Quick Update

We had a great visit with Dr. Holladay this morning. Little man is weighing in at 16 lbs 1 oz and 25 1/2 inches long! He's in the 75% for both. Our little piggy has reached the max amount of formula she wants for him to intake so we will be starting cereal and adding veggies in the near future! Oh we will miss the days of bottles only!

Gavin got his second round of vaccines. He slept through the first two but the third woke him with just a small cry! He is such a trooper! We are blessed with such a sweet baby...just pray he stays this way :)

He almost....almost finished the roll from back to tummy at the doctor's office..won't be long before he is mobile! In the past two weeks, he has changed so much. He is enjoying is jumper and exersaucer even more...so many more coos and jibbering and just all around playfulness has increased. Enjoying every moment of it!

4 Months

It's been awhile since I have posted but it's been a busy few weeks. I returned to work just over a month ago and we seem to have found a routine. Gavin really enjoys school and has a wonderful set of caregivers. He is in a room full of girls! Girls that make two of him!

We have survived his first cold for Gavin to turn around and have allergies from all the pollen. We ventured south for the first time Easter weekend since Matt had to work and enjoyed a visit with my parents, aunt and uncle, and Papa. Papa was so happy to finally meet his great grandson!


Oh the mischief to come...


Feeling the grass..he wants to walk so bad!


In the past few weeks, his sweet personality has been blooming. He is so calm, happy, and full of smiles! So Nosy! He wants to sit up or be walked around constantly...I think we are going to skip rolling over all together! He continues to love his swing and has a hard time waking from napping in it :)


Just woke up....sleepy eyes...








The blanket in the picture below was made by a good friend Lisa. Gavin has become attached to it. He loves putting his fingers through the little holes. You can give it to him when he's fussy and he calms down. I know its early but I think we have found his "blankie" and the daycare ladies ask that we bring it everyday :)




And for the Grandmas...
