You Are My Sunshine

Gavin Michael was born Wednesday June 10, 2009 at 9:09am. He was 7lbs. 14oz. and 19.75 inches long. He is absolutely perfect in every way! He has such a sweet disposition and he doesn't cry 20 hours a day like his sister did (much to the relief of his mother). He is such a wonderful addition to our family and we are all completely smitten with him.

These are his hospital pictures. They actually have a studio in the hospital that takes the baby pictures.






This is Gavin shortly after birth. I love how even the c-section babies have that swollen water-overload look.
Mommy and Gavin together for the first time! He is so precious. Don't you like the hair net??

Daddy and Gavin in recovery. Daddy was the first person to get to hold Gavin (besides the doctor and nurses). The nurse handed him to Ryan and Gavin fell silent for the first time. He cried from the time they pulled him out until they gave him to Ryan. How sweet!!

And of course the proud sister! Lexi is so in love with her little brother. She would sit and hold him all day if he would let her. But he seems to like mom some of the time too. Can't imagine why??
Isn't she so sweet? While we were in the recovery room, Gavin was crying and couldn't be consoled. Lexi began singing "You Are My Sunshine" and he fell silent. When she quit, he began again. So she started singing again, and he quit crying. She is now our little singer when Gavin is crying!
Our first family picture. This was the day we went home. What a sweet day!
