Ohhh the sweetness from this 3 month old. Time has gone by in the blink of a dream. And now at the end of the 4th trimester, I have a full on baby, whose smiles flow freely with laughs nipping at their heels. @metalteepee’s mini without a doubt, he has a button nose and wonder in his eyes. How lucky I am to have him as my sidekick, to have watched his eyelashes grow in and curl, to hear him discover his gentle voice, to squeeze his chubby thighs. Baby Gavin aka Bronco aka my Little Hawk, I never want to let you out of my arms. by @metalteepee

We have been time-traveling ✨ baby boy Gavin Michael Matheson was born five weeks early on May 2. Weighing in at 6.9 lbs and 20”, he has been strong and healthy and has met the challenges of arriving early as best as we could have imagined. I have been so grateful for it all — his health, his big brother’s resilience and openness, @metalteepee’s love (and ability to handle EVERYTHING), so much great care at the hospital, and the support from the village. Lots of love 💛 by @metalteepee
