Gavin's Blessing

Gavin's Blessing was March 7th, 2010. We had nearly 50 people in our home for Lunch! It was crazy but lots of fun. Thanks for all the help and food that everyone brought. It was a very special occasion.

My mom with almost all her grandkids. (Tietjen and Anna Belle are missing). It is Kiri, Bryan, Blake, Caleb, Addison, and Kristie. I thought we took pictures with my dad but i don't know what happened to them.

We had a fun day and Shilo gave a wonderful blessing. I haven't blogged for a while because I am still waiting for the battery for my digital camera. Thanks to Brookie and mom I have these pictures.

Caleb's 2nd Birthday!

Mom and Dad came on Sunday to give Caleb his presents. He got...."BALLS!" Caleb loves balls. He also got a new shirt that says "Birthday Boy!"

Mom and dad with the Bingham Boys. Look at Blake's face. He wanted to sit on the green bouncing ball that Caleb is on.

The toy that got fought over, the green bouncing ball. Blake and Bryan cried when we told them that it was Caleb's birthday and he gets to play with his toys first. (Sisters: does this sound familiar, "You don't have to share on your birthday,"?)

Caleb also got a Tigger ball, foot ball, and these toys. My camera was too slow and so he put it right in front of his face.

We got Caleb this harry looking ball and a monster truck. He also got a new mattress and he will be sleeping on a toddler bed now. In a few months he will share a room with Gavin in the crib.
We also bought a baby swing to put on the swing set.

Kurt and Jalene came over and gave Caleb this cute Train book.

We had Angel food cake with strawberries.

Here we are eating Cake!

Happy Birthday CALEB.

Thankyou for all who called and also sent birthday cards.

New Stuff

This is our new Table that we bought. It fits our family perfectly and still fits in our small dinning room. We got it at Kmart on Sale! We are really excited, especially because I love cherrywood.

We also bought the boys Bunk beds!! They were so excited. They take turns sleeping up on top. We were afraid that it wouldn't fit in their room because the ceiling is low, but it only has to be a few inches away from the wall.

I also bought the boys new comforters. Bryan picked a Transformer one and Blake picked "Cars," (he loves Lightening McQueen!)

Our Christmas Tradition is to act out the Nativity. Shilo, Jillyn and Gavin are Joseph, Mary and baby Jesus. Caleb is a Shepherd, Blake is a Cow, and Bryan is a Wise Man. (Mom was an Angel but she didn't want her picture taken!!!)

Christmas PJ's from Nana! Mom and Blake went to Walmart together for an outing, and came home with cute pajama's for christmas.

Bean bags from Bapa and Nana. The kids went crazy with excitement and absolutely loves them.

We had a wonderful Christmas. It was lots of fun and it was nice to have Shilo home for one and a half weeks. WE were so grateful that Gavin was born healthy and strong. We have been really blessed this year and look forward to the new year.

Coming Home

We are ready to go home!!!

Shilo's boys. Blake, Caleb, and Bryan like their new brother.
They all liked to hold him.

Getting a bath is never fun. Shilo and I worked fast so he didn't get upset.

Proud Daddy!! Don't I look like my dad!

This is a stocking that they gave to us and he has on a red onesie that says "My first Christmas."

Thanksgiving and Surprises!

Thanksgiving at Nana's House. We had so much fun!! It was fun to stay in the spare rooms in the apartment. Christmas Exchange!! Thanks Kristie and Kiri for the Monster Truck!!! Bryan just Loves it!

Blake loved his Buzz lightyear Pezz and Toy Story Book and map! Thanks Addison!

Caleb likes to listen to his toy IPOD. Thank you Tietjen and Anna Belle.

Thanksgiving dinner in the apartment. We had lots of good food. I hadn't realized that I cut off Dad.

Tietjen and Blake eating.

Here we are enjoying our good food, but Caleb doesn't look happy.

On Saturday we put up our Christmas Tree and some decorations. The boys had a blast and are so excited for Santa!!!

Bryan hurt his foot at Nana's house by jumping off the bunkbed ladder and bruising the heel of his foot. We borrowed these crutches so that he can get around at school. It looks alot worse than it really is. He has been putting a little more pressure on it today and I hope it heals this week.

Here is our big Surprise: PUPPIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, this morning we found Molly giving birth to puppies. She ended up having 4. We were told she was fixed and that is why I agreed to keep her. Well, now we know she is not, and we have 4 additional puppies to find homes for. ANY ONE Want a PUPPY?
