Gavin Boy!

So this post is a little random, but I just had to post about our little man!

A couple weeks ago we went to Olive Garden for their never ending pasta bowls. Yum! Gavin was being extra happy & quite the 'ham'! We forgot a bib so we tied a napkin around his neck. Doesn't he make the cutest bandit you've ever seen? :) He loved the breadsticks & couldn't get enough. We put an olive on his finger thinking he would just shake it off, but he was very interested in this black thing on his finger.

Here are a couple videos of Gavin playing with some of his new/used/free curb toys :)



Doug found that four-wheeler on the curb & brought it home. We were shocked that it still worked. So we went back to the pile to see if he could find a charger. The home owner came out asking if he was looking for something & Doug asked for it & the man went & got it! Sweet! It is so funny to watch him push the button & just go. He always ends up running into something & just sits there pushing the button. Too funny!



I have been wanting to get one of these little cars for a long time, but they are just so darn expensive. And I wasn't having any luck on craigslist or garage sales. Until his birthday. I was driving past a flee market & spotted it. It was only $5! Yay! Gavin loves to play in it & will for a really long time. He absolutely loves anything with a steering wheel!

Well I just realized that I never posted his 12 month stats. This is more for my memory than anything.

Weight: 25 lbs (70%)
Height: 29 1/2 inches (50%)
Head: 19 inches (large!)

Love Mr. Cowboy! That four wheeler was a sweet find. I love how he claps for himself at the end of the video!
