How Gabriel Grows

|
I think we figured out when Gabriel is growing! Here, he is laying down, and then, suddenly, he as if gets a chill. Then, he slowly stretches and I think he becomes just a little big bigger!

He pretty much can hold his head since birth. This is so strange: He is such a tiny little dude, but he already is so strong. His head is so heavy, leaning left and right... but he lifts it over his head, or my knees, and trying really hard to hold it up. Surely, he is not very good at it yet, and, surely, he is irritated by it. So funny!

Today, he was all of a sudden licked by Ralph. Gabi was sleeping in his car seat after the walk. Ralph came to him, sniffed him for a long time and then licked him with his worm wet tongue. He either decided Gabi needed a bath, or he just felt THAT many feelings, haha.

It seems like Ralphie does not associate himself with a dog, but more with a human being. He, for instance, grabs a pillow from a couch, places it under his head, and lays down in the most inconvenient spot, in front of the staircase. That way, nobody can pass unnoticed. And nobody does! We all trip on Ralphie and his giant fluffy paws, which he doesn't bother to move.

Fun morning memory: Zachary is trying to fit a plastic block into a slot in a wooden box. The plastick block have no relation to the wooden box. These are different toy sets. But Zac tried really hard to fit a random block into a random slot. One time, he managed to push the block through the slot, but another time he didn't. In the process of the game, I can clearly see Zachary's mood: If he patiently "fighting" with the block trying to squeeze it into the box, he is in a good mood. if he throws blocks into the box, the mood is not that great.

He also likes to squeeze his breakfast puffs into his soska. First, he takes his time to push a puff or two with his little finger inside his soska, and then, he takes his time to take these puffs out of it. He looks very busy and concentrated, while he is at it.

... In the evening, when Gabi started to fuss in his bassinet, Mike took him in his arms. The little guy got lost on Mike's wide chest, but I could see that both boys were happy and content. Mike was happy because Gabi is such a cute little kid. And Gabi was happy because there is nothing warmer and stable than papa's arms.
