Bob Bob

gavin has a new favorite word and a new favorite person: bob bob! a couple of weeks before kevin's parents came to visit for thanksgiving, gavin started saying "bob bob" whenever we would talk about "ta ta bob" (brooke's name for grandpa) or see him on the webcam. that was my first clue. then bob bob showed up at our house, and the rest was history. gavin is just naturally drawn to his grandpa. he loves him. big time. there are few things in life sweeter than seeing your son with his grandpa. they were best buds during the two weeks grandma and grandpa were in town. gavin was always sitting on his lap or yelling his name or playing with his bob bob. i'm not sure who enjoyed it more - gavin or bob, but gavin is still talking about his bob bob every single day. tonight we walked in the house from outside and gavin said "bob bob. bubbles" because, yes, his bob bob got all bundled up and went outside in the cold to blow bubbles with him. bob bob also taught gavin how to play zingo, how to mix cookie dough by hand, how to pick out a christmas tree, how to go sledding, how to enjoy some good old whipped cream straight out of the can... gavin taught bob bob who "pink" (the singer) is, how to play music videos on the computer and how to navigate mommy's iphone :) they have a special relationship, and i'm excited to see it grow.
