13 Months and Counting

Not too much is new on this end. Gabriela is progressing nicely. She loves to dance, especially to Thomas the Train. My daughter loves Thomas!!!! She's walking/running and getting banged up with her tumbles, but she's loving life and continues to be the great joy of ours. We had a little excitement this past Saturday ~ it was really windy and Auntie Erin and I went to lunch with G at the Sunset Grill in Lincoln Park. It was sunny and warm and we thought it would be nice to sit outside and watch the airplanes come in. By the way G loved watching them land and take off. Anyway....all of the sudden a massive gust of wind comes (I know I exaggerate, but ask Erin, it was crazy) and blows the highchair, with Gabriela in it, pushes the table toward Gabriela and the Teak umbrella starts snapping towards her. it was crazy!!!! To put it one way, the table behind our had 3 grown men trying not to have their table flip. It was strong, I tried to block the umbrella from the baby and this nice man came running over to help us and I was able to take the baby away. Needless to say the baby wanted no part of the highchair after that chaos. However, we survived unharmed thank goodness!!!! Now we are just fighting colds and preparing for Nana "B" to arrive for a visit tomorrow. We are looking forward to that ~ we miss her very much. Our work schedule is going to be hectic over the next few months which is a good thing, especially since the last few months have been brutal. So G is going to have a busy summer on job sites visiting daddy. We will be working as close as Parsippany and as far as Red Hook (100 miles away). Gotta pay the bills though and work is work! Take care all, I'll be in touch and post some pictures soon!
