She enjoyed the presents - and even stopped to take some time to rip some wrapping paper and play with some ribbon! She was spoiled by all and everyone and we are so greatful for all of the wonderful gifts she received.
We were lucky enough to be able to see all our families over the Holiday Season - including Christmas with The Mueller Family (my mom's side) and Brandon's Grandparents. Josh and Molly even came back to Iowa so Gabby was able to spend time with them as well. Both Jeff and Darcy were here for Christmas, so that was very special!
This past month has been CRAZY! Gabby has learned to crawl, pull herself up and cruise all in about 5 weeks. She loves to stand up in her crib and SCREAM!! Oh, so much fun for Mom and Dad at 3:00 a.m.! She is starting the teething "routine" again (massive drooling, self applying pressure to her gums) so we're thinking her top 2 teeth will be making an appearance in the next couple of months.
Brandon and I had time to run a few errands yesterday and even grab an "adult" dinner (Thank You Grandma Dawn!) and we found ourselves reflecting back on the past 8 months. It is truely amazing how much Gabby has changed and we feel so lucky to have a healthy and happy baby. We only pray that we are so fortunate here again in 14 short weeks!
We hope all of you had a joyous Holiday Season!
