Gavin meets Great Grandma Oswald - What a special visit!



There they are feasting their eyes upon each other for the first time. 
Look how excited they both look!


Great Grandma was all ready to dole out the kisses!


"Wow, Great Grandma is pretty comfy!"  
"Is that why they call her Great?"


Great Grandma with Gavin and Mommy


Four generations...


Aw...look how happy and content they both are.

"Can we take her home with us?"


"I mean it - Great Grandma comes with me!"

Great Grandma, Mommy, Daddy, Mimi, and Poppy


Then Gavin became mesmerized by Grandma's hands...it was like he was holding on 
and didn't want to let go 


Priceless moments captured in time...





It was truly such a special visit and Gavin and Great Grandma couldn't have enjoyed themselves more!


One more hug for Great Grandma!


He was so fascinated with her!  He knew what a special lady he got to meet 
and that she loves him so much!


A special kiss good-bye ending a truly special visit



Gavin's 1st Road Trip: Meeting lots of his family!

Gavin had the honor of celebrating Aunt Cornelia and Uncle Tom's wedding! 


And he was so excited to meet Great Great Aunt Erika!


Gavin loved talking to Aunt Erika and playing with her pretty necklace!


And then, Gavin got to visit with Aunt Leah!  


And Aunt Jen!  He was so excited to meet both of them!


And Great Aunt Carol too - they had so much fun!


And last but not least - he got to meet all of his beautiful cousins!  Ava, Gabriella and Gianna!  
We are sure all of his girl cousins will keep him in line over the years :) 


And then Gavin discovered how much he loves a good papasan chair!


"It's like this chair was custom-made for me!  It's no-spill and way comfy!"


Smart boy - who needs milk when there's beer?


"Daddy - I just want a little swig, that's all.  Next round's on me."


"...Shouldn't have had that last beer."


"But it was darn good."

Gavin's Fourth Month Birthday


"Tadaa!"


"I'm HOW old today?"


"Ooooh but that means I'm only 15 years and 8 months from getting my license!  YES!"


"OK, so I dig this 4 month old thing then...Sweet."


"Little help?  Sliding down over here..."


Don't let the angelic look fool you  :) 
He's a little devil sometimes...and we mean that in the cutest way.


"Who, me?"


"Must eat block.  Yum.  Taste Good."


"And now for Beethoven's 5th symphony.  Ahem..."


"Daddy, what's up with the penguin suit and, more importantly, why don't I have one?"

Another nice visit with Jen and little Calvin!  Look at him all snuggled up on his mommy...


Little Man looking all proud of himself....


"Couldn't you just eat me up?!"


"Yea...I'm tough all right.  Like I told you...go ahead...make my day."


Gavin chillin' on the couch


So comfy


Aw...our little man learned his first gesture!  We're so proud :) 


"Mommy, you mean I can sit and play outside in this...Really?"


 "Occifer, I only had two drinks."


Cuteness


"What's on the agenda for tonight?  I'm ready to rock!"


Spring has arrived!  We thought he might enjoy a little nap with the flowers and sunshine!
(see Gavin's new 'reflux bed' on the far right of the lawn...) 


Look who's not sleeping!


"I dig the view out here!"


Happy as a clam after bathtime :)


"You talkin' to me?"


"I love my Sophie the Giraffe!  Mine all mine!"


"OMG - that is hilarious!"


Silly Goose being silly


"Scrumptious...aren't I?"


Gavin loves his bumbo chair!


Our handsome little man is getting so big!


"Mommy hold on, can we talk about this whole bed time thing please?"


"Dude where's my car?"


Gavin: "Psst...you thinking what I'm thinking?"
Brooke: "I sure am!"
