Happy Birthday Gavin

(If anyone doesn't want to read my lovey rambling, you should just stop now, bc I just can't help it!)

As I sit here typing while you sleep in on your birthday, my pregnancy emotions must be going through the roof! Everytime I think about how my little man is turning 1 year old today, I tear up and am flooded with so many emotions of joy, pride, and love for all the time we've spent this past year. Mostly love...oh my gosh I love you so so  much little Gavin! You have turned our world upside down over this past year, and its been amazing! 

The day you were born is a day I will never forget! I knew when I woke up that morning that today was the day. I knew when we got to the hospital and I was working hard to make it through each contraction that you were on your way! And I knew when the Dr said you weren't coming out the way we planned, that you were definitely a Fischer boy; "You wanted to do it your way!" You wanted to choose how you made your debut and you were perfect! 

I love thinking back to our first months, when you would lay around and look up at me and Daddy, when you would just snuggle all day and night, and when your every noise made us jump up to see that you were okay! Then we got to watch you start interacting with the world; reaching for toys, rolling over, trying to crawl and then finally walking a month ago! I love your voice and how much you use it! You get this from your Mommy. :) 

We have the best family and friends that you have spent so much time with, and they all love you so much! Your Grandparents make you smile the second you see them! Your Aunts and Uncles love on you and give you so many kisses! And your two cousins (and 2 more on the way) make you crack up the entire time they're around you! You are so lucky to have such great people influencing your world and Im thankful every day for all of them! 

Happy Birthday Sweet Boy, I love you more than this blog can convey, more than my biggest kiss can make you smile, more than the loudest you can laugh, and more than you will ever know!!
