We have a tooth!

Yep, yesterday we knew it was coming but today is the first day we can feel it...sniff, sniff...another sign that my baby is getting big! I am really not crying over baby teeth, promise.

6 months old (on March 10)

The "ready" position!

Gabe had his 6 month appointment on the 13th here are his stats:

Ok, well, I will have to post his "stats" later as I shredded the sheet yesterday before I put them in :)...the life of a third child! or the life of a mom with three kids?

What he is doing now:

Finally starting to go to bed with the big kids. He is easy to go to bed just like Jude and Ella were. He likes his paci, a blanket and his sound machine. He can to go to bed anywhere but does prefer to lay in a bed instead of being held to sleep. He loves his family, of course, and lights up when Ella gets in the car from school or when Jude is in the room. He can get in the crawl position but can move forward yet...we are working on that!

Spring Break

















Gabey had his first trip to Gatlinburg and the zoo during Spring Break...you can tell that he had fun!

Happy Half!!

NO, he did not get any! He was pretty happy about the thought of it though!

It is hard to get three kids to look at the camera...especially at 7:00 pm (bedtime)!



Jude is the ULTIMATE baby entertainer. If anyone needs to use him, he is for hire...you will NOT be disappointed!


Not really sure what the fuss is about and not really sure he likes it...until Jude starts his routine.
The big kids enjoyed their cupcakes in the tub, no water...just to keep in contained.

Terrific Threesome!


Gabe is 6 months old today. My how the time has flown!! Having a baby in the world of dentistry is actually pretty funny. It is easy to keep up with how old he is because starting last week patients have been coming in asking about the "new baby". They had come in for their 6 month cleanings a day or so before he was due and now they are coming back 6 months later. The next time they are there he will be A YEAR?!


We had a great dinner with Carmen, Phillip, Landon, Lofton and Dr. Jones. Afterward, we came home and celebrated with some Maggie Moo cupcakes...The Griffin family loves to celebrate! Jonathan broke a candle in "half" for the occasion. Happy Half Birthday Gabe - you have survived your first six months with a big sister AND a big brother (not to mention us as your parents)!
