Gavin has only recently started to interact with paper products, but he's already a big fan. We tried to take a birthday picture for Uncle CJ this week, just like we did for Uncle Kevin about a month ago. But this month, Gavin was very interested in the piece of paper wishing Uncle CJ a happy birthday, and tried his best to shove the entire thing in his mouth. So we ended up doing a birthday video of Gavin devouring CJ's birthday wish. That video is on Facebook, because I'm saving a super cute video for this blog!
Gavin had a busy weekend. He went shopping with me and Grandma Mayner on Saturday at Gurnee Mills. Gavin did a great job shopping, although he wasn't really interested in staying in his stroller where he can't see any of the action. So he spent a lot of time bjorning and flirting with the ladies.
Today, Gavin went to a Christmas party thrown by Miss Jeanne, his daycare provider. Gavin really enjoyed hanging out with his baby friends, and we liked meeting the other kids and their parents. Miss Jeanne threw a really great party, and gave Gavin some very thoughtful presents!
At first, Gavin was more interested in trying to eat the wrapping paper than he was with the actual presents.
But once we got home and assembled his present, Gavin decided to check out his new loot.
Gavin also used his new toy to show off one of his new tricks, sitting up on his own! Its not really sitting so much as it is leaning forward and propping himself up for a few seconds until he plops over one way or the other, but its still a start!
It took him a few minutes to decide, but finally Gavin agreed that Miss Jeanne picked out a pretty cool present.
Miss Jeanne also gave us a really neat present, a calendar with pictures of Gavin at daycare! She took so many great pictures, but here's a pic of the March pictures when Gavin was rocking a sweet mohawk.
Gavin didn't want to be a party pooper, but Miss Jeanne's party was during nap time, so this is what Gavin looked like after the short 5 minute drive home.
Even though it's just starting to feel like winter time, Daddy says pitchers and catchers report in just a few months. He and Gavin like to talk about all the fun they'll have in the spring. Gavin thinks this is a riot. The video below shows off Gavin's newest skill, laughing! He is still learning though, so right now it kind of sounds like someone stepping on a Canadian goose, but its still music to our ears!
