Christmas Lights





Here are some pictures of our outside Christmas lights. Gabe would have climbed all over the entire roof if Michael would have let him.

Day After Thanksgiving


Gabe had his first experience with black Friday shopping! He was so great! I am sure with years to come he will get as excited as Michael and I do!

Gabriel Telling A Story =)

I was glad to be able to catch this story on video. He has some rough spots, but for the most part he tells the story of "The Three Little Bears" quite well for a three year old.

Seven Random Things About Myself

1) My favorite color is purple.
2) When I was in High School I never thought the health field would interest me. Now I love to read about different diseases, whats new in vaccines, how to help people that are sick.
3) All while growing up I used to sling my dirty clothes every where. Now I can't stand clothes lying around, not even if they are folded up on the dresser. I love order!
4) I love it when Gabe tells me that I am his best friend.
5) My favorite past time is watching movies with Michael and Gabriel as a family.
6) I felt as though I should have a party when Gabe finally started using the potty! It felt more rewarding than anything I had ever accomplished for myself.
7) I am thankful for all God has brought me through.

Gabriel Working On His Gator




Gabe saw Michael rotating the tires on his truck, so Gabe decided he needed to work on his gator also.

Gabe's Table (created by mom and dad)



This has been our next wood work creation. We decided to make Gabe a table that would fit up close to his recliner. Michael cut the wood and I sanded and painted it. We are in the process of putting polycrylic on it now. This wood working thing is actually very fun! I know we are only amateur's, but we are learning a lot.

This post was an idea given to me by my friend Stephanie. The recipe was given to me by a lady I used to work with at Reproductive Medicine. It was delicious!
