Gavin's 2 Month Stats

These past two months have just flown right past us! I remember with Elias, it felt like FOREVER until he smiled around 8 or 9 weeks. Probably because all I did all day/everyday was sit over him and make the most ridiculous faces until my cheeks hurt. I obviously don't have that kind of time on my hands anything with a slightly handicapped toddler (because of the casts). With Gavin, everything just seems to be happening so fast! He first smiled about 2 weeks ago, but it wasn't consistent and sometimes not even in response to anything. Just in the past week he's started smiling back at us when we smile and talk to him, and oh it just melts our hearts!

At 2 months, Gavin is:

• 10lbs 14 oz
• 22 1/4 in.
• Sleeping through the night! Usually from 11pm-6am.
• Drinking 5 oz every 4 hours or so.
• Fitting nicely into 0-3mo clothing.
• Starting to watch his brother.
• Loves snuggling with blankets, especially when they're up against his face.
• Somehow managing to wiggle out of his Ponsetti boots no matter how tight we buckle them.
• Hating tummy time
• Loosing the "old-man" face
• Chunkin' up in his face and belly!

My old man wrinkly forehead is gone!

On another note, we've had a very difficult week saying goodbye to our church family. We went out for dinner with the youth group Wednesday night and then Kevin had to say his goodbyes. I'm sure he would agree that that moment was hands down one of the hardest things he's had to do in his life thus far. We will miss everyone so much at First Church Boxford. Thank you for all your love, support, and prayers over the past 3 years! We love you all!

Kevin had a phone interview for a church in New Jersey this morning that went well. He has 3 more interviews in the next 2 weeks, so hopefully something pans out for us soon. 

We're all scheduled to move  back to PA September 15th. Kevin's dad is coming up to drive the moving truck back down to Harrisburg, where we'll be moving in with Kevin's mom and stepdad until he gets a job. Next week the madness will ensue as we begin packing up the house.
