A Perfect Birthday

On Gavin's actual birthday, he was lucky enough to spend the day doing some of his favorite things...playing, napping, swimming in the pool, dancing and getting LOTS of attention. Since the guys of the Yonker family were going on a work golf trip, the ladies (my mom, Heather, Lorien and I) along with Gavin, headed down to Naples for a long weekend. The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed lots of R&R. Gavin and I actually were delayed going down for one day as he was fighting a cold or something and was running a very high temp. So...after a very challenging day of travel--just me and Gavin getting to the airport, going through security, taking a 2 hour 45 min airplane ride over naptime (when there was no napping and when he was still a bit under the weather)--all by ourselves...we finally made it there. Gavin loved the warm weather and all the attention. The only thing missing on his big day was Daddy. :(

Gavin rocking his very first Speedo!

Much to his father's chagrin...Mom was loving this look!
And seriously...I know the combo is so bad but I couldn't stop myself.

Of course, lot of playing with Grandma....

...and Auntie Lorien...

Typical guy...loves just hanging around naked.

Livin the high life...eating outside in his diaper only.

Followed up with a birthday treat.
The next morning, he was helping with the dishes.
