Toys and Toes




Just an update on our little man. Gavin has begun reaching for toys during his tummy time. This doesn't happen every time and he still struggles not to SCREAM during tummy time, but there is improvement. Also, Gavin recently found his toes and will grab at his rght foot (never his left) every chance he gets. He increasingly likes to stand and sit upright so that he can see what's going on around him. It is a rare occasion now that he will rest his head on my shoulder, he is always looking out. The other day I sat him up in the corner of the coach and he sat there, happy as a clam (where did that saying come from? I mean, do we really know if clams are happy?...hmm), for 10 minutes just staring at me wherever I went. It was so cute! I LOVE it when he stares at me no matter where I am or who is holding him!

He is so cute. It's fun when they start to reach. Then it gets old real fast when they grab your drink and it goes flying!

Jen,

This is Michelle (Dalley) Smith from Timp! I totally feel like a blog stalker, but I was at Brynn's house last night and she said you had stopped by. Then, I saw your comment on her blog! Your little guy is darling! What a beautiful family! So fun to hear how you are doing! We are making our blog private soon, so make a comment & I'll invite you (if you want) & we can keep in touch!

He is so cute! I love his big eyes. I can't believe how big he is getting. It's surprising everytime I see new pictures of him. They grow so fast!
