Our Sunday Adventure...
One day a few weeks ago Andy comes home and says that he heard on the radio that Playhouse Disney Live was coming to town. (Well, Wenatchee which is like an hour away.) He says he thinks it would be fun to take the kids to a live show like that. Mickey Mouse, Whinnie the Pooh, Tigger and some other characters from Disney morning cartoons. I of course am thrilled, I would love to take the kids. Last Sunday, I get up and get the kids all ready for church. This is them all ready to go. We go to church, Gabriel races to the nursery, crys when I leave and is better within 10-15 seconds after I am out the nursery door. We come home eat lunch and then its off to Disney. Wet get to our seats the show starts and Gabriel is mesmerized. He is way into it, but he can't move he's so into it. Savannah on the other hand thinks its fabulous. She is moving all over the place kicking her feet and having a grand ol time. Needless to say the kids LOVED Disney. I can't wait to have more adventures with the kids. They make Andy and I so happy!!!

I feel like my little Savannah gets overlooked when it comes to the blog and pictures sometimes. I am sure that is somewhat due to her age and the fact that when you take the camera out Gabriel can now say "cheese" and smile really big. The other day I took the camera out with then intention of taking just some pictures of her all by her lonesome. The one you see is my favorite. That is little miss Savannah right there. The happiest baby in the world. She laughs, eats a ton, and is plain ol happy all the time. This morning myself, Gabriel and Savannah were all hanging out in the bed watching morning cartoons. I look over and Gabriel is laying on top of her and she is giggling with excitement. She thinks this is too funny. I am worried about him squishing her and she could care less. The other day she was napping in the swing and I heard her laugh. I come around the corner and he has climbed on top of her in the swing and is playing peek-a-boo. I'm worried the swing will break she again is having the time of her life. I can't wait to see how they interact as the get older. I am so blessed to have two wonderful children. One wild man and one happy litttle girl!

Gabriel's Hats




As you can see from the pictures above Gabriel is going through a hat phase. I can remember trying when he was younger to get him to wear hats. If it lasted longer than 5 seconds we were doing good. Now it seems to work in reverse. If the hat is off longer than 5 seconds there is an emotional break down, followed by "peas, peas, peas" until the hat is back on. (P.S. peas is Gabriel speak for please.) I think I put the Bengals hat on about 20 times this morning before we even left the house. There was also a point this morning where is was wearing the Bengals hat and wanted to wear the drawer on his head too. We had to then have a talk about how we can only wear one hat at a time, the Bengals hat or the clear plastic drawer hat. Now, I am sure you are wondering why I am even calling that a hat. I call it that because it is worn as a hat EVERY DAY!!! We have three drawers where all the toys are kept. The one that holds the blocks is ALWAYS empty and usually worn on Gabriel's head. Which then in turn means the blocks are all over the living room floor, he's not playing with them just walking around with his clear plastic drawer hat on. So, the other day when his friends were over to play, two drawers full of toys lay on the living room floor and they played in the kitchen with the drawers on their heads. Similar to playing with the boxes at Christmas instead of the toys. Lastly, there is his daddy's welding cap. That one is only when daddy comes home and he laughs as he steals it from Andy and puts it on his head.
Three hats, three different personalities. He is becoming such the little man!
