Easter

Sorry folks, Blogger is giving me errors. I can't seem to upload any pictures. I've tried several times over the last two weeks. I'll keep trying though, so stay tuned!

Springtime fun!

Gavin has been quite the busy boy lately. He runs, he climbs, he swings. In short, he thinks he's 2 already! Anything Gwydion does, Gavin must do.


Here he is playing on the slide at Grandma's house.

And visiting Grandma's chickens. He wasn't at all afraid of them.

Playing peekaboo in the playhouse window.

Mr. Mischief. I get this look from him a LOT.

Swinging in the sun!

Shadow dancing and spring interrupted

I caught Gwydion dancing in the kitchen. Of course, Gavin had to join in!



We visited Grandma and enjoyed some fabulous weather.

Gwydion met Grandma's new chickens.


And a few days later, we got 6 inches of snow. Snow at the end of March is a very uncommon occurrence here. It was perfect though. We had enough snow to play in for a day and it was gone the next.

Gavin's 15 month appointment

Only a few weeks late, thanks to all of us having a horrible cold.

He's 32.75" tall (92nd%), 25.8 lbs (65th%), and his big ol' head is 48.2 cm (76th %). He's a big boy all over! No wonder he thinks he's 2; he's the size of a 2 year old! He's recently gotten one of his molars in (finally!) so he's up to 9 teeth now.

He still isn't eating much of anything other than carbs- crackers mostly. Of course he eats french fries and pizza crust. :P He's very occassionally nibbling an apple or carrot, but not much else. He still won't drink anything but mama milk and maybe an ounce or two of water per day. He doesn't like juice or anything else we've tried so far. So I'll be nursing a little longer I guess.

He's physically much more adept than Gwydion was at this age, especially with fine motor control. He also climbs like a madman and loves to do flips. He talks a LOT. The doctor wanted him to have a 4-6 word vocabulary, but he's easily got 3 times that. Of course I'm probably the only one who understands him, but at least he's talking!

It is really interesting to see how different they are. Gwydion was all about organizing his trains and doing puzzles at this age.

Gavin and the trains

Gavin loves to play trains just like his big brother. He's got a little to learn about sharing the track though!
