Changes!

Well there have been lots of changes in the last few days in the Tomlinson household. For starters Gavin had his first real big open mouth smile Sunday morning. He had given little ones a couple of time before but there was no mistaking this one!! He was looking right at me and had a huge smile! He did it a few other times too (hurray daddy got to see cause he was home!). I sort of got a picture of it (it's really blurry and bright because I was so close and did it so fast) but I had to post it because it was the first morning he did it!! After smiles he also gave us a couple of on purpose "coos"!! Again, looking right at us! It was so cool to see him starting to communicate! Now we just watch all day (and night!) long for more smiles!!




The other big news is that it's really winter here!! We've had tons of snow the last few days! Sunday we woke up to everything being covered and we still didn't have a shovel! As you'll see Andrew found a way! He used a piece of ply wood to shove it off the driveway (he actually still uses it some instead of the shovel). Last night Andrew could barely make it home from work because it was a blizzard. He said at times he couldn't see past his hood and could hardly even see that. Everything is closed today and it's still coming down!!! I'm loving it because I can just sit cozy with Gavin and watch it from inside!! Hopefully we'll get to have a white Christmas!!!
