Look at me grow!





This month had good and sad.  We started out with a visit to Indiana.  It went so smooth.  I was afraid that Gabriel was going to have a hard time on the plane but he was fantastic!  Many people came up to me and commented about how good he was during our trip.  We stayed for a little over a week, it was so great to see everyone.  Jon's family had been so looking forward to meeting our baby boy.

On Mother's Day we parted ways with Jon, he was headed down to Florida and Gabe and I were headed to Kansas City to meet up with Jessica.  Shelly, who lives just outside of KC, just had her second child and we were able to stop and and see him.  Little Carter looked so small compared to Gabe!  Jessica and I drove from Missouri to Utah.  I was a little worried how Gabe would do on the 18 hour journey.  Once again, he was fantastic.  Jessica, Gabriel, and I had a nice week long visit before she headed to her final destination ...Las Vegas.  We are so glad she lives close because there are many visits in our future :)

Gabe had his 6 month visit this month.  The doctor joked that we don't need to worry about him falling into the "failure to thrive" category.  Shots went much better than his 4 month visit.  He cried but he was fine after.
Gabriel is such a fantastic baby.  He still falls asleep everywhere...the store, church, the car, you name it.

I am constantly sending Jon pictures and filling him in on the latest, he misses Gabriel so much.  I look forward to seeing how our sweet boy will change next month.
