it's 9:57..

and BOTH of my boys are still sleeping!
When does this happen ever?? I'm enjoying some coffee on the couch all by myself and it's lovely.

Yesterday we went to eat some chinese food (gav and dada's favorite!) and play at the pond before church.


I stole some kisses :)




I heard a quote this weekend and I like it. a lot.
Choose your love, love your choice
It's so simple but so true. Life gets crazy and stressful sometimes. I want to always remember that I chose this man to share and grow my life with. Things won't always be perfect but we are lucky to have eachother to lean on and get through the ups and downs. <3

Plus..we make really cute gingers together ;)
Today we are going to carve pumpkins..oh, how I love this time of year! Happy Halloweenie!!

xo, momma cait
Ps: it's 10:11 and they're still sleeping! wowzers.

Lately..

How cute are these buns? I want to chew them. now.



Sooo it's official. I stink at blogging. I take a million pictures and always think, "Oh I need to write/blog about this moment in detail so I don't forget!" and then...I don't. sad face. So here are a bunch of random moments and things that have been going on around the Martin headquarters.


We went to the river a few months ago for gav's second trip and it was SO much fun.
This is the only family pic we took and jiff is making gaverdeans look like dumbo. typical.


<3


This is Emmers. I'm in love with her. AND I get to watch her sometimes when her pretty momma has to go teach 3rd graders and her daddy has to catch bad guys. Next year (hopefully) her mama is going to JOB SHARE like moi and her life will be way MORE amazeballs.


It smells like October! and it's officially fall:) LOVE it.



Random texts from my babe-a. He makes me laugh.



 Love him.
We flew to Vegas for Frozen Fury (4th annual tradition) on October 1st. It was SO much fun.

Crystal and I at the mgm pool..watching a nice show put on by two "happy" boys having fun with those palm trees behind my head. oh, vegas.

gauntlet of fury.
So nice to have a little weekend gettaway :)



my little martin love.


Lil dean could literally spend all day outside. no joke!


We went to our first Kings game of the season last weekend. It was Gav's 2nd time going, but his first time understanding/being interested in the game. So precious.


gooooo kings. best game ever. Gav was there AND they won 1-0 against the Stars (Boo) with 6 mins left. {Tuuuuuurko} Quick had his THIRD shut out in a row...a new Kings record. They will obtain mr. stanley this year. Hubs and I may or may not have placed a huge bet while we were in Vegas.         {20 big ones..that's how we roll!}

Waaaay past my deanfriend's bedtime. But he was sooo good!



Husband is building me a laundry room. He knows the way to my <3.



Oh, the things that truly excite adult Caitlin:)


Sometimes I think (to myself) that I can't even handle FIRST graders for one more milli-second. I imagine walking out the door, going to my car, and being home with my baby boy..forever! and then they write you the sweetest message with math manipulatives and it MELTS your heart off. I can't wait till Gavin Dean Martin is six. Then I realize that I am only with them for TEN days a month and I feel like a meanie.

mmmm. He's the hottest. I want to kiss him. and He was my FIRST smootch when I was 16. and I was not that cute. I have pics to prove it. True love right there.



I conquered my germaphobic fears and did a mud run with my BEST friend Rae. She convinced me to do it..and I'm so glad she did.


filth. and I couldn't walk for a week. SO much fun!!



We recently took a trip to the patch. I love, love, love, the pumpkin patch! We have always loved carving pumpkins, and since for our second first date we carved a pumpkin together..Jeff proposed by putting my ring in a pumpkin and it was the sweetest. I can't believe that was THREE years ago!(Today actually!) crazy. Time flies. <3


My babe, me, and gav with his lil smirk.

When best friends AND a pumpkin patch come together, you know its gonna be a fantabulous time.


 

We play on an adult softball league on Friday nights. Gav LOVES his auntie Ryann. He is so blessed to have an aunt like her. AND just for the record: I suck at softball. Last week the ump asked if I was doing tai chi in the outfield. and Donnie asked if I was collecting daises. meanies!


sweetness.



Since being preggo with Gav, I no longer wear heels. I can't stand them  and I may or may not be taller than my hubs with them so it's the perfect excuse not to...so now I have a collection of flats a growin.' Pretty sure Jeff thinks I borrowed these from my grandma.


I just want to chew/kiss on his delicious cheeks and lips all day long. I LOVE this boy!




...and hopefully this month will be the month we make him a lil' friend. ;)

Sweet Thangs

The little man has entered an ACTIVE and exhausting stage. Mommy and daddy were definitely in need of some adult time:) SO..we were so excited to go to the Keith Urban concert this weekend. Jeff got the tickets for our second anniversary on 7.8.10.. Can't believe it has been over TWO years already! and we have a 16 month old! I feel like the days are literally flying by.



 
Here we are with the gavmonster before taking off for LA..
i love these two SWEET thangs SO much ;)


We dropped off the kiddos with Crystal's parents and headed to Lucky Strike for din din and drinks:) We had so much fun enjoying our friends and eachother without having to chase around our little ginger.



 All four of us with Lucky<3


Crys and I :)



Keith and I :)

I love Keith Urban! He is seriously amazing live and I had so much fun signing along to all of my favorite songs with a yummy margarita in hand. I think it's so important to spend time with your hubby without your little one every once and a while. I want to always put my marriage first and enjoy growing old with Jeff. We have so much fun together and when we have a great night out I am always reminded of why I married him. As life gets crazier and more hectic its good to know I have someone by my side forever. I think that is the best gift we could ever give Gavin. A happy marriage for life<3
