Family Pictures 2010

As you can see we took our yearly family pictures and Sara did a great job. Garrett and Maddison are becoming so fun to watch together. He really dose watch every move she makes. Not really much to write about but a lot of pictures to view. Enjoy

A&M Tech Game

The highlight of my Halloween weekend was that I got to go see Taylor play against A&M. Connie and I headed out early Saturday to hit some tailgates and root on the Raiders (she roots for the Aggies) It was HOT but we had a great time. At half time I got to see Erin and her family and my Aunt Cathy and Avery. I am in Erin and Taylor's wedding in July and I always love to hear where she is in planning and such. I am mad at myself because I did not take a picture of her shoes. She has Toms shoes that she got painted red and black with POTTS #12 on the side. They are soooo cute. Even though Tech lost I had a great time for my first time at Kyle Field.

Halloween 2010

(Maddi and Channing)

We had a great time this year dressing up for Halloween. Maddison was an Elephant and Garrett a Circus Peanut. They looked so cute together. We headed up to church for Trunk or Treat and loved seeing all the fun costumes. Then we headed home to actually Trick or Treat this year. This was the first year that we actually did the real thing. Here are a few pictures from the evening. ENJOY!!

7 months

Well here is the last 7 months, and how Garrett has grown like a weed. He is such a happy baby, as long as he has a full belly. As I sit here on the computer he is all over the floor. I am betting he will be crawling by the end of the week, if not tonight. That is how close he is. I will try to be a better blogger.

Garrett 6 Months

My little man is getting sooo big. He is now 6 months and has figured out how to go from his belly to sitting up. He loves his big sister and is all smiles when she is in the room. Garrett eats like a champ, as you can see he is around 22 pounds. He is 93% in weight and 90% in hight. He is going to be very tall. He has 5 teeth, and is working on one more as of now. Here are his 6 month pictures.

Maddison 3 Years

Yes it has been way too long since my last post. A lot has happened around the Gipson household. Maddison turned 3, and we had a fun party at the spray park here in town. Her 3 year pictures were a success and I will let the pictures do the talking.

Easter Pictures

We spent Easter in Tyler and did several fun things. Saturday morning we went up to our school for a huge easter egg hunt. Maddison got about six eggs due to her mom making her go with the 3-5 age group. Had she hunted in the birth-2 age she would have dominated. Six eggs were plenty when they are filled with candy. Around 4 we headed over to the Scott, Jana, and Avagail's house. Avagail in the only other girl in Maddi's class at school. The kids died eggs, hunted eggs, and played lots. Sunday morning we met Jason at church because he had to work Saturday night. The kids looked cute in their matching outfits and actually the whole family matched on Sunday. Overall we had a great Easter with just the four of us.

3 months

My little CHAMP did great taking his pictures this weekend at the Rose Gardens. Garrett is getting so big. He is speaking his own little language, can roll from his tummy to his back, and smiles at anyone. He loves to be outside and would live in his swing if I let him. He sleeps fairly well, usually gets up at least once. We started cereal with a spoon due to acid reflex, and he is a huge fan. 15 pounds and REALLY long. Happy 3 months Brother!!

Garrett turned two months and he is growing so fast. He still sleeps a lot during the day but has not conquered the entire night yet. He weighed 11.14 and 23 inches long. 65 percentile in hight so I think he is going to be tall and skinny.Maddison still does not want to have much to do with him, but she is good to play by her self when I am busy with him. Jason and I are headed to Winter Park CO next week to ski with a group from church. The kiddos are staying with my parents and I am sure they will have lots of fun. I will try to take lots of pictures so that I can post. Take Care.

Wow how time flies when you have two children to care for. Garrett turned one month yesterday and is growing like a weed. He is still not on a regular schedule and waking up at least twice each night. Maddison is a big help but only when it is her idea. She tries to share her thumb with brother but has quickly found out that it taste different after brother has tried it out. He does not like to be in his bed and loves to be held all the time. I am trying to put him in his bed on his boppy while he is awake to get him used to being in his bed.

I thought I knew what to expect with child number 2, but they are so different it has not been so easy.
