Pictures to Celebrate

On July 18th 2010, John and I celebrated our one year anniversary.  It was a very quiet night.  We did'nt get a sitter so we decided to pick up Outback to go,  put Gavin to bed, watch a movies and eat YES our wedding cake!! (we froze the top tier)

It was pretty ugly when we unfroze it and looked at it! HAA

John was so scared to eat it! He thought he would get some kind of food poisioning!! LOL

This was our midnight snack!

Posing with our last piece of food from the wedding!

I must say, IT WAS NOT GOOD!!

We watched the movies Shutter Island. It wassss sooooo goood! Unlike the cake.

So tired after all that cake.......Happy Aniv. Hunny!

Then this past weekend we decided to go out on a nice date night, since we did not for our 1 year.

We got a sitter and prepared Gavin for bed before we left.

I'm not going to bedddd.......AHHH

His new thing is shrieking!! Really LOUD!

He was yelling ''Dada"

How cute our his Superman Undies?? It was so hot this day and we decided to give him a bath and let him lounge in his undies. <3

Walking Together.

     I've put off blogging for a bit until my family left.  So here I am.  I am pleased to say Gavin has taken his first steps this past week!!! One week short of 10 months.  I'm guessing he will be an early walker as I was.  He's also dancing to some tunes on his toys or TV, or so he thinks it's a dance.  Its more like a rock back and forth and a BIG smile.  He took his first steps as we took our step to raise him in the presence of God.

     This past Sunday was Gavin's Baby Dedication.  We have committed to Christ to teach Gavin all we know about God.  That he grows and acts with biblical principles.  It was a great ceremony and John and I felt so proud to give to our child something we did not have.  We shared this moments with our closets friends from church.  Which John and I call family along with my Mom and Dad.  Pastor Abney conducted the ceremony and Pastor Sallee a great friend of John and I held him as he got anointed. ( It was only fair because he was present at his birth!!)  It was one of those key moments I will remember forever.

Proverbs 22: 6    Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it. (NIV)
