Crazy kid

We had to out the bumper back in Gabriel's crib. We would hear him crying and Manuel found him poking his foot in and out of the slats on his bed. We decided to put the bumper back in when managed to get stuck, and being the mommy I had to capture the moment.

Manuel went out of town for a week, for work, and Gabriel did better than Manuel did. My mom came to stay with us for three days. After she left Manuel was playing the messages and when Gabriel heard her voice he stuck out his hands and made a whimper. I love that he loves his Buela. Although since he has gotten back, he has gotten very clingy. He loves having his feet in his face or in his mouth, he hasn't quite developed the muscles to do it himself. He look like he is doing baby crunches when he tries to do it himself. He is a handful, but so much fun. We have started skyping with Sarah and the kids. It is so great to see the kids interacting with Gabriel. I really want the cousins to be close like we were growing up. 

Buela was showing Gabriel a picture of his cousin Gabriel when he grabbed it, tried to kiss him, and then would not let it go. It was so cute.

This is his new thing, he likes to rub his head. I am not sure if it a comforting thing because we do it, or it is something new to him. He sometimes rubs the other side, but he has very little hair and he might rub off what he has.

He has a mortal enemy in Cookie Monster and fights with him all the time. He is starting to eye the bunny next to Cookie, so soon he will be a victim to Gabriel's wrath.

Look at those sausages, he has for fingers. I thought I would never see chubby hands, since it has taken him so long to gain weight.
