baby gavin

on june 25th at 5:54pm after 30 minutes of pushing gavin scott schroeder entered the world. weighing exactly 8 pounds, 21 inches long and healthy my baby was finally in my arms! the whole labor process is a little bit too much for me, but holding that little one in your arms for the first time is worth every ounce of pain. he came out looking exactly like his father, but with a big bottom lip, just like his mama. the next few days were very draining for the both of us. no sleep, a lot of crying and tons of poopy diapers, yuck. now that gavin's almost four months old it's a totally different story. he's such a happy and healthy (chunky) baby, sleeping through the night, rolling over and now he's getting his first tooth! everyday i am so thankful that he is in my life. although there are some days that i would love to be alone, all day, seeing him smile or hearing him mumble that thought is quickly passed.

i love gavin more than anything else in the entire world. we have a perfect family... and for now, the three of us is just fine. maybe in a couple years- two at least, we'll want an addition, but we are so happy and i don't want to take on anything else.
