A holly jolly Christmas








We had a wonderful Christmas celebration. Seeing the excitement (family, presents, food, etc.) through Gabi's eyes made this Christmas so special for me. She a blast all day long! We started the day with Santa arriving for breakfast! We all loved the outfit but Gabi was terrified of Tom while he was in it :)
Here are a few pictures of the day.

Molars

All 4 molars have finally made an appearance! Phew...they've been bugging Gabi for over a month now. I think we'll all enjoy a good night sleep!

Parke family Christmas



We had a wonderful Christmas celebration with the Parke's. Gabi really enjoyed unwrapping everyone's gifts!
Gabi's grandma and great grandma lured her with cookies...she certainly enjoyed all of the attention.
I had to include the picture of David in his new weed wacking goggles...too cute!

Running already

The pediatrician warned me that it was bound to happen very soon but I have to admit I still wasn't ready. Gabi has been a speedy walker but today I witnessed her running down the hall! I mean really running!!! What can I say, there's no stopping her :)

15 month appointment

Gabi was a trooper at her appointment today. She didn't even cry for her shots! Woot! Well, here are her stats...20 pounds (10th percentile) 31.5 inches tall (76th percentile) and her head is finally growing...17 3/4 inches (27th percentile) :) She's happy and healthy. And I guess she's also an advanced talker...our little chatty Kathy.

Ladies lunch out


We had a fun visit with my sisters before the holidays. We finished up Christmas shopping and enjoyed some time together. Gabi thoroughly enjoyed her entourage :)

Happy St. Nicholas Day

We woke up to fresh snow on the ground and stockings full of fun little presents. I think everyone enjoyed their gifts from St. Nick! Tucker even let Gabi take a picture with him :)

Christmas present


The Parkes are here visiting this weekend. They brought Gabi her Christmas present early so they could watch her play with it. I think it was a hit!
