Friends







Well Gabe had his second birthday party to go to and absolutely loved it. They had it at the First Baptist Church where he attends day-care and it was one of his classmates - SaraLynn's birthday. Several of his classmates were there. Although we had such fun for those 2 hours it was quite sad because all of Gabe's "Toddler" class but his friend Cadence are moving up to the "Twos" this week. He's been with this group for several months as he was with this group for several months in the "Creeper" room before. There's a break between Gabe and the next older boy - Carson, by 3 months so I guessed they figured it was a good place to split. So this party was kind of like a last hola for Gabe until of course he moves up to the "Twos" in a couple of months - potty-training! With all this said we're excited to have a great group of kids moving up and he already has several friends within them. And Gabe will be the "oldest" - kind of scary!! This is quite an important class since they learn to sleep on a cot instead of a crib (strangely I find out last week that Gabe has a cot away from everyone else on the other side of the room on the other side of a table since he enjoys talking with everyone over sleeping but this way they say he's the first one asleep every day - minus one day last week when I guess he had too much sleep the night before and decided to sing to everyone the entire nap-time - whose kid is this?!?!), they drink out of a big people cups (Gabe still enjoys pouring all over him instead of drinking it however - he comes home in different clothes quite often b/c of this), they eat at a table in a chair rather than a highchair and eat on their own (minus the mashed potatoes I hear - they still need assistance with that to avoid a mashed potato war) and they are learning colors, animals and all sorts of new things. This is quite an entertaining class. So with all this said Good-bye to the old friends for now and Welcome to the younger group - BEWARE!
