{Gavin 10 Months}

Dear baby Gavin,

Today you turn 10 months old. Ten. This last month has been so much fun, and you learn new things each and every day. Your little personality is developing so much, and we are having so much fun with you. You are understanding more and more every day.

You have really started to LOVE eating big boy food. We give you whatever we are eating (minus the spicy stuff) and you eat absolutely everything! There is not anything you won't eat! Your favorites include blueberries, cherrys, mangos, apples, carrots, sweet potato, rice/veggie pasta, toast, spaghetti, raisins, peas, chicken, and puffs. These are just to name a few. You still nurse about 4 times a day, and you take bottles for Daddy/Grandma while I am at work.

Your favorite activities include going to the park, library baby story time, swimming, library drum circle, play dates with friends, park dates with friends, reading books in your room, playing in your water table, playing at Grandma's house, swinging, and much much more. You are definitely a very busy baby...love to on the move. Go, go go!

You wear 12-18month clothing, and seem like you will need more 18month stuff pretty soon! You are in size 3 or 4 diapers, and sometimes a size 5 at nightJ Your feet have really grown in the past month, and you are now in a size 4 shoe. We went out and got you your first pair of summer sandals…specifically made for learning how to walk. They look so cute on your chubby feet! You weigh a little over 20 pounds now, and feel like you weigh a million. I can’t believe that my baby is 20 pounds!

We are headed to Florida this weekend, and we are all looking forward to spending the week with everyone. You will be SO excited to see them all...and I am sure you will be following Griffin around everywhere!

Gavin, I thank God each and every day that we get to spend with you. You are so loved by us, and we cannot imagine our lives without you.

Love you little man!
