I can't believe my baby is 9 months old! Where has the time gone? As much fun as we are having with Gavin every day, it still makes me sad that he is growing so fast and is no longer the tiny baby who was content snuggling in my arms. He is now wiggling all the time and wants to check everything out around him.
G loves to play in the water...will he be my dish helper?
On Friday we had our first day care scare - I was in St. Paul for an offsite meeting when Elaine our daycare lady called to say Gavin had been screaming for 2 hours...she tried all her tricks and the only way he would stop crying was to be held! I was almost in tears by the time I left my meeting, I made an appointment for him at the doctor thinking maybe he had an ear infection and headed straight to pick him up. By the time I got to pick him up he was cruising around in his walker with a huge smile on his face! What a stinker, I guess he had just decided he wanted mom to leave work early on a beautiful Friday. We did go to the doctor to get his ears checked out, no ear infection...just some wax build up! The doctor thought the crying may be due to the 4 teeth Gavin has coming in.
Saturday Lauryn (3 1/2) and Tyler (almost 11 months) came to spend the day/night with us! Tyler is on the move and feeding himself (what a mess that is)...it gave us a sneak peak of what the next few weeks/ month will have in store for us once Gavin is a bit more mobile! While we did have fun, I can't imagine what it would be like to have twins! I have a feeling Tyler and Gavin are going to be partners in crime in a few years!

Monday Cary left on a field trip with 70 5th graders to Long Lake Environmental camp. Gavin was helping Daddy pack and was hoping Daddy would take him along! No such luck, G was stuck at home with mom.
G passed out after his bottle (bottle of formula that is)We have been getting Gavin to start feeding himself a bit more after we feed him his babyfood. So far his favorite is cantaloupe, biter biscuits and wagon wheels...he hasn't quite taken to strawberries and pears yet.
