Our BIG helper!

Since we've brought Olivia home, Tony and I have been careful to emphasize all the things Gavin can do because he's a BIG BOY that Olivia can't do because she's a baby. The result is a little boy that LOVES to help with everyday chores. Here is Gavin helping mommy do the dishes AND warm up Livie's bottle:



Let's just hope that our "helper" still enjoys doing these things 10 years from now!

Gavin has also been amazing about wanting to help with the baby. As soon as she wakes up, the first thing out of Gavin's mouth is, "Mommy...change the baby's diaper?" Before I even have a chance to pick her up, he's over by her changing area and has a diaper out exclaiming, "Here you go MOM!"

Here's Gavin waiting patiently for Olivia to be done with her bath so he can help get her dressed:

And Miss Olivia enjoying her first "real" bath: her umbilical cord fell out Wednesday, so she can finally be submerged in the water!
