Fall festivities

I love the fall! So many fun things to do and NOT SWEATING while doing them.

First tummy time

First tubby time

I have lots of help with this little guy next to me!

David wanted to help by getting a hairbrush to brush Gavin with after his bath

Our ferocious Halloween lion. 

We took this little stinker Trick-or-treating this year. After the first few doors, where he cried when anyone would say something to him, he figured out that these strange people were giving him candy and that's when he started loving this trick-or-treat deal. We would go to the door and he would say "treack"(one of the few versions of him saying trick or treat) then he would grab the candy and the say "bye-bye" and turn around and run!

VIP: Very Important Pendleton

Gavin Lance Pendleton

Born October 10, 2011 7:51 pm

7 lbs 13.5 oz, 20 1/4" long

We had Gavin at the same hospital(Texas Women's in Houston) with the same doctor(Dr. Pinell) who delivered David. Our second nurse we had was even the same nurse I had with David so everything felt pretty comfortable for us! The delivery went wonderfully and could not have asked for a better experience...the labor on the other hand was not quite so wonderful:-) Gavin has already proven to be an awesome sleeper...too good to tell you the truth. I can hardly wake him for his meals! He's a great eater. He has the cutest litte cries...sounds kind of like a little mouse. We think he looks a lot like David did when he as born which means he will probably look like another little Lance and nothing like me...maybe one child will resemble me!Enjoy pictures of our new love!

Lance thinks that he needs to take pictures when I have contractions. This obviously wasn't during one because I would have not been so kind as to smile for a picture.

David meeting his new brother for the first time! We didn't think he really understood what was happening during the pregnancy but right when he came in the room he got excited and started saying "be be!"(baby). He wanted to give him tons of loves and kisses. David likes to point out Gavin's toes, eyes, ears, nose, head, etc. He thinks it is funny when Gavin starts crying. He also likes to lay on Gavin so

now David cannot be trusted with little G man without intense supervision from us:-)

It is quite difficult to entertain an almost 2 year old in a hospital room. So we did this a lot...

and called the nurses station on accident A LOT.

 

Going home!
