Like father, like son.

When dad goes to mow the lawn Gavin just stands at the door looking out and cries until I let him out to help. Well every time I do, Nate gets upset because he can't watch him and mow at the same time.

So when I was at the store one day I saw a lawn mower that blows bubbles. I bought it and set it up the next day. Gavin absolutely loved it. He loved it so much he could not part from it even for a second. He pushed it all around the house all day long. When it came time to go to bed he cried and cried for it.

The next morning when I went to get Gavin from his crib I saw him sitting in his crib with the lawn mower. I guess when Nate put him to bed he decided to let him sleep with the lawn mower so he would stop crying and go to bed.

The next day I refused to let him sleep with the lawn mower but when he woke up in the morning the first thing he did was point at the lawn mower and cry.

The lawn mower has now lost the magic it had for those first few days, but Gavin still loves to mow the lawn with his dad...he is such a big helper.

That is one of the cutest pictures! You will have to frame it! Super cute story...I think it is funny that Nate let him sleep with the mower...you are such a pushover Nate (hahaha)!

That is the cutest story ever! I love it when Gavin finds something he likes and just wants it all the time. That makes me laugh that Nate thought to put the mower in bed with him... haha.

I got a little tear in my eye when I saw the picture of Gavin. He is getting big! It seems like every time I see a new picture of him he looks different. Miss you guys a lot.
