The things I have learned.


We have been HOME for one month today with Gavin and I have learned a few things (okay maybe more then a few) about my new bundle of joy.

1~ the boy loves to brush his teeth and the top row is very ticklish. He laughs and laughs every time we get to that part of the process.

2~ he really likes to sing and learn new songs. We have mastered "twinkle, twinkle little star" and are learning "jingle bell". I know it's June, but Gary clams he could not think of any other song one night when he was putting Gavin to bed.

3~ Gavin likes to ride in the car. He likes to go places, but is not a fan of the mall. Just like all the other men in this family, that's not a big surprise.

4~ he is already counting to 10 in English, only he leaves out 8 most times.

5~ Gavin will most likely have the words "class clown" on his future report cards as he will go to great lengths to get a laugh from everyone.


I can't wait to see what else is to be learned about this little boy and I'm so blessed to be the one to witness all the things to come.

Gavin and my Caleb would likely be "best buds" if they knew one another ~ class clown fits my little one perfectly and you can constantly find him belting out Twinkle, twinkle...
Happy one month home!

ok...how funny is this. Faith also would count to 10 and leave the 8 out. My husband couldn't think of a song to sing and also sang the same Christmas song, Faith's first English song was Twinkle, Twinkle. These kids need to meet :)

1)Jesus Loves Me
2)You are my Sunshine
3)The Donut Man Song
etc. - see I could've helped!!
