Gavin is One Month Old!

It is hard to believe that one month has already gone by....in a way it feels like it's been longer and yet it also seems like he was just born last week! I am still definitely sleep deprived but getting by on naps that I take with Gavin. That first couple of weeks I didn't think I was going to make it through a day by myself and actually be able to do things like grocery shopping or making dinner. Now that I have had that trial by fire, I realize I can do it. It just takes some prioritizing and planning. Carlton's work schedule has been really busy this week, so he doesn't get home until after dinner in the evenings. This means that instead of relying on Carlton to deal with feeding the dogs and taking them out before bed, I have to do it with Gavin. My carrier has come in handy for this but I quickly learned I can't bend forward with it on, so I have to squat to put on dog leashes and pick up dog poop!! I am learning!!

So I didn't post all the pics from my Mom's trip out here...here are more pictures with her and also more recent pics. Gavin had his 4 week checkup and he is now 7 pounds 5 ounces, so he is growing! I can definitely tell when he is having a growth spurt....the time between feedings is shorter! Anyway, here are more pics:

He likes having just one eye open

Our friend Sarah Rivera took pictures of Gavin when he was two weeks old. He was somewhat cooperative although we had to take a lot of nursing breaks! Here are a few that came out.
