Gabriela's Birthday Party!

Turning One!

Gabriela's birthday party is coming up, then her real birthday! I cannot believe this year has flown by so fast! The first 2 months felt like a blur due to exhaustion. Then our little girl started growing up. She loves to play and giggle. When asked, she will bring us a book, her duck, the ball, her purse, or drink her water. She says, "Mama" (meaning mommy) and "DaDa" (meaning daddy and/or dog-sorry daddy!). She loves Pancho with a passion. He can turn her frown around quite quickly! Book reading is always an enjoyment. Gabriela likes speed-reading. Sometimes she turns the page before mommy is done reading! She is an amazing helper when Mommy is doing laundry! She is still learning the different textures of table food...she is quite picky. She has no problem letting you know she doesn't like something...she will gag & puke. We are looking forward to the upcoming year when she will hopefully begin communicating more. We are working on the signs for hungry, more, and milk. She is transitioning to the next room at daycare.
