A DAY IN THE LIFE OF GABRIELLE ELISABETH

What can I say, Gabby, 9 months,  is one busy little girl.  She had just learned to crawl when I arrived and at the end of the month she crawled at lightening speed and was pulling up on whatever stood still.  She, on the other hand, was never still, some part of her body always in motion.  She could make some of the funniest faces, was loud when she "talked", gentle was not in her vocabulary, learned to give kisses and bite, you never knew which she might do; had an adorable giggle, did not like her Daddy to wrestle with Natty, loved to feed herself, did not like to nap,  and you always knew when she was not a happy camper.  She is a petite, muscular, blue eyed beauty that will be keeping her parents on their toes for quite a while I imagine. 

 Just beginning to pull up; lucky that was against the wall.

 That's Gabby, always crawling under things.

 I want that toy and it doesn't matter what is in the way, I will get it.

 Amazing how long she could play with one simple toy.

 And she finally mastered the art of pulling up and she is ALWAYS on her toes.

 She loves outside, and the playground right by their house.  Giddy up horsey.

 Crawling in the tunnel was scary at first, but then, it was a game.

 Swinging always makes her happy.

 See ya, I am going to have a snack.

 Yummmm, this strawberry newton hit the spot.  Her first experience with one.  Think she enjoyed it just a little.
