Hurricanes Game

For Valentines Day I gave Matt tickets to the Hurricanes game. The game was last night and we all had a blast. We got to sit in the lower level and we were pretty happy with how good our seats were. The game was awesome. The hurricanes won in a shoot out which Matt had never witnessed before. It was a really awesome game... after all... what was there not to like ??

Daddy got to watch hockey....

Gavin got to see the John Deere zamboni....



and stay out late eating dippin dots.....

and Mommy got to stare at the hot goalie all night :)

What Happened To Your Head??

Wednesday night was just like any other night until about 8:30 when it was time for Gavin to go to bed. We were racing to see who got up the stairs first like we always do. Gavin made it up first and then for who knows what reason he turned back around and came down a few stairs. He saw me coming and wanted to "win" again so he turned around quickly and ran.... right into the stairs.... OUCH!! This was a good one.. Yikes!

At least we didn't have to go to the ER.... just some ice!

We are still alive!

Sorry it's been so long... I got the flu last week and it really knocked me out! But we're better now and I wanted to post what I had been meaning to post a few weeks ago....

Gavin, like any kid I've ever known, really wanted a bunk bed so he could "sleep up high". Bunk beds are expensive, hard to make, and usually not wanted after a couple years so spending the money to make it happen was not looking good for Gavin. Sorry bud....

Good news though... Gavin has a very talented daddy.... so while we were at Aunt Nen's daddy made Gavin a special surprise.... and he loves it!! Gotta love the daddy who can make just about anything!

I finally won....

I must say that when given the choice between mommy or grandma & gigi.. usually mommy will lose out. So... when a special box came on the doorstep for who Gavin claimed was "my box" even though it did say.. "Stevens FAMILY" I shouldn't have been surprised when my boy ripped it open to find a special Valentines treat from grandma and gigi and stated "I love these mommmy.... you not buy these for me.... just grandma and gigi did!" Yeah, yeah... whatever. Too bad I've bought you the millions that are already upstairs but you're right... I didn't buy these ones.

Who would have thought some matchbox cars would have made his day like they did...mommy and daddy's present of a card a some candy couldn't match up to new matchbox cars... or could they????

See what everyone may not know is that I love these people:

because this time... their invention of the music card helped my present win out...... YES!!

My boy loves music cards! He will play them a million times and dance all around the room... for those of you who may not have seen it... here's what it looks like

So there... I'll find a way to win one way or another! :) HAHA! :)
