March for Babies (March of Dimes)

Today we "marched" in the March for Babies walk. We walked 3 miles in Onondaga Lake Park on a beautiful CNY day! Our Mom's group raised about $2000!

Here we are with Daddy pushing us


After the walk they had lunch for all the walkers! I enjoyed mine with my bud, Kyan.
After eating a hot dog, a salad, a bag of chips, and a bag of pretzels I was ready to play! I was a little timid at first, but then I realized how fun running down a hill can be.
Oops, fell down!
Mommy likes this picture of me. Once I fell I realized there were ants crawling around and I am obsessed with following ants around. Its my new outside hobby.

Thank you to all those who contributed money to support this great cause.

My 1st Friend

Although I have met many of my brother's friends, this is my first friend. His name is Cameron! He is a little older than me, 2 months to be exact, but I can already tell we have a lot in common. His Mommy is silly like my Mommy, his brother is the same age as my brother, and we both are super funny! As you can see, he is a complete ham for the camera!



Mommy Sally's

We enjoyed a fun filled morning at Mommy Sally's yesterday. We played with sidewalk chalk, fed the fish in the koi pond, and played with all of Christian's awesome toys!

First Cereal

I am 4 months old today! Mommy and Daddy decided its time to eat some "real" food! Boy did I like it! Gavin was so excited to watch!


Ah, my belly is full!
This stuff is great!
On a side note, after my feeding...I took a 2 hour nap! My first real nap of the week! Mommy said I will now be having cereal every day!

Dinner with 'Kenzie

We went to dinner at the White's. We BBQ'ed for the first time this season! We also got to hear all about their wonderful trip to Disney World! (McKenzie got to go...when are we going Daddy?)

Here I am with my girl, McKenzie

We decided to eat inside because there were tons of bees outside

Beautiful Day!

We have had quite a beautiful week here in Syracuse. It has been mid 70's the last few days and apparently reaching the 80 mark today! We have been enjoying our neighborhood park. Gavin has become Mr. Independent and wants to walk there by himself and play with out our help. He goes down the slides alone, and is now walking up and down the stairs. No more crawling up and down stairs for this boy!

Here he is walking there somewhat alone
Asking me if he can walk up or does he have to crawl...."up up"
All this playing got me tired
Jake, taking a siesta. This kid has not napped longer than 15 minutes in a week! But, he does sleep from 9 pm to 8 am so we can't complain.

Hotdog...

Gavin has become a loyal fan to the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse as we are getting him excited about Mickey Mouse so Mommy can get Daddy to agree to a Disney trip before our agreed upon date of 2010 when he thinks the boys will appreciate and remember it. I apologize since the video is sideways and according to our computer tech, Nathan Hart, there is nothing you can do about it. Take notice that at the end, you hear the beginning of our future American Idol singing. Yes, he is close to the TV and generally I move him, but this was too cute. I also love how at the beginning he turns to see if Jake is dancing...soon enough Gavin!

Army Navy Game

This weekend we took the boys to West Point for the Army Navy lacrosse game. Boy did it turn out to be a great weekend! Sunny and 74 degrees , good kids the whole time, nice hotel, and ARMY WON!!!

Anyone who has gone to these games with Mommy can attest to the fact that Mommy doesn't sleep well the night before the game and she is up "mad" early. Here is Gavin and Daddy being awoken on game day. Are these two alike or what?

Heres the press box at Army. Grandpa Jack called the game on ESPN, he's in the lower box in the blue shirt. Go Papa Jack!

The coolest thing of the day...the helicopter in the parking lot! Gavin wasn't too sure of it. Guess he'll be driving the tanks instead of being in the air. No aviation for this boy.


Aw..Mommy's boy!
Daddy and Gav watching warm upsMommy and Jakester




What I love about this picture is the guy sitting next to Aaron. He was a Bucknell fan, and needless to say...we were winning...no love between Bucknell and Army.
On Brave Old Army Team! Gavin got into it this time


But, the game got boring since we domintated the whole time! He decided to get a little cat nap before the tailgate party.

The S fell down.

Is that the scoreboard? Yes thats the scoreboard. Is that a six? Yes thats a six. Is that a 9? Yes thats a nine. Are you the losers? Yes you're the losers. Are we the winners? Yes we're the winners! Winners...losers...winners...losers! GO ARMY! (thank you Mr. Hering)
The Navy alma mater being sung FIRST!
And the Army alma mater!!

Yes, worthy of a double post. 13 Army Navy games waiting for this moment.

Papa Jack and Coach Joe Alberici! GO JOE!
Quite possibly the messiest tailgate eater ever.
It was so warm we had to strip Jake down to his onsie. But he sure looked cute in it!

All in all, we can't wait to go back! Beat Lafayette tomorrow Army and Duke on Saturday!
