Bringing Gavin Home

Our dog Hunter was very excited to see us. He is very gentle and just loves to smell and lick Gavin's feet.
We stopped to take a quick 5 generation picture with Great great grandma Pearl, Great grandpa Dean, Grandma Lisa, daddy and Gavin. It is so cool to get a rare picture like this one.

First time in his car seat. Ready to leave the hospital and go home.


Such a sweet baby




Gavin's Birthday...April 29th

First time daddy got to hold Gavin.
He was very alert and relaxed for about 2 hours after he was born.

Last prego pic. Walking around.....
We went to the hospital at 7:30am and started to be induced at 9:00am. At 12:30 my doctor broke my water, I started to push at 5:30pm and Gavin was here at 5:58pm. Not too long of a labor, however, my epidural didn't work so it was a natural birth, which was hard and pretty intense but SO worth it and really not as bad as I thought it could be. Gavin weighed 7.2 lbs and was 20 inches long. He came out looking so beautiful and Jason and I both fell in love instantly. What an amazing day!!!! We had lots of visitors. The nurses said that they had never seen the waiting room that packed before. Lots of family and friends couldn't wait to meet the little guy :) The support and love we have is incredible!!

I had such a nice baby shower. It was so nice for my mom to give me such a nice shower and for everyone to come and give such great gifts. Thanks again to everyone!
