Gabi has received quite a few gifts in the mail and sometimes has more fun with the packaging than the actual present. Thanks to all of you for your kindness and generosity. We cannot say it enough -- we have the most supportive friends and family!
We had a play date with my friend, Teresa, and her kids, Octavia & Peyton. Octavia was also adopted from Guatemala and is almost 3. Peyton is about 15 months old. They had so much fun! When Octavia was asked by her mom where Gabi was from, she said "Guatemala -- like me!" She also told Gabi, "Welcome to the United States!" It was so cute! Teresa is going to watch Gabi a couple of mornings a week in the fall when I go back to work part-time. Octavia (and Peyton too) will be a great role model for her!
Gabi is a good eater -- cereal, all vegies, and fruits, but there is something about cherrios that doesn't appeal to her quite yet. She's fed them to herself a couple of times on her own, but isn't too into them and that's okay. All in due time! Jackson is going to be all over Gabi when she starts feeding herself (and him)!
Such a good dog -- he is so gentle with her.
We're on the countdown to Gabi getting her brace off. Hopefully, by this time next week, she will be brace-free or only have to wear it at night. Cross your fingers -- we go see the doc next Monday afternoon.
