Funny Face

I will pose for one Picture and one Picture ONLY!



Take this darn hat off of me!


Fine! I'll do it myself!

If I act really cute will you remove the hat?

Elmo Butt!

So I got a really cute outfit from some friends (James and Sarah-Aaron works with James) and it has become my favorite outfit (the blue one) I just love it and it is so supercute on Gabriel. The outfit has an adorable matching hat, which Gabriel just hates to wear. He doesnt cry but he pullsthe funniest faces because it makes his eyebrows all scrunch up. Anyway, being a mean mommy, I had to put the hat on and take pictures. I know I say this all the time, but my kid is so cute. He loves to get compliments! He just smiles and coos and laughs everytime someone tells him how handsome he is.

Nothing too exciting is going on, Aaron and I are just working and trying to get some sleep. I did get a cheesecake sent to me in the mail from my friend Cambia. The best part was it was from the Cheesecake Factory- only the best cheesecake ever! A whole keylime cheesecake, but I was instructed to share with Kara! The reason for the cheesecake must remain a secret, but I was really excited for it! P.S.- I really am going to send out thank you cards and announcements one of these days. It for me is really hard to find time with working and taking care of Gabe. I am not the best multi-tasker. I do really appreciate all the things we recieved!

CUTE VIDEO

Finally! It took three trys, but I finally got this video posted. This was taken on March 17th and I love it because he was so talkative. I was originally holding the camera in my hands but he would pay attention to me if the camera was in front of my face. So I set the camera down, so I could have a little conversation. So it starts off slow and then gets better so give it a few seconds. We have a video of him laughing but we need to edit it because it is really long. There are some parts that are just aaron making funny noises (which is somewhat entertaining). Anyway we are happy and having a really good week, so far. Aaron bought me twighlight (he is so great, it was a surprise gift) and we are watching it, so I better get back to the teenage drama! LOL!

Two months old!

Hehe! I love this picture above! He really was not happy with me. Check out the bib! So true!

Well Gabe is now over two months old and getting so big!

11 1/2 lbs.

23 inches long

Head: 39 inches

I had to work, so Aaron took Gabriel to this appointment. Which I was okay with, because I was not quite sure how I would handle the whole shot thing. Gabe did great considering all the shots. Aaron said he cried for ten seconds and then sucked on his paci. He is developing right on track! He has a really good strong neck, tracks, smiles, laughs, and this week he just started to hold on to toys and he discovered his hands. Luckily his shot did not cause too many problems. He did NOT get a fever (that was a big relief for me) and only woke up twice (usually sleeps through the night) that first night and then went back to normal.

Two day late Gabe had a developmental screening and turned on the charm for the ladies. The developmental preschool goes to all the daycares in town to do a screening for free. I did not realize that they can screen so young. He passed with flying colors and we found out we can do a free vision screening when he is six months old.

It is spring break this week and I am spending time at home with Gabe. This weekend we did surprise my mom with a visit-just for sunday afternoon. It was great. We showed up at church and Aaron and I sat in the pew that my parents typically occupy. My parents came in (Dale knew we were coming- good job keeping the secret!) and my mom saw someone sitting in the pew they normal sit at. She finally realized it was us and she just got the biggest smile on her face. Of course Gabe made sure to distract us all during the meeting with smiles and coos for grandma! We hung out till pretty late in the evening and then headed home to laramie. It was a short visit but fun.

I tried posting the cutest video of Gabriel cooing and smiling but the video did not want to upload, so I will try it later with Aarons help. I dont know what I am doing wrong. But here are some cute pictures in the meantime.

Tired of tummy time.






My hair is growing back!!!




Mom you are soooo FUNNY!







Happy St. Patricks day!
