Jaws III

Gabby's third tooth emerged today! We could see it below the gums all week and now we can feel it! So cute. It's her top right tooth, and the top left looks to be coming in soon after... Wish us good teething luck!

Cars, books, and my Dad...

Gabby's favorite things! She loves loves LOVES her wheely cars. She drives them all over the house. She also pushes her books everywhere too and laughs at how fast she can go! Mike likes to wrestle around with Gabby and hang her upside down. She's like a bat, seems pretty happy that way!

Ten Months!

Gabrielle is sheer joy these days. She is happy, happy, happy all the time. We soak up every minute with her and enjoy every move and sound she makes. In two short months, we will wrap up our first year together and even as I type this, my eyes fill up a little and I get a lump in my throat at this very thought.

Tonight, Gabby fell asleep in my arms before bed instead of squirming restlessly, waiting for me to put her into the crib where she usually settles in all by herself. With time flying by as quickly as it does, I can't help but eat up every sweet moment we are blessed with!

Family Vacation to Sunset Beach!!

Here we are in Sunset Beach, North Carolina! We had such a fun time together. Gabby loved the birds on the beach. She would clap when she saw them and squirm to get down and chase them on her hands and knees. She was a hambone as usual, and made friends everywhere we went. The folks in the south just ate her up!

Hanging out at the beach...

Here are some pics of Gabby taking over the beach condo. She loved zooming around all the rooms and furniture, and flashing the neighbors! We had a great time relaxing, playing games, and making Gabby laugh! Note: "relaxing" takes on a whole new meaning when you have a mobile 9 month old. We didn't exactly come home rested, but it was most definitely worth it to spend all week together!
