My New Favorite Toy!

They are old fashioned and he LOVES THEM!! Blocks. Good old wooden blocks.




It only took hm a few seconds to learn how to stack them. Though, he only has patients to stack three or four before he can't wait to knock them down.

Stacking (by the height of the stack, obviously Mom is helping.)


WHACK! The best part!!

FIRST SNOW!!!!

He thinks snow is AWESOME! Untill it get's in his glove of course. He wouldn't go far from my side, but he loved to touch it.

He would blow at it like he does the bubbles in the bath tub... not quite Dude.


His sidekick.

Oh Goodie....

He's learned a new trick.

I'm so glad when Daddy comes home!

The anticipation is more than they can handle. If ever I need a moment of peace while Hector is gone somewhere, all I have to do is say "Gabe! Where's Dad? I think I here him! GO look out the window!" And off he runs, with Toby on his heels. ( I do not do this on week long trips, that is just cruel!)



His car! His car!

I hear him Mom! He's almost here!

DADDY! Your back! ( doubt Gabe gets this excited when I'm gone, oh well, we can't all be a favorite can we?)

Watch out Girls! This Cutie cleans too!

Wow, did I really do it? Am I REALLY raising a gorgeous, sweet boy who ACTUALLY cleans up after himself? I hope so! He loves to help me wipe up the kitchen.




Keep it up kid! The girls won't know what hit them!




Baking Cupcakes with Mom

Obviously we are not baking these for lack of treats in our house. As you can see by the large doughnut in Gabes mouth, Dad keeps out supply running high. These were for something else, I forget what.... Oh well, Gabe had lots of fun!


This is the only power tool he is allowed to touch. Quite embarrassing for a big boy I'm sure. ( By the way, the one sock thing is the new look of the season!;)

Mmmmmm! Worth the wait! No Aunt Cindy, we did not put them back in the batter after they were licked, in fact Gabe would not let them out of his sight. They turned out great by the way!
