Mother's Day, Moving, and More!

So its almost been 2 months since I posted on here. wow. So much has happened! We'll start with Mother's Day.....
For Mother's Day, Gavin and Davis washed my car. Gavin had a blast spraying mommy's car! He looked like a mini fireman.

Gavin took his job seriously. Davis had to wrangle the hose away from him when they were done.
Sorry my images are so blurry. I'm using Picasa to edit them and sometimes it doesn't mesh well with Blogger. I don't have the time right now to go back and fix them so they work better {its almost midnight}
This is Hayden hanging out in the car seat while I was outside taking pics for my craft blog in April.
Hayden started sitting up on his own mid May for a few seconds before falling over. This was taken May 22. {isn't his shark shirt cute?}
Hayden's7 month pics. He's got the prettiest blue eyes ever! He sits up on his own, eats cereal, peas, green beans, carrots, applesauce, bananas, and sweet potatoes. He likes the orange and yellow foods, but dislikes anything green. He says DaDaDa BaBaBa and makes an assortment of squeals, squawks, and giggles.
We moved June 4 to Windsor, VA...the smallest, quietest town in Virginia. We are staying in the Davis's boss's vacant house. {he got divorced a few years ago and they've been trying to sell it for 2 yrs. The home has plenty of problems, bugs, and nothing works. We will only be staying here until we can close on our next home in Carrollton.
This is a pic of Gavin a couple days ago. I had him help me with a project for Craftaholics Anonymous. I needed him to hold a piece of paper and take a picture of him, and well, that is so much easier said than done with a 2.5 yr old! I got lots of funny ones which I'll post on CA soon.

Funny things Gavin did today:
-I was busy cleaning and Hayden started fussing a little and Gavin stated matter of factly, "I'm in time out." Me: "You are? why?" "I made Hayden cry." I didn't see what happened and I'm not sure he really did make Hayden cry, but it was really funny he would put himself in time out!
-During one of Hayden's naps, I was sitting at the kitchen table with Gavin. He grabbed a pack of paper, announced he was going to work. He then proceeded to give me a kiss on my arm and left the room. {I found him playing on his trike in the hall!} silly boy! Now that he sees Davis leave in the mornings, he was mimicking him. So cute!

We had family portraits taken right before we left Richmond. We had them taken downtown and it was really fun. There were trains, airplanes, helicopter, buses, and trucks and Gavin was in heaven! Oh and the pics turned out super cute! I can't wait to show them off.

Sorry for being MIA on here for so long. Been extremely busy lately!! We are so happy to be closer to Davis's work. He comes home every day for lunch. Its so nice! We've both felt a load of stress literally lifted from our shoulders since we moved. The past year has been really tough for us and we are so happy to have it over! I feel like I'm on vacation having Davis around so much. I love it!
