I took a bunch of pictures of Gavin yesterday in hopes of getting one that would be good for a birth announcement. I got several good ones and an extra special one that I will not post right now ; ). But, I wanted to put this one on here because to me he looks…
A Day in the Life
So I am feeling a TON better this weekend and Gavin and I are back in our normal nursing routine, thank goodness. On another subject, I was looking for a sling that I could “wear” Gavin in when we go out, etc. I had seen one at the baby expo but it was pretty expensive…
Can you say “Mastitis?”
So, the last week or so has been a little daunting. I ended up with an infection (called mastitis) in my right nursing unit (a.k.a. boob) and haven’t felt that sick in quite a while. Funny how just a little, localized infection gives you a fever and makes you feel just like you have the…
Bumbo Baby
So we tried out this new chair over the weekend that we bought for Gavin and although he still needs to get a little better control of his head, he seems to really like it! It’s called a Bumbo Chair and it’s just too cute to see a little baby “sitting” and he loves to…
“Head Case”
Well, we had Gavin’s 2 month check up this morning (including 4 shots – oh how I hate watching that!) and he weighs 11 pounds 2 ounces and (a gain of 3 pounds in 1 month!). He’s doing really well except for one little bugaboo – an issue with his head formation. Pretty much since…
Pictures, Pictures!
Here are bunch of cute pictures of 2 month-old Gavin. We took professional pictures today so I had to get him to practice! HA! And here is Ben’s first attempt ever at taking a picture (the one below with Gavin and me in it). I think he did pretty good considering… Nothing that a little…
We had a fun 4th this year – we had friends and family over while Tim and his brother Brian “smoked” (a.k.a. bbq’ed) some chickens (beer can chicken that is) and sausage. We also attended the Arlington 4th of July parade in the morning. Ben had fun watching the high school bands and the firetrucks….

MeeMaw’s Birthday
On Friday night we celebrated Tim’s paternal Grandmother’s 90th birthday at Catina Laredo in Dallas. She looks great and continues to have a full life and is such a sweet person. I think 90 may be the new 75! HA! Anyway, we were glad to be able to celebrate such a milestone with her and…
Growing Up
I realized I hadn’t posted anything in a while and didn’t want my next entry to be titled “2 months old” so I figured I better get on it! There’s not THAT much going on with us that’s too thrilling but when you have an infant and are mostly staying close to home, I guess…
A Whole Month Old!
I can hardly believe it, but our little Gavin is already a month old today. We went for his check up this morning and he is weighing in at 8 lbs. 5 0z. and he’s an entire inch longer than when he was born (20 and 1/4 inches). So it’s further proof (as are all…
