A few pictures for Pa

He'll understand...

And one from the pumpkin patch from Saturday!

Catch up!

Opps! I let September slide by without any posts!! Gabe is growing so much and changing everyday. I thought I should do a "cute things he says" post. But honestly, most everything he says and does is cute to us! Like, he's started saying "I love you" alot. It's so sweet, he'll cuddle up beside me on the couch and say "I love you mama". He also likes to love on his baby sister. Kind of a hard concept for him to grasp since she is still in my tummy, but he will pull up my shirt sometimes and give "Weela" (aka Layla) a kiss or a hug. And occasionally he will even give her his paci! He doesn't let have it for long but he will say "please" when he wants it back!

He also copies things you say now so you have to be very careful! I spilled my water all over the kitchen table the other night and said "Oh crap" and sure enough, what did Gabe say...

When we were at Walmart Saturday, he saw a Bob the Builder potty seat and he WANTED it! I asked him if I bought for him would he use it and he said "Yep" (Yep is his new things now, we try "m'am and sir" but it's not catching on too fast). So I bought it. I've been putting him on it before he gets in the bubbles at night and last night he sat there long enough and peed in the potty! He was SO proud of himself. He just grinned from ear to ear.

And speaking of Walmart, he is obsessed with the place! I don't know what it is. Last night the commercial for the Jungle Book movie came on and Daddy said, "Gabe mama needs to get you that movie" and he said "We go to Walmart?". Um no, not at 9pm, not on a school night anyway!!

He is doing great with his language skills. He can say pretty much anything he wants to say and he puts sentences together very well. Sometimes he says "Gabe's" or "Gabe" instead of mine or I but sometimes he says it the correct way too. He expresses himself and lets you know his needs and wants very well. He is addicted to "Chololate Milkshake" all of a sudden (chocolate milk). I guess it's better than all of the apple juice he used to consume! And this way I can skimp a little on the chocolate part if I need to and he is still getting his calcium!

He is certainly a joy to us with all that he does and says. I know he is going to make a great big brother! His little sister Layla Grace will be here via C-section on November 30th! Guess we'll find out then...

And now for a few pictures!!

UGA tailagate day at school
Throwing rocks in the fish pond...

(He likes to look for the "BIG rocks"...)

Watching the "BIG" waterfall on a recent trip to the mountians! He became obsessed with "Big waterfalls" after this!
