Gabe's 4th birthday

Gabe's fourth birthday was a rousing success!  Gabe's grandparents came down from Green Bay  to spend the week with us.  We spent the evening before his birthday with friends at ChuckeCheese for pizza and fun.   Gabe had a great time with his friends Evan and Mitchell.  I would write more (and post more pictures), but my batteries about to die.  I'll catch y'all up more later.  Promise!

October so far


Gabe, Gracie and Hopey coloring at our kitchen table

Gabe and Gracie

I actually took this picture upside down and then turned it.  I probably should have cropped it in, because I really like his face here

Me and Gabe out playing in the rain.  This is the the first time we've had this much rain in at least 6 months.  Gabe had a big time.
No caption needed.

Gabe as we see him about 50% of the time - tumbling on the couch

Can you see why we enrolled him in gymnastics?

Yesterday (Saturday)

 We had a very busy Saturday.  We started off by going to Calloway's nursery for a free kids day that they were having.  Gabe was able to have some popcorn, bounce in a bounce house, decorate a small pumpkin and a small pot with grass in it.  There was also this fun lizard just hanging out.  Gabe didn't want to hold it, but he did pet it.

 The above picture is out of order.  At the end of the day, we went to Target and Gabe used his money to buy a new Chuggington train.  We also went to Best Buy and Nathan and I were able to get a new, much needed camera.  However, all these shots were taken with my camera phone.  I tried to get Gabe to look at the camera and smile all day, and he refused.  But when we left target, he insisted I take his picture with his new train. 
 After we went to Calloways, we went north to a mall parking lot, where a non profit was putting on a fundraiser.  It was called Touch a Truck and they had all sorts of cars and trucks that the kids could get in and see and find out about. 
 They had 4 firetrucks old and new.  The firemen and women were very nice and helpful.

 Daddy's favorite vehicle of the day. 
 One of Gabe's favorite's (dump truck).  One of the volunteers asked him what his favorite was, and he said "all the red ones".  (Red is his favorite color)

Playing with his trucks on the way home.  =)  (and making a silly face on purpose)
