Look at this sweet face....
My baby is almost a year old, and I keep thinking back to this time last year; I was hugely pregnant, feeling like I needed to have everything ready for Gavin's arrival. Im also pretty sure that I still didn't have a bag packed for the hospital. I think I did that about 3 days before I went into labor! Good timing. :)
Now I know that it doesn't matter what I thought I had prepared for Gavin's arrival. Bc I could never imagine the things I would need to make him happy, make him smile, keep him warm and snuggly, and keep him safe. And most importantly, I could never imagine how much I NEEDED HIM! Every day and every second of my life revolves around this little guy. My every decision from what to cook, whether my floors are clean enough, what errands to run, what clothes or jewelry to buy (that he wont pull at), and pretty much every other thing in my life, revolve around Gavin. And I wouldn't trade it for the world! I can't wait to have another one, but for now, Im enjoying every second I have with just Gavin and I. Im "retiring" in December, and so excited to spend more time with my babies! I know how incredibly lucky I am to be able to do this, and I won't be taking forgranted a single second of this time!
Now back to Gavin:
Stats:
Weight - 24 lbs
Dont know his height, but we'll know at his 1 year
Walking like crazy, but still crawls to get places faster
Starting to be a picky eater, but loves almost all fruit
18 oz total of formula a day, and he doesnt even finish them all
3 meals and a few snacks each day
STILL NO TEETH!
Love to wave and clap, and still mostly just says "mama" "dada" and "hi" and "nana" for banana. Im sure his Nana will be happy to hear him say that to her though too!
Goes to Mothers Day Out 3 days a week for 5 hours, otherwise he's with me!
Snuggles every night with me or Eric after his bottle
Smiles the biggest when he sees Daddy (its my favorite thing)
Sleeps from 7:30 to 7:30 almost every day
Here are a few pics that I took recently of the little man...
