I am sorry I have been so lax about updating. Tis the season! I have been trying to get out all the Christmas cards out, I have done 50 with about 25 more to do! Sheesh! And of course getting the house decorated, wrapping, etc.... I know, excuses, excuses!
To get on to the important part of this blog, our little Gavin has had a big couple of weeks. We got our very first Christmas tree, which to be honest he didn't really care about until lately. Now he is very into the bows on the gifts and a few of the ornaments, which we have documented on the pics. He is only allowed to take off the two jingle bells on the tree and he takes them off several times a day. He is pretty funny about it.
Some other firsts, he said his first word! CIRCLE. Yes, odd, circle being his first word. Greg and I have heard him say some things, Momma, Da Da, but circle? It is was very cute, we have a "shape" toy that you put in the different shapes into the matching holes and he was putting the circle in all by himself, which was also a first, and Greg and I were both saying "circle". Well he said it, and we both about had a heart attack. We made him repeat it just to see if he really did say it and sure enough he said it again.
Gavin also has his very first cold or as we found out at the doctor yesterday, a sinus infection. Poor baby, he has definitely had his ups and downs and right now is on an upswing. Which is wonderful, a sick Gavin is not a fun child!
On another note, that child is incorrigible. Right now he is very into placing things or as I like to say "hiding things". I just found my flip flops in the end table. He loves to put things in jars, the cabinets, the trash can, which isn't so great when I can't find a lid to a pot! But I do like that it keeps him occupied! Still no walking, he is taking 2-3 steps on his own, but that is it! Hopefully soon! ****Update: Gavin took 4 or 5 steps on his own this morning! Yea***
A Merry Christmas to you all! Hope it is filled with love and family!
