baby gavin continued

So, we made it to Tim and Carla's Wednesday night around 10:30 Saskatchewan time. About 10 minutes after we made it in the door Rhett managed to squish his finger in their brand new recliner chair! The result was a swollen finger tip and a purple fingernail. After our grand entrance things went a little smoother! Gavin didn't seem bothered by the extra noise and activity as he was passed around, and passed around and passed around again. The main items on the agenda, other than meeting Gavin, was to get a room ready for him and re-arrange the living room to accommodate the new furniture. I wasn't sure the bedroom project would happen, as it was a room full of other stuff! But it did happen, and turned out very well in my opinion - green and brown with blue accents. Was kind of nice to see the crib again! Now they have a dresser and some cloth baskets for the shelving unit ... so these photos are already outdated! The living room project was fun too - a major transformation there with a nice new couch and chair ... and a new glider since we were there. We were spoiled by Tim's mom and her provisions ... casserole, chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter cookies, brownies and snowman sugar cookies. She must have thought we were big eaters ... so we had to eat and eat! We also had a few photo shoots with the little man. on Sunday he was so adorable in his big boy clothes! Was fun to pass on a pile of baby clothes - and reminisce how small and cute my kids were at one time! Now we've almost been home a week, and Carla tells me he's grown already. I don't think the trip gets any shorter .. but until next time ... we love you baby Gavin!
