Hangin' around

Chillin' with Daddy

Kickin' it solo

It's a tough life. What's a kid gotta do to get a cup of coffee around here?

Halloween Fun

Gavin had fun at the Halloween Parade at daycare. He looked so authentic in his police officer costume that they had him direct traffic in the parking lot when the parade was over!

Gavin's teacher brought donuts for everyone. We have no idea who ate them all.

We are very proud of our little sheriff.

Gavin was handing out candy to the trick-or-treaters with Daddy. He quickly learned the mantra 'One for you, two for me!'

Play time

We had a lot of fun with Gavin this weekend. We went shopping on Saturday afternoon and then spent the evening playing. He is changing so fast we don't want to miss a second.

My cousin Jordyn

Gavin asked us (in baby talk, of course) to add a post to let everyone know that he loves his cousin Jordyn and wishes they could play together more often. He sends her hugs and kisses.

5 months old

Gavin turned 5 months old on the third of this month. He is really babbling now and has had two teeth come through. We are always practicing sitting up and rolling. He still loves bouncing in his jumperoo and is fascinated by Kodi. We are trying some new fruits and vegetables and have yet to find one that he won't eat. Here are a few pics from the past few weeks.

We will try to get some pictures of those little teeth and post them soon!

WE ARE....PENN STATE

Gavin made his first trip to Happy Valley with Mommy, Daddy, Aunt Steph and Cousin Jordyn. We went up the weekend before football season started. You have to show him that he is PENN STATE. Who knows, 18 years from now he could be the starting middle linebacker!! Here we are at the Nittany Lion shrine.

Here is another picture of Gavin wearing his Blue and White, well blue and gray in this case. WE ARE...PENN STATE!

Four Months!

Gavin turns four months old tomorrow! Here are a few pictures from the past few weeks:

Here we are on Gavin's first day at daycare. We'll let you guess who cried

((Hint: It wasn't Gavin))

Gavin definitely enjoys his cereal!...

And when Daddy makes funny noises... ...a big belly laugh is sure to follow. :-)

Life is good.

July 2007

Gavin and Daddy on the 4th of July

Gavin's favorite cousin, Jordyn

We're pretty sure that it's going to spell trouble when Gavin is old enough to keep up with Jordyn. This is the face she will make when saying "Who, me? No way-must have been Gavin."

Gavin loves bouncing in his jumperoo!

Where has June gone?

We have been having so much fun this month watching Gavin change and grow. He is rolling over from belly to back pretty regularly and is cooing constantly. He really starts to coo when you sing to him- we think he is trying to sing along. He smiles and belly laughs more than ever now. Perhaps the biggest development of all ~~~drum roll~~~ he is finally sleeping through the night! We are so happy that he was able to accomplish this before Kristin goes back to work in a few weeks. Here are a few pictures from this month.

2 months!

We can't believe that two months have already passed. Everyone told us that the time would pass quickly---they were right! It seems like just yesterday that we were bringing our little blue bundle home from the hospital. Gavin is changing so quickly that we swaer you can see a difference each day. He is giggling and laughing more than ever and he rolled over for the first time yesterday. Here are some pictures from today.

Zzzzzzz...

One month

Here are Gavin's one month photos. We went to the doctor for his one month check-up and all is well. Gavin now weighs 11 pounds and has grown 3 inches--making him a full two feet tall. We continue to work on sleeping for longer stretches during the night as Gavin seems to have a liking for middle of the night snacks. These pictures were taken during Gavin's first visit to Ma and Pop Pop's house. Gavin loved all of the activity and is looking forward to going back soon.

How time flies...

Here are the pictures of Gavin at two and three weeks. It is amazing to watch him grow and change everyday.

Family

Gavin was lucky enough to meet his grandparents and most of his aunts and uncles shortly after coming home from the hospital. Here are a few pictures.
