Week 14-Daycare!!

(Daddy and Gavin playing "smack the birdies")

Gavin started the week with going to Elaine's house. She is Gavin's daycare provider. He had an ok 1st day, but has quickly adjusted this past week. He has lots of new friends there to watch and learn from. It is good to have him doing so well there and we hope it continues. He does come home to us a little on the tired side, but that just means mommy gets to snuggle him more.

We were excited for the weekend to come this past week. We began by "breaking down" and going to the Buffalo Tap for diner with some of Jill's work friends and their spouses. As usual, Gavin was a perfect little man...it helps when he's exhausted and sleeps most of the time there. HA! Saturday was spent outside in the nice weather and then up to Rob and Peg's.

Grandma B was a brave soul, babysitting all 4 of the grandkids while mommy and daddy went out to diner with Papa T. and Rob and Peg. We realized in the time that Jill and I have dated and been married, we don't recall ever having an adult evening with Rob and Peg. It was a good time and we had a nice meal at Benihana's.

Sunday was spent inside with the rainy day and part of the day at cousin Will's first communion. Gavin was the object of attention with Auntie Peg's family. They loved meeting Gavin. Sunday night was waiting for for us and the night zoomed by. As we put the munchkin down for the night, daddy didn't think it would be a good night since Gavin had a wild weekend and wasn't on schedule much.

(Showing off my tongue)

To our surprise, we put the little man down around 9:30 and he didn't wake Monday morning until 5:00 a.m.!!!! That is a good night. Except when daddy was told to get out of bed to see if he could get him to sleep another hour. We cuddle in the rocker and zonked out until 6:00. Let's hope this is a new thing that Gavin wants to repeat and improve on....perhaps one more hour??????

(A mullet sighting?????)

Unfortunately Gavin is the victim of active head syndrome. He loves looking around and wiggles and squirms when he is on his back playing and sleeping. The result is the "thinning" of hair EXCEPT for that lower area that doesn't quite touch. He will not appreciate this photo when he's in junior high. He'll have to get over it.
