Time Flies When You're Having Fun

Can't believe it's Monday already!  Can't believe it's October already! 

We had a great weekend full of parties and celebrations.  And all these occasions were planned on October 1st for some reason and I had to say 'no' to a couple of get togethers because of the overplanning of events.  First off was a birthday party for the birth center where I delivered Gavin.  They have an annual party to celebrate all the little babies that were born there.  This was their 4th year.  After that shindig, I attended a baby shower for our friends, Aaron and Rachel.  They just adopted a gorgeous baby girl on September 16th and they named her Morrissey Adai.  She was just precious.  Then after that celebration, I was able to go home for 30 minutes to rest before we headed up to our old church in Palm Harbor to celebrate a couple's 50th Anniversary.  It was good to see everyone again.  Gavin LOVED seeing his buddy, Tyler, again too.  Then finally, we picked up Eric at work then went home to veg. 

Yesterday, we went back to our old church for their service and to officially announce that we're having another baby.  Yes, Gavin wore his "I'm going to be a big brother" shirt.  Also, we gave Baby Gwen her present for her first birthday!  That was one of the events I had to say 'no' to.  But Gavin was SO adorable giving her the present and helping her open it.  I wish I could've got that on video.  Then after church, we were able to go home, eat a quick lunch and watch about 30 minutes of football before we had to drop Eric off at work.  When we got home again, Gavin and I took a 2 hour nap (in separate rooms) which was wonderful!  Then my sister-in-law called to invite us over for dinner.  Spent a couple hours eating, talking and playing then we were off to pick up Eric from work. 

Exciting news:  Today we're going to start implementing a new strategy (courtesy of my SIL) to potty train Gavin.  We're letting him run free!  More on that and hopefully a pregnany update soon.
