{ Hello! }

My name is Gavin. I am 11 months old. I was born with a genetic disorder called Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency that caused my liver to go into failure. I was misdiagnosed for 3 months and underwent emergency surgery before they found out what was wrong. I am on the Organ Donation List and am waiting for my "gift of life" so I can have a liver transplant. You can read about my story by clicking {here}. Thank you for visiting my online journal!

*It is our deepest sorrow to inform you that Gavin passed away while waiting to receive a liver transplant. He was only 14 days away from his 1st birthday. Please, if you haven't already, sign up to be a registered organ donor today and talk to your loved ones about your wishes: http://www.donatelife.net/. Thank you all so much for your love and support during this last year.

Photoshoot with Mommy

I realized we hadn't taken any "nice" pictures of Gavin for awhile, so I figured we needed to that sooner, rather than later! We went over to the park near our house, and Andre entertained Gavin while I snapped the pictures. There were a lot of cute ones...and some really silly ones, too! Ohhhh, this little boy makes me laugh!!! :)

Bethany, he is SO adorable! I love the hand in the mouth shots. And you did an awesome job--I need to hire you to come take pictures of my kids. I can hardly get Sadie to actually look at the camera these day (although the candid shots can be really cute). I feel like it's been forever since I've seen Gavin. He's so big!
