He has developed such a personality over the last few months... I LOVE IT! I also love how much he can communicate with us now days! His newest is "sorby"... "sorry". So sweet! The amazing thing is not only did he learn the word but he uses it in the right context. Kids are amazing! They soak things up like little sponges. Speaking of sponges... the day has come where we also have to be careful of what we say... yes, he is now repeating us! The other night at the dinner table my dad jokingly said "dang you" and what do you know our little man said "dang you" before we knew it! YIKES.... It has made me rethink my choice of words more then once! he he
So Gabe had a wonderful birthday yesterday. We tried to make the day extra special... his party is going to be next weekend, so those pictures are to come! Here is his day... I tried to document everything we did!
He woke up to a present and balloons in the living room. He was so excited when he saw it that he started running laps around it!

This is him running laps around the present and kicking the balloons "real high"!
More celebrating......

NEW SAND TOYS!!!! he was saying "mom op"="mom open"

Examining the toys inside....

A "tar mom"= "car mom"! He was thrilled!
checking out the shovels!
Just as we were ready to go out the door to see daddy... the ups man came with a special delivery for GABE! One of my best friends, ariel, who lives in Colorado sent gabe some presents! He was SO excited to open the box.
She sent bath toys.....love the look on his face!
And his all time favorite.... a BALL! Thanks SO much ariel. You helped make his day so special!

Moving on to see daddy at school...
When we arrived daddy had presents and a balloon! As you can guess the balloon has been his gift of choice! Silly boy... In the first sack he found another sand toy... a dump truck. In the other was some yummy fruit snacks. Easy to please...huh!
He loves watching bits and pieces of Finding Nemo now... so he was excited to see Nemo on the box.
His lunch consisted of two different stops in town. McDonalds for the cheeseburger and KFC for some corn and mac and cheese!
Gabe and daddy being silly!
Cupcake time! He was so intrigued by the candles.
sweet boy
yummy
Licking off those fingers...
Our family...
Getting daddy....

After lunch with daddy we stopped by the Power House to say hi to Nanno (my dad). When he woke up yesterday morning the first thing he said to me was "mom, go bye, Nanno". Nanno had told him he could come to his house to play outside and blow bubbles..... he had remembered!
When we got home we played outside a little while before nap time!


Sissy wanted in a picture....
My big boy... I can't believe hes two...

After nap we headed to Nannos for some time outside and then off to Gabes favorite....Mi Pueblo. His favorite dish is rice and beans and has been since he could eat them.

I asked Jerry to play the birthday song for him and then told him I don't know if he will like the hat.... well as you can see he loved the hat, song, clapping, and attention. He wasn't sure what to do at first but then came the icecream... he knew exactly what to do with it!
