1 Year!!!

Yesterday was Brandon and I's 1 year Anniversary I can't believe it! It seems like not that long ago we were trying to figure out all the wedding plans. Now we are a family with the addition of Gavin and our wonderful kitty Madison. Wow!

We had a wonderful day as a family. We went to the park and had a picnic, it was kinda rainy but the weather looked just like it did on our wedding day, except it didn't actually rain last year. We took Gavin with us and just made it seem perfect. We took him on his first walk in his stroller and he slept right threw it.

Then last night we took Gavin to my mom's house so we could go to the movie Dark Knight. It was really weird to be with out Gavin. Every where we have gone he has been with us, but mom of coarse had a blast with Gavin and is enjoying being a grandma!

One year, a great year and many more wonderful years to go I can't wait!!

Happy Birthday Dad!

Yesterday was my Dad's Birthday!! It was really nice to have the family over for dinner and seeing them enjoy Gavin! His first birthday as a Grandpa, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!!

We have also had a few visitors over and it is so much fun seeing relatives with him and just so surprised over how little he is and how much hair he has!!! Aunt Jodie came over with some of the rug rats. Quinton and Alyssa both held him and seemed so thrilled to have another little one in the family! Quinton also i think is really happy that he isn't the youngest anymore! hehe
Cousin Becky and her daughter Sydney also stopped by and just enjoyed the little guy!!

My old roomie from college Linz just cracks me up she ordered us pizza for dinner the other night all the way from Ga. Got to love the roomie!! Thanks we really enjoyed it!


Tummy Time!!

He is so small that he doesn't fit in a swing or the little bouncer we got so we have a pillow in it and a bunch of blankets! haha So cute!
Our Little Football player! i was so happy that i had found a Colts Jersey for a New born and It still doesn't fit him just looks like he has on shoulder pads!

2 weeks old

Gavin is now two weeks old and still doing great!!! He had his first Dr.'s appt. today and everything went well! he said that he looks great and well on his way!! He is taking his bottles great and still isn't really all that much of a crier! (lets hope it stays that way) Madison is getting more use to him still not really sure what to do with him or why he is here!! Things are going great!!

Both Grandma's Michele and Shirley and Grandpa Doug have come to see Gavin and he also got to meet his uncle Zach and Great Grandma Norrick. Gavin seems to like to meet new people cause he stays awake to hang out!!

Can't wait for him to meet more of you!!

Gavin is Home!!

Great news!!! Gavin got to come home this afternoon! We had a great night at the hospital and he is eatting really well so he got cleared to come home. With him being a premie we have a few dr. apts to go to but we are just thrilled that he is home!!
Madison (the kitty cat) hasn't really noticed that he is here just kinda smells him and walks away. so that is also good!!!
If anyone wants to come and meet the little guy just give us a call to make sure we are here!!
