Gabriel continues to enjoy playing outside whenever he can. He loves to kick balls, play with balls, swing, slide, and ride his bicycle.

His language development and personality continue to explode. At church on Saturday night pastor asked the congregation, "Who loves God?" Gabe shouted back, "ME!" Too cute. Made us proud that he is strong enough to answer that question and shows that he was listening.

Just 3 weeks from today Baby Brother will be here already! Yikes, we have a few more things to get.

Garden and Playhouse

We have had a productive Sunday in Van Meter. I was able to find a good deal on a second-hand playhouse for Gabriel that he enjoys outside. Daddy was able to get a great start on our vegetable garden for this summer. Thanks to my grandpa we were able to inherit a gas-powered garden tiller that really helped the process once all the sod was out. Now Bart is going to get some good Iowa soil from a farmer friend in the area to fill it in more and it is planting time. Can't wait to see the fruits of our labor later this summer. Enjoy a few pictures of the day.
