Gabe is 6 months old!

Okay, so I know that Gabe is 61/2 months old now and practically seven months but I guess pictures are better now than never. But for some credit these have been taken over the last couple of weeks!

This one is what I call the "Wuz up?" face. For those tv watchers: remember the super bowl commercials from a few years ago with everyone saying, "wuz up?" with their tongues hanging out? well, that is what I think of whenever Gabe does this!

Gabe almost rolling over but refusing to finish the process! Just hangin' out on his side. I know all kids do this it seems, but it never ceases to amaze me why not just roll over already?

Gabe likes to try to grab his bottle as soon as he spots it. These are of him trying to drink it himself. Maybe someday, he will actually get some!!!

"Hey, Mom! You lookin' at me?"

This one is at the Fancy Nancy party at the library! He is dressed up in what I deem his best outfit!

Playing in his jumperoo! I try to catch his smiles, but the flash always stuns him!

This video is of Gabe playing, he wasn't doing a whole lot this time, but at least you can see him jumping which is cute!




This video is also of him playing but he really isn't doing much at all. But you can hear the girls playing in the background which is pretty cute!

I love my cute, little squirts. They drive me crazy a LOT, but I sure do love them!

Hair cuts!!!

So we three girls wanted to be triplets, so here we are! It is a lot of fun and so much easier to deal with hair so short...and less tangles! Yipee!

The girls' Fancy Nancy Party

here is Gabe during the party being such a good boy. He is about 61/2 months old now--maybe I will put up some little videos of him soon.

Abby and Aiselyn are dressed up and ready to go to their party at the library featuring the Fancy Nancy books.

Here is a group picture with all the kids that came. Aiselyn and Abby are on the right side by Mrs. Debora who's in charge of these story time things every Thursday morning.

The girls listening to the story being read.

Here they are waiting so that they can eat and partake of the wonderfull goodies set before them. They had so much fun at this little party and they had been talking about going for a whole month. Everyday they would ask me, "is it the fancy nancy party today?" I'm glad it turned out well.

Eating the goodies!

Since it was the Thursday just before Valentine's Day, some of us passed out valentines for the little kids. It was the first time I have done valentines since I was a kid in elementary school, so I probably had more fun than they did even though they were the only ones that got the candy to eat. :(

catching up on a whole lot!!!--Gabe 5 months then Christmas in Arizona

So I have a ton to catch up on. I have been super busy it seems since we got back from Christmas vacation--what with cub scouts and preparing lessons to teach in relief society and talks for sacrament meeting and cleaning the house and Abby's birthday and putting away Christmas decorations. It has been a mad house around here!

Here is Gabe at 5 months attempting food for the first time!

It didn't go too well at first! These are just gabe and the rest of the family during the past month since he is almost 6 months now.

These pictures are from Abby's 4th birthday party we had this past weekend! She wanted a pink princess castle cake.

Blowing out the candles which she still hasn't got the hang of at 4 years old!

We went to Bass Pro Shop one day in Arizona and they had a Santa there. The girls thought that was pretty cool. He handed out those little peppermint candy canes and they wouldn't eat them because they are minty! Silly girls!

They love to lift little weights for exercise so we got them some for Christmas. Here, Abby had been posing for pictures for quite awhile and her face shows it. Awesome!

We all went to this cool park with a carousel and riding train and slides and things. This one is of us three mothers carrying our babes (me and gabe, my sister Kristi and Charlie, and my sister-in-law with Amaya--I hope I am spelling her name right) I love you guys!

Me, Gabe, my mother, and my sister Kristi

Aiselyn playing in the sand looking way cute!

Aiselyn and Abby playing on the playground.

Here we are on the carousel. Tommy was taking the pictures!

This is the cool train we got to ride. This was actually on Christmas Eve so the place was closing up, but at night there would have been really cool lights to go through and see during the train ride...too bad we couldn't have done that too, but still it was way cool!

This was pretty cute. Aiselyn is in the red train with her cousin Lydia, Ethan is in the snowman, Abby is in the penguin, Tommy is in the elf, and my brother Bryan is in the background with Connor.

Abby and Daddy

Abby put on her uncle Rob's old football helmet one morning. Isn't she cute?

Gabe was enjoying her show!

The cousins were all playing dress up together. Lydia, Aiselyn, Abby, and Ethan. The dresses were huge on them and they kept slipping all over the floors. It was really funny but they kept getting back up and trying to lift the dresses to walk. Silly kids!

The kids all glued to the tube one morning. Can you guess what show they were watching?

Answer: The Backyardigans. I thought it interesting that the show came out so well. I guess it really is a super awesome new tv, dad!
