Baton Rouge Zoo Trip
















It's official, Gavin loovvees animals! He was giggling at the giraffes, learning new moves from the monkeys, feeding the fish, and trying to stick his hands in all the cages. lol. It was a nice, cool, sunny day just perfect for a stroll around the zoo. My parents, Terri and Steve, came with us and we had a blast!

Bath Time!


Now that he's older he loves playing with his toys and splashing around in the bath tub!! We enjoy it too! Especially when we spike his hair in to a mohawk! lol

Lil Mankins is 8 months old!

Being 8 months old is sooo tiring!
Gavin can now sit up by himself, rollover both ways, feed himself finger foods, and can almost pull himself up to standing by himself!! We are soo proud of our little man, but it's heartbreaking thinking of all the time that has gone already. Just Bittersweet.

Time for sippy cup!

Wasn't sure how Gavin would react to the Sippy Cup, but he will be 6 months tomorrow and is able to drink juice. So I started him last night. He loved the Apple Juice, and actually held his own cup! We're so proud, he's a Big Boy!! lol

Solids!


My Big Man is on Cereal now!! We started him about a week ago on rice cereal. It took him a couple of weeks to get in to the swing of things. Once we changed him to Oatmeal, he gets very excited about Breakfast and Dinner time!


His first meal of Oatmeal, he ate the entire bowl, then began sucking off the extra oatmeal on his hands and arms. When he ran out he stuck his tongue out and began licking the sides of his cheeks! (Apparently he likes Oatmeal.hehe)
