So my 1st baby really isn't a baby at all anymore! We frequently get the question...how is Gavin doing now that Madeline is here. Honestly, he's been pretty good with her, although I think the novelty is starting to wear off! He likes to give Maddie her binkie, sometimes he will pull it out of her mouth first just so he can put it back in! He will tell you, be gentle with Maddie! Gavin has been testing us more than he used to...mostly me, but I can't really blame him, after all he didn't ASK to have a sibling! We are also working on potty training, Cary has mostly taken on this AWFUL duty! Man, what a PITA! I keep telling myself it will be so nice when he is fully potty trained, but some days are a struggle. Actually, most days he does pretty well peeing on the potty, and usually even stays dry during his nap! What can I say, candy DOTS are a great bribe! Pooping...yep, still happens in his pull up :(Gavin's favorite things these days are firetrucks (and Fireman Sam), puzzles, games, cars and trucks.
Favorite words these days are Gavin do and I do it myself. I am enjoying the fact that Gavin can now follow directions (if he wants to), climb in and out of his car seat, plays by himself for long periods of time, and has a pretty great sense of humor! Overall, I think we really are realizing how much he has really grown up. We love this little man so much, and don't want him to grow up too fast!

Safety first...Gavin wouldn't go without his helmet on!
