10 things about Gabe
1. Gabe would rather lick a lava rock than eat table food.
2. His real name is Gabriel, after the angel Gabriel. (AKA "Chubbers")
3. He loves to stick his blankie in his shirt and say "Tica Tica" (Tickle , Tickle- for us to tickle him where his blanket is)
4. I was very nauseated with Gabe the first few months of my pregnancy. I would lay on the cold ceramic kitchen floor and eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Little did I know, that both my children have severe peanut allergies.
5.Gabe loves to sleep in 3 places, on a heating vent, right next to his bedroom door and upside down in his bed.
6. At the same place, on the same road, Gabe looks out the window and says "Tee!" every time. It took 3 months to figure out that someone had a big letter "G" on there house. All of Gabe's letters then were "Tee". Now he says "Da, da, da, da" about the same place and we have no idea why.
7. He loves to script the part in Nemo when they are initiating Nemo at the volcano and they are all chanting "Whohaha, Whohaha, Whohaha".
8. Gabe was born 7 weeks early and was taken before I could hold him to the NICU for breathing. Then they put me on bed rest due to something about my heart and I wasn't supposed to see my son for 3 days. I couldn't stop crying and some social worker put in my file that I was unstable without proper support from home.
9.Gabe has been in size 6 diapers since I can remember. He went from premie diapers to Toddler size 6 in 10 months. I swear!
10. He picked out his first dress to wear today. Sister's have the most amazing influence to my husband's chagrin.
