Gavin Update!

Well Gavin is continuing to grow up and learn new things so fast! I can't believe that as soon as he learns one thing he starts another new one right away! And I know this sounds like a cliche' but I really can't believe we are approaching his first birthday!!
Gav is such a kid now...he's eating lots of food, can stand on his own but never really wants to, waves bye-bye using just his fingers instead of his whole arm, puts his hands up on his ears when you say "where's Gavin?", says "Daddy", and "doggie" (which sound a lot alike but he definitely knows and loves "doggies", especially tink!), he says please in sign language, he is pointing now and always points around to things on the wall when you're carrying him and wants to go touch them and check them out, and he loves giving hugs and kisses (a.k.a. wide open mouth slobbers on the cheek!)! It is so awesome to see him be able to communicate better and be able to teach him new tricks! He gets around so good too, I really think he will just decide to walk all of a sudden one day! We've had a couple of crying incidences when mommy tried to leave him at the ymca to work out and he doesn't like it when I run downstairs or outside- I'm just trying to teach him that "I'll be back"! Well, that's the run down on what he's doing now, there will be lots more to come as his learning continues!
