This is What 4 Looks Like



So this is what 4 looks like.  At 4 Gabby has the following skills:
  • Writing and identifying some letters
  • Telling jokes
  • Understanding when others are joking with her
  • Using her imagination
  • Memorizing entire movies and quoting them
  • Having a huge vocabulary including the words: hilarious, ridiculous, and compensate
  • Ride her bicycle with training wheels
  • Play hopscotch
  • Balance on one foot
  • Hop on one foot
  • Knows some letters
  • Draw monsters, people, sun, sky, grass, circles, squares, a cat, and a lot more
  • Play with her older friends
  • She can hop, run, jump, and hold herself up on monkey bars for a few seconds
  • She can jump from the monkey bars
  • She can swing independently
  • Identify her numbers 1-9 (when interested)
These are only a few of her immense number of skills. Now for the fun part:
Gabby found this "4" all by herself and insisted we take photos near it since she just turned 4.


This is her genuine happiness playing in nature.  She was picking flowers and putting them in her Hello Kitty bag.

Miss sassy pants.


I always wonder if she will keep these bouncing curls forever. I hope so.

Thanksgiving 2013

Thanksgiving Day we all with to Grandma and Papa’s house to enjoy a traditional Cajun dinner and it was delicious.  Gigi, Blakeleigh, Brandy, Nanny, Uncle Patrick, Grandma, Papa, Aunt Lisa, Aunt Christine, and Keith were all there to celebrate with us.  Gabby enjoyed the day immensely playing with Blakeleigh the entire day and even trying to snuggle with her during her nap time.  Gabby made everyone sing "Happy Birthday" to Mommy and she blew out the candles Then Brandy and Blakeleigh spent two nights with us.  We had lots of fun going to Mud Pie to make handprint Christmas cookie plates and hanging out at Grandma’s house.  Gabby enjoyed very much singing Happy Birthday to Mommy with the family and blowing out my candle.  The night of my birthday Gabby spend the night with Grandma and Papa and Nanny, Uncle Patrick, Mommy and Daddy went to the movies together for the first time ever.  It was a very fun weekend.   T...

Sacrafices for My Angel

Everyone knows that being a parent is full of sacrifices and some are more difficult than others. So far being a Mom I have "sacrificed" my skin thanks to stretch marks, my youthfulness, thanks to the worries that cause the new wrinkles I notice weekly, my pretty legs thanks to the varicose veins I received during pregnancy that never went away, the comfort of sitting thanks to the back pain I have had ever since pregnancy, a good night’s sleep, and the list goes on... However, none of these things truly feel like a sacrifice (although I do miss sleep and my non-damaged body) they are just part of being a mommy and I wouldn't trade parenthood for anything! Today, however, a very difficult sacrifice was made, although I know it was the only choice. Ranger, the dog Michael and I had for 7 ½ years, was given to a new home today. He bit Gabby on her head when she was about 9 months old and then about a week ago he nipped at her and unfortunately that was the last straw. M...

Pink or Blue Skittle

Okay so as requested by many, I am posting a picture of my belly. A few people told me that they needed to see my belly before guessing the sex of the baby. When Michael took this picture last night we were both convinced my belly grew from the time I woke up. Please comment whether you think it's a boy or a girl or email me and let me know what you think because I would love to make a little scrapbook page of who guessed what. We will let you know October 30th, whether or not you are correct.
