Totally Fun Tuesday

Bowling all by herself
   

Lifting 20% of her body weight, no sweat

The alligator helped her roll the ball down the ally
We had a ton of fun

Gabby knocked down all but one pin!!

She decided it was also a slide

Can you tell she loves him?

The furthest she skated independently

Look at her go

Approximately one second after I shot this picture she fell forward, busted her nose and lip, and we got of the rink to clean up the blood.  She was a trooper.

The finale of the day: Her Tangled comforter came in

So today, as most days in the McIlroy home was a Gabby day.  We filled the day full of fun.  We started at the habachi grill (more for Mommy and Daddy) and Gabby ate more of my steak and noodle than I did.  Then we tried to go skating which Gabby has been dying to try out but they weren't open yet so we took a detour to bowling since it was $2 Tuesday.  Boy did we luck out on a cheap and very fun day of activities. 

Since I am on vacation I will not be verbose, but rather allow the old adage a picture is worth a thousand words do the work for me instead.

Interesting Fact

Today I went to the doctor for my now bi-weekly appointment. This is only the second time he has gotten out a measuring tape and measured my engorged stomach. My boss was talking about how interesting it is when they measure you...so I asked my doctor about it today and it's true! Whenever you are in your 20 something week and further along until very close to the end of pregnancy the number of centimeters from your pelvic bone to the top of your uterus should approximately be the same as the number of weeks pregnant you are. This week I was 28 centimeters and I am 28 weeks! So Gabrielle is right on schedule.

A Fun Filled Christmas Season

This Christmas season has been a very busy one for our family.  I have hosted a party and been to a numerous parties.  Gabby saw Santa Claus twice, made gingerbread houses, saw a performance of the “Gingerbread Man” with puppets, made a gingerbread man and ate it, counted down the days until Christmas with an Advent Calendar, made Mary, Joseph, and Jesus figurines, and went to look at Christmas lights a few times while belting out Christmas songs.  We did not forget the reason for this season.  No matter what we were doing, I tried to incorporate and tie it back into Jesus’ birth and the true meaning of Christmas.  Even Mr. Elfis tried to show Gabby that this season is about Jesus.  He read a Christmas Story one day and prayed over a nativity scene one day.
