Random Stuff

Just wanted to catch ya'll up on some things that we've been doing for the past few weeks.

1. Gabriel's obsession: He has a box of cars that he uses to make parking lots on the carpet (parking lots are just a long line of cars all facing the same direction like a row of cars in a parking lot). This is his newest invention...he calls it a "Gabba Gabba". For all of you familiar with the show "Yo, Gabba Gabba" on Nick Jr., please give me your input on why you think he calls it that...I'm perplexed :P



2. More sweetness.



3. Learning to sit! Michael can now sit up all by himself for a few seconds without falling over. If he is a bit supported he can sit for quite awhile and play with toys.



4. Happy Mommy! Gabriel took this picture of me...not bad for a 3 year old :)




5. Mmmmm....coffee!





6. Our new bathing technique...this seems to work really well right now, at least until Michael can sit up by himself in the bath with Gabriel.









We've been well (all except for Mommy's back going out a few weeks ago...we had a lot of help from Auntie Rondi and Mimi Pelikan to help us around the house and get Mommy to the doctor...I'm all better now...just needed to take it really easy for a few weeks). We are planning our future trip to Nebraska and California for the holidays and are very excited to be with family again. Although, we haven't been too lonely lately as we have spent a lot of time with Uncle John's family over at Mimi and Papa Pelikan's house while Uncle John has been home for his R&R from Afghanistan. I just know Aunt Rondi will post a great blog about their time together...wink, wink ;) We pray that all of our friends and family are happy and well!
