HAPPY BIRTHDAY GABBIE GRACE!


I can't believe it has been a year since Gabbie was born! She is 1!!!

Oh, what a year it has been! Truly, she has been so incredibly easy since the moment she was born. She has added so much to our lives and to our family.

Here are some things about Gabbie now!

She loves her daddy! Lights up every time she sees him.
If he is downstairs, she will sit at the gate at the top of our stairs and yell "Dad!" over and over again until he comes up
She can say dog, hi, dad, mom and uh-ho
If I am stern with her (like when she is standing up in the bath), she will say "hi" but totally in a tone that says she is making sure I am not mad at her
She loves her bath - always has
Favorite food is blueberries
She has 5 teeth, 3 on bottom & 2 on top
She loves playing with other kids
She loves books - we call her a speed reader since she likes to flip through the pages as fast as she can
She can point out where mom and dad's noses are
She can point out Bobo in the book "Hug"
Loves Patty-cake, especially rolling and tossing it!
She loves her dogs!
Started really walking this week
Loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse - especially the Hot Dog song
Loves to dance
Great sleeper - when she is tired, she literally dives for her bed
Has only been "sick" once, other than a couple runny noses

Oh, how we love our little Gabbie Grace. We are so grateful she is happy, healthy and such a joy to be around!

What a year it has been... looking forward to all that lies ahead!

I can't believe it - a year! She truly is a sweetheart and it's been so fun to watch her grow (and you, too!) over the past year. And beware those easy 1st babies; they trick you into having another one... hehe

Reading your line about the Hot Dog song brought back so many memories. That was a favorite at our house too. You and Kylie are great parents and Gabbie is a special girl. I'm so happy for you!
