Gavin Forbes Miner


Yes, we have finally decided on a name (see above). This was actually our number one choice but we had a hard time committing until he was born. Some of the other names we liked were either too popular (Ethan) or clashed with our last name (Cole). But Gavin was in our minds for about 4 months and in the end it prevails. Plus, the meaning is really cool. It actually means "White Hawk of Battle" and comes from the name of one of the knights of the round table. Anyway, you can look it up.

Also, everyone came home Tuesday afternoon and both mother and baby are doing well. He loved his car ride home (see picture) and we are very excited to finally be home as a family.

Congrats again! Although I may hate you forever for taking that name - I guess I'll just have to have a girl next time around ;-D I'm sure he looks like his mommy, too, but all I'm seeing is Sean!
XOXO

What a beautiful baby! I really love the name that you chose, and I am glad that you didn't name him Cole Miner haha (I'm sure he is too)

I would love to get a call from you, but I totally understand that you are busy and sleep deprived with the new addition to your home. I just hope all is well with you and baby Gavin! I really want to come visit soon and hold that little baby boy!
