Happy 1st Birthday Gabe!

Present time! I am not sure you have any idea what your goal is here, or what the box is that you just took the paper off of, but you LOVE to rip the wrapping paper! Forget the toys! Bring on the paper!

With a little help from cousin Adam, the paper is coming off.

Thanks for the books Grandma and Grandpa Harris!

Aunt Laura, showing Gabe how the basket ball hoop works. Your a natural, dude!

Here is Gabe with all his birthay gifts, the dump truck is definatly his favorite. Gabe never left it alone whole night, and still, a few days later, it is his favorite toy.

You've had a Birthday Shout Hooray!

We had a sports themed party for Gabe's big Numero Uno! I made him a 2 layer chocolate cake with a baseball on the top. Friends and family came over and we played and sang happy birthday. Then Gabe got to eat his birthday cake all by himself. At this point, he is just testing the water, you know, see if I jump for a wipee the moment his fingers touch the frosting?

It's okay, really.

I am not sure how much actually made it in his mouth, but he is enjoying it regardless. It was all fun until Uncle Steve put a scoop of ice cream on his tray, he didn't like the cold sliding down his tummy very much.

Yuuummmm!!! This is awesome!

My Crib

It is amazing to me how badly Gabe does not want to go to sleep. If someone put me in a bed and told me to go to sleep I would be SO excited. Oh, you'll miss these days of rest Gabe, trust me!

He's so cute, isn't he?
