Santa Claus in July

On our travels today, we happened to meet a man with a lot of white hair and big white beard. Gavin didn't say anything then a couple of miles down the road he says to me, "Mommy did you see Santa?" I questioned him because I didn't think that I heard him right. He said, "Member (Remember) that man in the car, he had a lot of white hair, member Santa in the car." Then it hit me that we had passed a gentlemen on a side road that had a lot of white hair and a white beard. I'm not real sure why he learned about Santa but man does he have a memory.

New accomplishments

Griffin has learned how to stand on his own for a very short period of time. He gets so excited that he shakes his hands and become unbalanced.

I also caught him crawling. He probably started crawling like the video shows for a couple of weeks with him dragging his legs behind him. As of today, he has learned how to get on his knees to crawl and boy is he getting fast. He is a busy boy just like his older brother. Time seems to have flown by because it really seems like yesterday he learned to sit up.

Gavin and Griffin are really starting to play together now. There have been a few family fights over toys and Griffin loves to take Gavin's cup even though he doesn't know how to drink out of it. It is very cute though. Bath time is a blast. They splash each other and scream because they are having to so much fun.

Recently we discovered that Griffin has a lot of Daddy in him. He loves to wear one hat in particular. He is adorable. We had originally bought it for Gavin but he hated to wear it so for fun we put it on Griffin and it fit. Love it on him and it keeps the sun out of his eyes.

Tiller!!

Kerry told Gavin tonight that he was getting the tiller out to turn up the soil by the garage. Gavin said, "Daddy, you got to killer out!" We corrected him several times but every time it was "Killer".

Happy 4th of July!!

The Tredennick would like to wish everyone a happy and safe 4th of July!!

Fun times

Griffin has started to pull himself up on things and then he will stand there for a long while. He hates to fall down because I think that it hurts but at least he tries. He just looks at me like "Please come get me!" So of course I have to give in and go get him. Look at that face, how could you not.

I have proof that Gavin and Griffin weigh about the same. Papa 4 wheeler and Mama Kathy have a teeter-totter that they both love to play on. Gavin has to bounce a little to get himself to go back down once he is up there. Griffin just sits there in amazement that something can go up and down so quickly. They are so much fun!!

What is your opinoin?

Kerry and I are thinking of getting Gavin a bunk bed. We found the style of bed that we really like but we are uncertain of the color. Kerry likes one color and I like the other. Gavin has a room that is blue jean blue and Griffin has a room that is cabin red. The beds have to look good in either room. It would be a twin over twin and both beds have the same options with the drawer underneath. Kerry likes the cherry color, it is traditional and classic. I like the black, it is trendy and slick looking. So we need your help, what is your opinoin? Hopefully these beds will last Gavin and Griffin a very long time. People we have talked to have said that their bunk beds have last their children from young age to college age and that is our hope. Now it's your turn to vote.

Snowing?

When Gavin was questioned, "Guess what it is doing outside?", his response was "SNOWING!" with great enthusiasm. He was disappointed when I had to tell him it was just raining.
