Gabriel's first road trip to Murray

This weekend we have journeyed to Murray. Gabriel's cousins Morgan and Hailey are in town from Kansas City and we wanted to come see them. This is the farthest from home Gabriel has ever been!! He slept the whole way to Murray, it was a wonderful drive. We ate at Dumplins, one of my favorite restaurants in town, it was delicious!!! Gabriel loves everybody! He's having such a wonderful time. We put him in the exersaucer and he just sits there and watches everything!

Going to Granny's House

So not a whole lot has been going on these past few weeks. I returned to work on Thursday April 1st, and then started working full weeks the next week. Gabriel has adjusted well going over to "granny's" house. Everybody calls her Granny. She is really a lovely woman named Brenda who conveniently lives right across the street from us. He LOVES her. She also keeps a sweet 1 year old little girl, Jaklyn. Evidently Jaklyn loves to pull off Gabriel's socks because she'll go up to him, yank his sock off and then laugh. She's a ham! Gabriel loves going to Granny's house. Granny has a 3 1/2 year old grandson who loves talking to Gabriel. Granny said that Eric will sit there and just jabber away to Gabriel and Gabriel will just stare at him and smile! Gabriel is growing up so fast. He's holding his head up so good. He had his shots this past Friday. He was such a trooper. He weighed in at a whopping 11 pounds 14 ounces and was 23 1/4 inches long.

GABRIEL 6, 7, AND 8 WEEKS OLD

2 months already

It's hard to believe that our baby is already 2 months old. He is growing so fast! He's developing a personality and it's hillarious! He makes the funniest faces and does the sweetest things. He's starting to make "cooing" noises and other sounds. He loves to stick his tongue out. He's also discovered the art of kicking his legs. If he's ever crying or upset and we're in the process of picking up, he gets those legs going 90 nothing. He also kicks while he is eating and when he sits in his swing or bouncy. He really knows how to make the bouncy seat bounce too! This morning when I went to his room to get him out of his crib he was laying cross ways in his crib so he's moving around a lot more. He's such a sweet little person!
