This is unbelievable to me! How is it possible that my baby is 2 years old already! It would be impossible for me to adequately describe exactly what a joy Gabi is in our home. She has more personality than any one person could imagine. Here are a couple of our favorite things:
1. She is sassy (VERY SASSY)
2. A big talker--saying pretty much anything and everything
3. In love with her daddy
4. Gives the best kisses with the most pouted fish lips ever
5. She will drop on a dime and throw a BIG fit anytime you say the words 'no'
6. She loves her brother so much and they have this amazing brother sister relationship in which they swing from the best of friends to the worst of enimies, but you better not mess with the other because they will defend each other to the end
7. She knows how to work us over
For her birthday my mom was here which was amazing for me especially. We had a butterfly theme sort of and I had lots of fun making and decorating her cake! We had a couple of kids from our ward over to play and so it felt like a big bash! We ate hot dogs and hamburgers and played pop the balloon (bad idea after about 5) and pin the tail on the donkey. Also, the kids dressed up in their halloween costumes...although Gabi backed out at the last minute and did not wear her's. She got a kitchen from us and it has been a BIG hit! Her and Brad love to cook us stuff with all the food, plates, pots and pans that were presents at her party as well. She was one lucky cookie!
Painting pumpkins with Granny....
When Granny was here the kids wanted to paint pumpkins with her! They had a big time painting with Granny and making their beautiful pumpkins! The only problem was I put them outside to dry and it rained that night so the next day we looked out and their newly painted beautiful pumpkins were washed clean! Brad was hilarious...he looked out the window and said, "hey what happened...there's no paint" then immediately saying, "mom--dad told you it was going to rain...why did you leave them outside" Don't feel too bad for them, we turned it into a family activity after Granny went home and even bought another pumpkin so we each had one!
Carving & Painting them later...

It's been too long since we've talked, I need to ring you and catch up. Happy B-day to Gabi!~ I still think she's the cutest thing ever!--which kids from the ward did you have over? just curious.
