Two Months!

Egads, how time flies! Our little boy is two months old! It seems like just yesterday that he was a tiny little newborn, and now our tank is 14 pounds, 3 ounces and 24 inches long! His personality has changed a lot over the last 4 weeks, and now he is super chill and extremely happy (unless of course he's hungry, in which case he still screams bloody murder). He really doesn't deserve his "tyrant" moniker, but we keep it around anyway. He is the best thing on earth, and we're both COMPLETELY obsessed with him. It's hard to imagine a time before we had a child, and why would we want to?!

Impossibly Adorable Towel Time

This is Gavin at around 7 weeks... he was in a particularly great mood after his bath and I grabbed the camera. What follows is pure photographic gold (if you ask us!).








Gavin 6-7 Weeks

This week, I had to go back to work :( Being away from my boy was the hardest thing I've ever had to do... but we managed, and he had a blast at Grandma's. Now our morning routine of bath and playtime is the best hour of my day... and all day I wait for that incredible moment when I get him back in my arms. While being away from him is awful, it sure does make being with him that much more amazing. 

Is it Fall Break yet?

Coming home from work is WONDERFUL!

Vegas! Visiting Grandpa Bill and Grammy Mary

We took Gavin on a 5-hour road trip when he was 5 and a half weeks old... YES we are nuts! The road trip was really difficult, but it was absolutely worth it to see the looks of joy on my parents' faces :) It was adorable seeing them be grandparents to little Gavin. He loved them, and I'm pretty sure they were big fans as well!

Look who Gavin got his porcelain skin tone from!

In this picture, you can see some Erickson resemblance!



So serene 


He loves his Grammy!


We took a drive to the Red Rocks



Driving back home...

Gavin 5 Weeks-ish

Today is blog catch-up day :) Geoff and I just uploaded 4 weeks worth of photos, and we just can't get over how much our little nugget has grown. It truly boggles the mind. He just gets cuter and cuter each and every day... we're so in love with him.
