Hair Cuts!




Buddy, Maggie and Jace all got hair cuts :) I don't have an after picture of Jace or Maggie but they are cute! It's been a change for all of them sharing the attention with Gavin, but overall I think they are adjusting well. Every time Gavin cries all three of them run over to see what's going on. Jace is my little watch dog...he doesn't let me or Gavin out of his sight. He will jump up on the chair and look over at Gavin sleeping in his pack-in-play. Buddy can't wait for Gavin to get a little bigger so he has someone to play with.

Mom, Dad and Gavin!




Wow, what a week! Gavin is 8 days old and it's been the best week ever! I never in a million years would of thought sleeping 3 hours a night, sitting in a glider chair 4 plus hours a day, changing 5 diapers an hour, 10 loads of laundry and dealing with buttocks pain would be so much fun :) Yes, it's a lot of work but TOTALLY worth it!! Today Gavin went to the hospital to get his blood drawn and he didn't even make a sound. He is such a good boy. Mike and I are very greatful he is a new addition to our lives. Other than a few minor recovery complications with me, everyone is healthy, happy and doing very well. We appreciate all the help, love and prayers that have been in our behalf.

Gavin John Rich

Today is Tuesday night and Mike, Gavin and I are all doing very well! Mike and I still haven't slept a whole lot, but we are enjoying having our little guy home. I can't stop looking at him...it seems like his cute little face changes every hour :) He has been so good today- All he wants to do is eat (every 1 to 1 1/2 hours), poop, then sleep. He loves to be held, and even smiles when I clog with my hands on his back...I think he remembers when I did that on my tummy :)

Go to Gavin's very own blog to see pictures- Also check out his hospital picture by visiting http://www.mercygilbert.org (don't forget to sign his guest book)

Good Night!

Blog Issues...

Hello everyone, we finally got our blog updated again :) We would have done it sooner but Mike and I both forgot our password, so we had to completely delete our old account and create a new one. Don't worry, this time we wrote our password down (lets just hope we don't lose the paper it's written on!) This is also our second attempt at finishing our blog template today because we worked on it for about two hours, changed the template and deleted the whole thing! We're hoping the third time works out...
