Gabriel's Look

I tried to get a picture that would show how curly his hair gets when it's wet. It's crazy cause it's REALLY straight when it's dry.

Here I tried to gel him up a mohawk but it didn't work.
He usually sucks his thumb, sometimes his pinky, and sometimes his middle two fingers. Lately he's been going for his whole fist, it's really funny but I haven't got a picture of that yet.

Here's the peace sign he likes to flash, we got one for the ultrasound too.

So peaceful.

Gabriel's Smiles

Here are some more promised pictures of Gabriel smiling. It is so weird because he looks so tiny in person but most of his pictures he lookes huge. He has a tiny face, occassionally his cheeks look chubby but nothing compared to how he looks in pictures, poor kid. We'll just say that's what happens to me too.

He has such a variety of smiles. Everytime he smiles it's a different look. He's so cute. He laughs all the time now too.

Kind of looks like a sumo baby, but again, he's still just a tiny little guy.

Zeke's cheese

Zeke has learned how to cheese and learned what the camera is. He won't smile on demand unless I have the camera in my hand. But if I do, I tell him to smile and he gives the same smile every time. He's so cute!

This is his new hobby. He loves to play in the blankets. He'll pull them up all around him and just kind of fluff them around. He thinks it's so funny. He's starting to do it with pillows now too.

Lots of Locks

I went with my sister Melody and her two girls to donate our hair to locks of love. This was Paige's first time donating, the rest of us have donated before, just not all together. It's a neat thing to be able to do.

Here is a before picture.

Here is the after.

I donated 12 inches. All the donations were close to a foot!

Gabriel is Two Months

He has been smiling quite a bit the last couple of weeks or so. He even giggles with it sometimes. I love to hear his little coos. More pictures of his smiles to come.

He is getting so big, so fast. In some ways 2 months has gone slow but mostly it has gone fast. I feel like I'm missing some of his new discoveries. He's learning so much already.

Here is a picture of him holding his head up pretty good. (he does better but he and Zeke teamed up and decided never to perform for the camera.) He is a strong little guy.

Blessing Day

Gabriel's blessing was May 3rd. He looks so handsome in his suit.

I didn't realize until almost everyone was gone but almost my whole family was there for it, which I didn't expect. I wish I would have taken pictures, guess they lucked out!

I swear this kid knows I'm taking photos. He strikes a different pose with each shot.

Shh. He's sleeeeping.

And here is a family photo. 20 shots, you'd think one of them would have looked good. Guess we should have changed some of the people in it, ha ha.

Cutie Pies

One of my very favorite pictures! They are so darn cute!

Here they are in their matching outfits after the blessing.
