My Baby Boy


Baby Boy you stay on my mind, fulfill my fantasies.

I think about you all the time, I see you in my dreams.


I Love Gavin so much. I think about him all the time, more and more. When I'm driving to work, while I'm at work, when I'm driving home from work. He is my motivation for waking in the morning (sorry Microsoft, it's not the job). At the end of each work day, I am so excited to go home and see my cute baby!

When I'm at home, I always have to remind myself to turn off the TV or computer, so that I can cherish the time with Gavin. He will only be tiny and cute for a relatively short time, then it won't be so cute and fun once he walks, runs, and jumps!

For the last 3 days, the Precious One has been nursing a mild cold, with a runny and stuffy nose. I feel so sorry for him at night because it's tough for him to sleep with a stuffy nose. He relies on his pacifier to soothe him for sleep, but he is forced to spit it out when he can't breathe through his nose. :(

I wish so much that I could ease the discomfort for him, so I've been more deliberate and consistent in sucking the snot out of his nose with the baby bulb syringe, and also twisting some Q-tips in his tiny nose to get the snot out.

I know that this is only the tip of the iceberg, so I'm bracing myself and dreading the days when he will encounter greater difficulties that will break my heart (like maybe not getting along with other kids at school because they are jealous of his brilliance, or not performing so well in a class that he likes, or losing his first baseball game).

The Cutest One!

Welcome to Gavin's blog, a place where we post pictures and share baby stories. We chose the name Gavin because it rhymes with Dad's name "Kevin", but starts with the letter "G" for Mommy's name "Grace". So we figured Kevin + Grace = Gavin?

Tech Toys


I love my Toshiba Portege M200 Tablet PC. It's so versatile with its touch-screen and rotational display. It is light-weight and portable, despite the trade-off of having only a 12.1" display. Oh well, still good enough to run 1024x768 resolution for me!


I also appreciate these aspects of my Tablet:


  • Built-in 802.11g/b wireless communication (for wireless, high-speed Internet connections)

  • Built-in Bluetooth wireless communication (for sending and receiving pictures and videos between your cell/wireless phone and PC)

  • Built-in memory card slot that reads Secure Digital (SD) memory cards, the same format as my Canon digital camera!

  • Easy to draw sketches and write notes quickly with stylus
