What a crazy few weeks we have had since being back from our trip to Iowa. When we returned, that Monday night, Gavin got a bad cold. It was his first ailment and we felt so bad for him. We went out right away and got some drops for his nose and a humidifier. Well, a week later, it still wasn't getting any better, so Mom took him to the doctor. Sure enough, Gavin had an ear infection! So he was put on amoxacilin for 10 days, you know, the yummy bubble gum stuff! So, this past Wednesday was his last dose and then yesterday morning, he woke up with hives! So off to the doctor again! Good news, his infection was all cleared up and the doctor couldn't tell us why he was getting these hives. We have been giving him benedryl then yesterday and today, hopefully they clear up soon!
Although gAvin has been a little sick, he never let it get him down. Just in the past week he has changed so much! He really has discovered his voice and it comes from down deep in his gut, it is so cute. One morning, he layed in his bed for half and hour and talked to him self while Alex and I listened. He is also sitting upright much better. Those little abs of his are getting stronger and stronger each day.
Last but not lease, we recieved wonderful news that Alex got an offer from the company that he was really interested in. We have been axiously awaiting news for the past week. Happy Friday and Merry Christmas to us!
I am posting a few more pics of Gavins life during his fourth month. He is now five months, can you believe it?!

We just looked at the pictures and they are very nice. Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
