Drinking from a big boy cup!

Gavin LOVES to drink from a big boy cup. Ideally, he likes to drink from mommy's cup but barring that, he is willing to enjoy water from his very own. At this point he does spill just a little though....

"Ohh, is that water?""Ahhhhhhhhh"
"That was refreshing"
and only...ahem...a little wet!

Sweet Friends

Recently, we have been blessed to have Lil Miss "J" hang out with us once a week, while her sisters are taking swim lessons. She is the sweetest little girl and she and Gavin have a blast together. It is such a joy to watch them play together.

Mobility update

I forgot to mention in the previous post that Gavin is able to walk now, while holding onto people's hands. It is a small but significant step towards independent walking. :-)

Baby's first bleeder :-/

Gavin had his first injury yesterday. He fell on the tile floor and bit through his top lip. He was a trooper and only cried for a little bit. His lip bled for a little while and still has a little scab.

Easter "baskets"

Gavin had a fun Easter. He looked for Easter eggs at home with daddy. He was very good at finding his eggs and excited to eat the treats inside. Then, he opened his Easter basket. He got lots of small toys, including stacking cups, Little People and a Chewbacca doll.

Gavin's Easter "basket" from his Poppa and Tutu was a Cozy Coupe car! He loves riding around in his new wheels.



Gavin got an awesome Easter basket from his Opa and Gogie. He loves his mix and match eggs and cannot get enough of his new books!

Fun times from Easter weekend

Stacking cups with Uncle Rodger.

The reason that you don't leave Uncle Rodger in charge while you run out.....that IS a baby learning how to operate a Wii-mote.
Bounce and spin Zebra!
