Happy Gavers at Christmas
This handsome fella is 6 months old, 17 pounds 6 ounces, 26.75 inches. He is eating all sorts of baby food, and starting Sunday, he is crying it out at night. Sunday night I let him cry himself back to sleep at night. Then Monday night, he slept from 8 PM to 8 AM only waking up and crying a couple times. Tuesday night he slept from 8 PM to 7 AM crying only once during the night. I am proud of him and wondering why I didn't start this earlier. He wakes up happy and smiling in the morning. It helps make up for the fact that Eydie stopped taking naps now most days. I'll take sleeping all night long.
6 month old handsome, blue-eyed boy
Gavster is a joyful baby. He giggles all the time. I love the sound of his laugh. His smile lights up his eyes. He has one tooth on the bottom and puts everything into his mough including his fingers and toes. He, like his sister, has no interest in a pacifier. He prefers chewing on his Sofie giraffe toy and anything else he can reach.
Mama and son
A couple weeks ago I went on a trip with my college girlfriends. I took my camera but did not take a single picture. We spent the weekend in a lakehouse cabin in pajamas or sweats, no makeup, cooked our meals and went on walks. It was fun and refreshing. 11 of us were there plus Gavin and baby Molly.
Thanks Hannah Vickers for the pictures!
