It seems like it has been a never ending one thing after another and I have a feeling that this is the way things are when you have kids. But then again, we get to have them. That makes it all worth it. Sleep would help also...
So, we all have made it seven months with bebe #2. He has been great-easiest bebe in the world (mostly if that is possible). Gabe has taught me so much about patience. He, like my great black dog, is really here to be with us and doesnt worry about anything else. He sure lights up when he is with us and his caretakers and enjoys doing whatever we do. no, he doesn't need much fussing about or devotion. He is just happy. Happy at 7 months I'll take. That means we are making it.
Gabe to date does not have any teeth. I am hoping they'll show up this month or next and that he wont be crawling,ever. (yes, ever). I am terrified about the thought of him being mobile or bipedal. He will be a monster! He is already getting into everything and not aware of how strong he is. Before he was born we called him Hercules b/c of his size. Now I am seeing a comeback of the name due to his strength. He has a checkup on his ears today so we'll see if he is finally over his ear infection(s).(since I wrote this he has another ear infection -2 days after his appointment he got another one. This is #4 in two months. Not sure what we are doing next)
Frannie is still in love with her baby brother after 7 months and that also tells me that we are making it. I see her still need my attention and still need to be 3 but also still need to be the big sis. She had a great weekend with her friend Freya and skiing. She is working on numbers and counting and still loves her animals and horses.
I got in this weekend (somehow) making some bbq sauce, valentines chocolates, cheddar crackers, doing laundry and sheets, cleaning house, exercise (on friday), and errands this weekend on top of the family plans. Still working on sleep but that isnt my fault...even the dog strives to keep me awake. Will I make it to 12 months?? I'll keep you posted

| 7 months and were still smiling |
 |
| Little Centerfold- he looks older than he is since he is so skinny |
 |
| Toes are fun |
 |
| Why not roll over? Gabe would rather be this way |
 |
| Growing up and exploring eating. Gabe is really changing fast these days |
 |
| First mohawk-why not, he has enough hair to do it? (it only stays like this after his bath) |
 |
| Yes, it is time for the baby cage. Sorry Gabe, but this is part of growing up. He seems to like his new place! |
