the word No means and you get serious everytime you hear it.
• You're favorite food in the world is shredded cheese, grilled cheese, and peanut butter and jelly
• You have 5 teeth and I think a few others coming in...and they are SHARP! Yikes! You started laying your head on my shoulder and than biting last week...After my slight little yell you stopped. Serves you right ;)
• Our house is officially on the market and we're ready to move. Ok not really. We're verrrry torn about where we want to move to?! We want to stay in DeWitt because it's such a nice area, but then again most of our friends are in Holt...Hmmmm...What to do?! We also just found out Cindy is retiring so now we will need to find a new daycare. It's the saddest news ever because we love her and she's so good with Gavey man...Maybe she'll change her mind?! I hope :)
• I'm a runner again! Woo Hoo! Wait didn't I say that a few months ago?! No, I mean now my distance is back and I've taken a lot of time off. I'm running about 8:58 pace which for me is good right now. I want to get up to running 10 plus miles again but that's my goal for this summer. Crim, here I come?! Maybe! Last night was so great...Gav I love you but your dad and I were able to sneak out for a 9:00 run after you were in bed thanks to papa and gram .They watched you while we got to run around the town after dark like the old days...it was kind of nice.
• You have a mullet and I want to cut your hair in the worst way but NO ONE will let me! Ahhh! Maybe I'll do it and see if anyone notices?! By then it will be too late and you'll be trimmed up perfectly :)
• I'm slightly depressed Desperate Housewives has 4 seasons left. I cried like a baby. Ok wait more than a baby during the last episode. I always had a little thing for Mike Delfino... ;)
• We went home to NY this last week and had the best time ever with gram. Seriously I wish we could move back there. I do but I don't. Ok this is what I wish. That we could move her here. Perfect!!
• FYI I literally have about 15 bites on me from trying to eat dinner outside tonight. OMG. I'm going crazzzy over here.
• Work is crazzzzy. Is it May yet?! Ha. Still love my job, but hate that I'm so busy. I've gotten really good at doing my follow up before picking up Gavin and then hanging out with him until he goes to bed, which is around 8:00. Then brybear goes to the gym and tanning and I have my time to either work or watch my trashy reality tv that he hates.

I think that's it?! Ok probably not but it's a start!! I'll have to go through and add pics later. My new goal- post every Friday. Let's see how well I do? :)
