Weighing In at 11.5 lbs

Yesterday we went to the doctor and Gavin weighed 11 lbs 5 ounces. David & I guessed that he would be 10.2 or 10.6...boy were we off. He got his second Hep B shot and only cried for a second. It wasn't bad at all. We had a very good day running around as a family. Gavin looked so cute in his little hoodie, until he spit up all over it! Oh well!

Pics from the hospital

Sic 'Em Bears

After much confusion at the hospital, Gavin finally realized he is a Baylor Bear so Daddy taught him how to show his best "Sic 'Em Bears"! Grandma Escajeda also visited last week. She was a huge help. Gavin had some excitement last week when he got a rash on his arms, legs, hands and feet. We took him to the pediatric dermatologist and were relieved to find out it was only a common viral rash. He also had to have blood drawn the same day because his second screening came back abnormal on his thyroid. Again, the Lord was watching over him and the blood test came back normal. The rash is all gone and Baby Gavin is looking as beautiful as ever this week. ">

JuJu Visits

My first week home, JuJu came and stayed with us. We had so much fun learning all of Baby Gavin's noises and funny faces. Life has most certainly changed for the better. I seriously don't know how we lived without this beautiful gift in our lives. This is amazing!! Words can't describe how we feel being parents & having this little person depend on us for survival. Scary, exhausting, & exhilarating all at once. Can't wait to see how he grows every day!
