"For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made, your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:13-14

Here is Gavin at 10 weeks... Christmas time :) He is doing great !!! He is such a sweetie. He loves sleeps thru the nite and loves his swing... He nurses now but I still takes a bottle because I do not make enough milk... but he actually nurses now :) He is a big boy and just so sweet! I am blessed. Early intervention comes every week and he will see the ENT the 19th to check his hearing. I think he hears just fine :) He will see the doctor again in February for his 4 mo. check-up and will see the Cardiologist in June to evaluation his ASD. I pray it is closed by then :) I am truly blessed !!! Thank You Jesus :)
I started this blog to note and celebrate Gavin's life. He is such a precious gift from God that I appreciate so much. I wish he did not have DS but we will make it one day at a time :)
This is a new blog celebrating and noting our journey with our new son Gavin who has down syndrome. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was scheduled to have a C-section 10/28/08 but when I was just 37.2 weeks I went into labor. Our son Gavin Russell was born 10/16/08 at 11:30 am via C-section. Gavin weighed 8 lbs and 6 oz and was 21 inches long. After Gavin was born and before they tied my tubes we found out about Gavin having down syndrome by the doctors saying " are you sure you want your tubes tied, it looks like he has down syndrome." We were shocked to say the least. I went ahead and had my tubes tied and our journey with DS began. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I know Gavin is a true gift from God and even though I wish with everything that I am that he did not have DS I love him so and will get through this one day at a time.
