2 mths old

I cant not believe that our little boy is 2 mths old now. Its going by so fast by also so slow, I like slow though. He went to the Dr. today and is 11lbs 14oz (6o percentile) and 23.5 in. (75 percentile). He also got his immunizations, I was definatley very upset about today and just could not imagine having someone hurt my son but we had to, and to our suprise he overall did good. Of course he cried but very shortly and by now he forgot all about it.

He is right on track with his growth and development, but the Dr. says that he should be sleeping about 4-6 hr. stretches at night and since he is not he recommends letting him cry it out. I really hate doing that but I think we might have too. I am still breastfeeding and every morning around 1 am he only eats for about 5 min, so basically I am a pacifier and because of that I think we have to break that feed. If he was eating good at this time then I would think different. However we are going to wait till this weekend to do it since Kevin is off all weekend and can help me because I will cave in quickly.

Today we were also ordering pictures online from his birth and looking at those pictures was amazing. Its crazy how much he has changed in such a short amount of time. He just gets better looking everyday, people say that he looks like Kevin but I still dont see it but I also dont see me in him.

Moments ago I was cuddling with Gavin in his room and listening to his lullabies getting ready for bed and he threw his head backwards and noticed something on the wall and smiled, the only thing there is his Sailboat. Dont know if that is really what he saw or what but it was very precious. He is such a happy baby, right after he eats he just stares at you and smiles and even coo's, it is precious. I am in LOVE

Family came to visit

Aunt Karen and cousin Sam from Arizona came to visit and Gavin really loved them and thanks to Aunt Karen we were able to get a 15 min chair massage at the mall while she watched him, it was great.



Play Time

Tummy time with his mirror but he does not notice it yet.
Just simlpy HANDSOME !!!

Play date with Audrey and Austin (4 weeks older then Gavin)
Play date with Noah (3 weeks younger then Gavin).



Uncle Donny Aunt Kim's Wedding.

My brother finally got married, after being with his wife for 16years they finally tied to not. My brother had kidney cancer and had surgery on Wed 4-29-09 and I went into labor on Thurs. 4-30-09 and since he lives 2 hours away Gavin did not meet his Uncle and Aunt until this day.


Me and Gavin dancing on the dance floor, he did so good with all the people and the noise.

My wonderful and happy family.

We were a quite concerned about taking Gavin out and 7 weeks old for a 2 hr drive and a wedding but it had to be done since it was family and since they have never met him. However, he did really good. The music did not scare him and the only time he cried was when he was hungry or tired. He feel asleep as soon as we left, did not even make it to the Hwy. He is an amazing little boy.

Pictures

Hanging out on the couch and wearing my first pair of shoes - such a Handsome boy.
Sleeping with Daddy, I absolutely LOVE this. My 2 Boys.

Here he is smiling at me and Mama holding him.

First bath after his umbilical cord fell off.

This is day he turned 1 mth old and this is the first time that I got him to smile. He has been smiling since he was born but in his sleep.

1 mth. old

Our little boy is 1 mth old now and I can not believe it. He is getting so long and starting to get a personality. He smiles all the time (sometimes it's just gas) and loves to look at the light. We keep the blinds open all day and he just stares. We have been trying to put him on a routine since he was born that kind of worked but it is a lot better now. He is a very good eater, as I like to say he takes a bath in his milk since he eats so well. Speaking of baths, he loves them, he just sits there all relaxed and he loves for his hair to be washed.

We are just amazed by our little man and fall in love with him even more every day.

Kevin and I are great and thank goodness we are still going strong and have not forgot about each other since Gavin has arrived. We have had 2 outings to Walmart (woohoo) by ourselves and Mama (my mom) watched Gavin. We were only gone about 2 hours but it was great to get out.

We have got Gavin out of the house a few times but we leave him in his car seat and stroller, but we are not ready to take him all around yet, we are waiting till he is 3 mths old before we get him out more which then we will do slowly. 3mths is when their immune system gets stronger.
