Catching Up

It's been awhile since my last real post. Here's an update from the past couple of weeks. Gavin is growing, growing, growing. At the breastfeeding support group today, he weighed 9 lbs 2 oz. It think this puts him around the 10th percentile for weight...a little better than the previous 3rd percentile. But, I've vowed to not overly worry about comparing him with his peers. He is a healthy, thriving little guy. So much so that a couple of weeks ago, he officially outgrew all of his newborn size clothes. His legs and feet just popped right out...





Our trip to Florida was wonderful, given that it started with worries about Gavin's fever. He did fantastic with all of the travel. Here he is with his wings. The flight attendant also gave him a certificate documenting his first flight. He sure was the hit on the plane rides!


Here's just a random picture of him relaxing in Florida...deep in thought.


With Grandma Mary and Grandpa Fred...



And we had to get a few pics of him on the beach, even though he didn't spend much time outside. He was cautiously left inside during the sunny, hot days, only coming out in the mornings and evenings for walks.



We came back from Florida just in time for Easter. Here's Dad filling in for Gavin on the Easter egg hunt. Next year, Gavin will be able to run around and find his own eggs.



Here's Dad's findings...


Well, I'm off for now. While we have a little angel most of the time, he does have his moments. And he's having one right now. Time to fill that belly and get him to bed!
