Almost a Teenager


Gavin, our firstborn, turns twelve today!  Twelve years ago we became parents to a 9 pound, 4 ounce little boy who loved to eat and move, but didn't seem to need nearly as much sleep his inexperienced parents did.

And now he's almost a teenager. That idea excites him. 

He still doesn't need much sleep and gets frustrated if he's in bed past 7 in the morning.  He loves to talk, figure things out, build with Lego, draw, read mysteries, and tell jokes. He loves our cat, Dott, and he has a special bond with his little sister, Alaine.

He is suddenly growing taller and his face is more mature and losing the little boy look.  See how much he changed from April to October of this year!



Happy Birthday, Gavin!
