This Week in the life of Gabriel

It was a semi busy week this week at our house. We took two trips to Pearland...one to pick out pictures from Gabriel's 3 month photo shoot and another one to Jeremy & Kari's house for Steve's birthday. In between all of that I made homemade (from scratch) cupcakes and icing. Yummm!!!

This weekend we have kept things quiet. Mostly hanging around the living room and dancing to Michael Jackson music. Gabriel is especially fond of his daddy time on the weekends.

We also started trying to teach him how to sleep in a sleep sack instead of his swaddle me's. We're doing it during nap times currently. So far he is making it up to 1 1/2 hours. (About a normal nap time.) At the beginning of the week he could only make it 30 min.

We've also been working on how to eat rice cereal. It's been slow going and we don't try every day. You have to catch him in a good mood. He liked it yesterday when we made it with formula per Marissa's suggestion! Thanks, Marissa!!! We will start doing it every day when he reaches four months.

We are also in major teething mode! He is fussier, drools like a faucet, chews on his hands, and likes having his gums rubbed with my knuckle. We've been using teething tabs since most teething toys are too big for his little 3 month old mouth. I can see the little white lines of teeth on his lower gums but who knows how long it will be before they pop through. I hope not too long.

Coming up next week in the life of Gabriel: Hanging out with Tara and Kennedy, hopefully a visit to the rec center pool, and visiting Uncle Matt and family in Dallas. We can't wait Wood family!!! See you soon! In the mean time...in case I don't post before then...HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!
