Eating, Walking, & Talking

2008-07-27T21:35:00.000-07:00

The three things that I just love to do these days eat, walk, and talk.

So much has happened over the last couple months. I had my first birthday on May 28th. We had a big party at the park with all my friends & family. We also had a face painter and a balloon artist come which was really cool.

A month ago I met my uncle, auntie, and cousins from Hawaii. They stayed with us for a week and it was so much fun. I spent a lot of time at the beach, pool, and eating at different restaurants. I have to say that my favorite restaurant is Wahoo's. The rice is my favorite just like my Mom's, but I seem to have more sitting under my chair then hers.

Two weeks ago I got to see Grandma & Grandpa along with uncle Matt, cousin Clark, and cousin Kendall. We spent most of the week at Great Grandma's beach house. I watched my dad surf and I played with all my beach toys.

Everyone keeps mentioning how big I have gotten and I do have to say that I am a good eater. I love vegetables, jelly sandwiches, and blueberries.

Sorry for the delayed post. Take a look at the photos and feel free to leave comments on my blog.

Love,
Gavin

1 Year Later

It has been 12 months to the day that I entered this crazy world. Wow, what a ride so far. The last couple months have been fun. I'm finding that I enjoy my parent’s food much more then the baby food that they serve me. Not only do I like their food, but I seem to always be hungry. If it is on a plate and it slightly resembles food, it is in my mouth. On several occasions I found that paper napkins just don't taste that good.

I had my first birthday party last weekend. I had a great time with all my friends and family. I want to thank all of you that came out and I also appreciate the gifts that you all gave me. Yes, I have opened them all and have already played with them. The highlight of my party was the cake. I have to say that was by far the best food I have ever had. I'm hooked!

Mothers Day Weekend was very special for me. I hopped a plane and headed to Houston, TX to see my great grandma for the weekend. When I saw her I thought we looked a lot alike, but she was quick to comment that I'm an "Irishman". Take a look at the photo and let me know what you think. We had a great time hanging out with all her friends.

About 2 weeks ago I started walking while holding my parents hands and over the last week I have been walking completely on my own. I do fall on occasion, but for the most part I'm walking solo now. It is pretty cool because now I can go wherever I want.

Hope everyone is well and please be sure to keep in touch.

Lakers all the way!!!!

I'm Crawling & Standing

2008-04-06T09:46:00.000-07:00

If you have not heard, I’m crawling now and it is pretty funny to see my parents constantly chasing me. To add to that, I’m standing now and on occasion I like to scare my parents by showing them that I can take a couple steps on my own. My new favorite foods are Cheerios and toast sticks. Don’t get me wrong, I still love formula, but I’m now venturing into other types of foods and making more of a mess….:)

Last month I went to Grandma and Grandpa’s house in Tahoe. I saw snow for the first time and went sledding. I had a great time hanging out with my Grandparents while my parents went snowboarding. I’m planning on heading back up there in the summertime to learn how to wakeboard, actually I need to learn how to swim first.

Speaking of summertime, I can’t wait. My parents keep telling me that we are going to be at the beach all the time.

See you all soon and be sure to watch the Masters next week. I think Tiger is going to win AGAIN!

It's Been A Long Time

Hello Everyone,
I know it has been several months since I updated my blog. I have been very busy over the last several months. Between going on vacation to Hawaii, Halloween, the Holidays, and my Baptism, I have not had enough time to update everyone.

I'm 8 months old now and I'm really starting to come into my own. I'm 22 lbs and close to 29 inches in length. I have started daycare which I really like and I have met some great friends there. On the food front, things have gotten interesting. I'm sucking down the formula as usual, but now my parents shovel some funky looking food into my mouth. It is pretty good and I tell you what, it makes me sleep great at night.

Over the Holidays I got to spend sometime with all my family members. It was great to see them all and I miss them everyday.

I hope everyone had a great New Year.

Love Ya,
Gavin

Hello Everybody - This week I turned 12 weeks old. I recently went to the Dr. and weighed in over 15 lbs. I'm really starting to get adjusted to this concept of life. I love to laugh, smile, and coo with my parents and their friends. I realized this week that I do not cry as much as I used to which my parents seem to be real happy about. I have a very busy next couple of weeks and I may not be able to posting anything to my blog for awhile, so I thought I would post some of my recent photos. Enjoy!

Starting My 10th Week

2007-08-05T18:40:00.000-07:00

Hello Everybody - It is amazing how quickly time flies. I have received a number of emails from you wondering what I have been up to lately. Well first I will be 10 weeks on Monday August 6th. The doctor says that I'm growing nicely. I'm 24 & 1/2 inches long and over 13lbs. The last several weeks I have been trying to get familiar with all my surroundings. I can't stop looking around and taking everything in. I'm so thirsty for information that I have a hard time falling asleep cause my mind is going crazy with all these new surroundings. My parents say this causes me to cry all the time and they keep referencing "Colic". They are crazy! I just don't want to sleep and I'm going to let them know about it. I discovered I can talk too, but my parents call it cooing. My parents make funny faces at me and I smile back and coo at them. Take a look at some of my recent photos.

I'm growing like a weed, therefore since I don't get to see you all in person that frequently, I decided that I would post some photos of me. The 1st series of photos you see here are pictures of me during the first four weeks of my life. Boy life has been good to me, I just eat and sleep. Think of being on vacation everyday, yea that is my life. I got it GOOD!
