Two weeks ago we packed up, headed to the airport and made our way to Tennessee...
Gavin did great on the airplane. He screamed a little bit as we were making our way into the air. I tried to get him to suck on a pacifier or a bottle for his ears, but he didn't feel like it! Eventually he feel asleep. He was a wonderful traveler!

We arrived in Tennessee late Friday and spent the night with Gavin's Aunt Erin and Uncle Jon. We got up the next morning and we were ready to go. We had two vehicles. Papa and Mimi's vehicle had a UHaul trailer to carry our luggage, food, beach umbrellas, etc. As we pulled out of the gas station the UHaul got a flat tire! So that put our trip back a couple of hours. We were thankful it happened before we left instead of on the highway.
That evening we made it to the beach! We got up the next morning and went to eat Brunch at a local restaurant. There were some shops, so we walked around and took some pictures. When we got back to the condo we headed outside and hit the beach! Gavin loved the sand and water! He squealed and had a blast.

On the last full day at the beach, a shark decided to make an appearance. Gavin and I were taking a nap the first time the shark decided to swim close to the beach. We heard all about it when we woke up. When we went out for beach time, it decided to come back! People were running down the beach screaming "shark!!" It looked like it was only about 4-5 feet, so we thought it was a baby, but we were worried about a momma shark looking for the baby! I think we were all a little hesitant to get back in the water. Good thing it was the last day! The whole week was full of beach time, going to Publix to purchase buy one get one free M&M's (a favorite), playing games, watching video from Mimi and Papa's China trip, eating good food, deep sea fishing, getting pinched by crabs (Papa and Dada), pulling up for the first time, saying "Dada" for the first time, pictures, and more BEACH TIME!

8 Months

Today Gavin is 8 months old! He will be one before we know it! Gavin and I have been doing a lot of traveling lately. During Memorial Day weekend we went to Mena, Arkansas. My grandparents grew up in Mena. Gavin met family members and we even went to my Grandfathers Class Reunion. We had a great time! We came back and Gavin had his neurologist appointment. After the appointment, we loaded up with my sister and headed to Texas for the rest of the week. We stayed with my Grandpa and had a blast! Here are some pictures from our trip. We got to eat dinner one night with Adams Aunt, Uncle and Cousins. We had some YUMMY food! We enjoyed getting to see everyone and Gavin had a great time.


Gavin and "3 Pa" (my Papa Jim) Gavin loved the fountain, they sat there and watched the water fall for a long time!



I dont know if you can tell in these pictures but Gavin has his hair in a ponytail, ONLY because it was hot and he was sweating, he needs another hair cut! His daddy didnt care to much for these pics! ;)
