Milestones!

So the pastmonth has been a major milestone for Gavin. It has been a month full of mixed emotions for me. As I see these pics and post them, I am again reminded that my baby is officially not a "baby" anymore. Gavin has made the huge transition from a crib to a "big boy bed" and has done amazing. He doesn't get out of it...ever, and sleeps through the night!

The biggest milestone that I am so proud of him for is he is potty trained. After 7 months is "training" it has finally just clicked and he has got it with the exception of the times when he is playing ball and doesn't want to stop to go to the potty. He is 2 1/2 so I definitly have to brag on my smart baby for that. God truly amazes me all the time with what he has done with Gavin and where he has come in such a short 2 1/2 years. When I think he is a normal 2 1/2 year old, God shows something else in Gavin to remind me that he is an exception and a miracle in our lives. God is good!

The other milestone is that Gavin has started his 2nd year of school. It is very structured this year and he has class assignments this year so it is alot different for him and I know it will be so good for him. I took him this week and I believe mommy is having as many seperation issues as Gavin.

As I sit back and look at all the changes in the past year that we have has with Gavin, I am reminded how much tme flies and how much I treasure my time with my boys, Patrick and Gavin. I really don't feel like I deserve either of them, and I am so thankful that God has grace enough on me to give me such joy in my life in these two people.

Thank you Patrick and Gavin for being my heart. I love you both to the moon and back.
