A busy Sunday!

Yesterday was a busy day for Gabriel. He went to church, took a three hour nap, and went to a party! Here are some pictures from the highlights of his day.

Here Gabe is getting ready for Thanksgiving by trying stovetop stuffing for the first time.

Gabriel in his Zebra costume at the Reformation party!

Gabe won the costume contest... Here he is pictured with the competition.

Dad and Aaron as the Reformation party was wrapping up. Gabe's prize for winning the costume contest was a coloring book. We might have to help him with that for a while!

My little zebra was worn out from all the partying!

Fall Colors...

Gabriel has received a few cute Halloween items in the mail. Today he got all dressed up in them and we went outside to take a few pictures. He was kind of crabby but did a great job of smiling for the camera!

Thanks Auntie Holly and Uncle Dan for the cute socks and hat. His head was a little big for the hat, but it still looked darn cute!

I've been trying to teach him how to do SOOO Big! I don't think he was doing it here intentionally...

His blond wisps look great against the beautiful blue sky!

Check out his teeth!

Thanks Grand auntie Linda and Uncle Jim for my cute "Got Candy?" outfit. It fits perfect and is very comfy!

Spot Finder

Jimi -- A.K.A. "Spot Finder"

A long time ago Aaron and I took to calling Jimi the "spot finder" because she always find the best spots to curl up in! This is a large drawer where we keep Gabriel's bibs, kitchen towels and potholders. We left the drawer open after feeding Gabe and Jimi jumped in and laid down for awhile. She's so dang cute!

The weekend

Gabriel and I had a big weekend! We went to the Minneapolis area and back on Saturday for a baby shower! He partied too much and had to take a nap at the shower...


Here's a picture of us after we got home from the long road trip. Note the lovely drool.


This was tonight before Gabe went to bed. You can't see it too well but he has boogers crusted all over his nose! I think he's getting a cold or getting sick or something as he's been cranky and sleepy and has diaper rash and diarrhea? Maybe just getting more teeth. Who knows.

Finger Food!

Bill Payer?

Here Gabriel demonstrates some of his skills.

New Jammies

Gabriel tried out some new jammies tonight. Then he modeled them in our desk chair.

So tired!

Note the drool captured mid-drop from the mouth.
