Today was Gavin's Baptism at Nativity. He was SUCH a great baby and did not fuss the entire time. He even fell asleep in his Dad's arms during mass. It was a very beautiful ceremony and we could feel Grandma's guidance over us. She was there with us.
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
-Psalm 139:13-14
Gavin is very lucky to have 2 amazing Godparents. Scott and Erica will always take such good care of him:)
We has such a wonderful Thanksgiving in Cincinnati. We are so thankful for everything we have and all the amazing people in our lives. We have so much to be thankful for.
I am thankful for God, my husband, my son, my family, my friends, my job, our home, our health, our guardian angels, and this list could go on and on.
We celebrated Christmas on Thanksgiving because we will not be in town this year. It was so fun to watch Griffin and Gavin open their gifts...and it was so cute because they both had their sweater vests on:) I am pretty sure that Erica and I will dress them in similar cute outfits until they stop letting us:)
Today we took Gavin over to meet his Great Grandparents (they have been in Florida and just got home) Gavin got to play the piano with Great-Grandma, and he loved it:)
I am hoping to get a video soon...Today Gavin laughed for the first time while playing peek-a-boo with uncle Scott. It was so cute! We tried to get a video, but the sound would not work:( I will do my best to get one as soon as he does it again!
This afternoon we took the boys to the Children's Museum to see the train exibit. Griffin LOVES trains and had a lot of fun looking at the HUGE model train set. We were so excited to see Santa when we got there, and could not resist having the boys sit with him. Gavin had no problem and just looked around. Griffin was a little unsure of Santa's beard, so santa sat on the ground to make Griffin feel better. So sweet of santa:)
Mr. Gavin is now 14 weeks old! We are having such a great time here in Cincinnati...We have been very busy with lots of shopping, hanging out at Grandma's, going out to eat, and lots of other things. Gavin LOVES to watch his cousin Griffin and Griffin has a sweet little obsession with Gavin. It is so cute. Griffin just loves to give Gavin kisses and hugs and says "baby" every time he see's Gavin. They are so cute together...I really wish we were not so far from them...
Gavin adjusted to Ohio time pretty quickly when we got here, but he has not been sleeping very well. At ALL! He is up most of the night wanting to be held...and he has started a new little routine of sleeping/napping ONLY while in someones arms or the car/stroller. Hmm. This is really going to be hard to break!
Gavin has been on Zantac now for over a week for acid reflux. We thought this may be causing his irritability and not a milk allergy. I gave up ALL dairy for 2 weeks and he still has his days of being pretty upset. So, we went with zantac...so far so good. He has only had 2 really crabby days, and I am pretty sure it is because he refused to nap. So we shall see. Overall, he really has been a very good baby...just wish he would learn how to sleep a little better!
