6 Months:

















9 Months:

Baby it's Hot Outside ...

... and rainy! We were stuck inside today, so I decided to grab my camera and take a few shots of Mr. Gabe. Enjoy!






Check out his first tooth! He's getting another right next to it




His hair is starting to grow, finally!








Gabe loves his new blankie that his Nanny D bought him ...






He especially loves playing peek-a-boo with it!

9 Months ...

I can't believe it ... our baby is 9 months old!! He is keeping us busy, but we are loving every minute of it! It is so fun to see him learn and just take everything in! I've been so bad about posting ... sorry! Here are some updates about our little guy ...

He is starting to crawl ... army style!

He is starting to pull up to stand

He can tip up his sippy cup all by himself

He finally has a tooth breaking through ... that's right, just one

He loves playing with/around other kiddos ... his best buddy is Layton!

He loves swimming

He loves cracker barrel green beans and biscuits

He loves bananas

He still loves jumping in his jumper

He loves Old McDonald, You are My Sunshine, and Itsy Bitsy Spider

He loves books ... I hope this love lasts forever!

His favorite toys are his tractor with animals, his steering wheel, and his bucket of monkeys, barrels, and bananas

He belly laughs when Daddy sniffs the back of his neck like a dog ... way cute!

Oh my, we LOVE him so much!!!



Gabe was a little distracted during this photo shoot ... I think I took more pictures of the back of his head than his face : (



























I took these over the weekend ... once again, I could hardly get him to look at the camera!!
