One comment can make you think about alot....

One evening before Anthony got home from work Gavin and I went for a walk.  He loves his new stroller so walking is alot of fun now.  We were passing two different neighbors outside and one was carrying a baby.  Gavin of course wanted to see the baby and know exactly what they were doing.  The two kiddos just looked at eachother while the Mommy and I compared their ages.  The baby was 9 months and Gavin is 15 months.  Another neighbor walking by over heard this conversation and said to me 'You don't have a baby anymore.  He is a toddler.'  I nodded and agreed as Gavin and I went ahead and continued our walk.  I kept thinking to myself.. OMGosh... I have a toddler?!  I'm a mother of a toddler.  He's not a baby anymore.  It seemed crazy and almost unbelievable.  I can't believe how much Gavin has grown in just over a year and how fast the time has flown by.  Seems like just yesterday we were at the hospital with false labor!  :)  He is also getting so smart!!  He knows where his toes, eyes and nose are.  You can just see him absorbing everything.  He can say Max's name (our Golden Retriever AKA: Gavin's Buddy)..it does sound a little like Ma (without the X) but you know exactly who he is talking about.  He is the light of our world and we wouldn't change anything.  Anthony and I love Gavin more than anything in the world.
