Easter Sunday 2006. Time for dessert!!

Gavin checking out his new basketball and hoop - birthday presents from Nana and Papa Fin.

Look at my birthday card Dad.

Gavin making his first dunk.

Gavin going straight for the toys at Nana and Papa Fin's.

"Dads make the best pillows."

A book about colors from Jama and Charlie.

oooh...books and CD's from Paula and Ed in Boalsburg.

Gavin's face suggest he is overwhelmed by the gifts.

Time to do some unwrapping.

A special gift from Jama and Charlie.

"Dad, why is there something on fire in front of you?"

Yes! One year old today!

"Why are you singing?"

Something different for "the prince."

Hmmm...apparently the cupcake was not an immediate hit.

Oh, the promise of a yet-to-be-unwrapped-gift.

"Mom sure did pick out a confusing present. Which parts of this thing make noise?"

Gavin seems to understand the concept of the drum.

Gavin checking out one of his new toys.

Working up to some real noise with the drum.

"Inside the drum, there are more things?"

Leaning on his chair...

"Ahhh...that cupcake was good after all."

"Let's go!"

...slobbering over the queen...

Even with his new teeth, Gavin has more than he can chew here.

Surrounded by toys...

One has to find just the right block...

"What? No, I wasn't pulling things out of the cabinet."

Gavin, Katie, and uncle Ethan playing together.

Gavin thinking about his next move.
