A boy who can stand on his own two feet

 

Day 1 of standing, it was hard to get a picture of him actually standing all by himself.

He got so excited that he was clapping for himself.

 

After two whole days of trying to get a picture of Gabriel standing BY HIMSELF, here it is.  He stood a ton today and even took a small step or two....  We are days away!

What are you having for dinner?

Because last night at this house we had "Key Soup."  Apparently, mama must do too much cooking.  Gabriel's picked up a few tricks.  Number one rule to a fabulous meal--only the best ingredients. 

Pirates don't wear bibs

They wear capes.  And rescue monkeys from polar bears.  Then push them around in their Tonka Trucks.  Only babies wear bibs.
