Well we have been very busy since Christmas, thankfully, with the normal everyday life and it has been amazing! Gabrielle started daycare back in December and after shuffling around between classrooms and teachers she is starting to settle in nicely. We are at that point where she is excited to go each day and see her friends and when I pick her up she is so excited to tell Bart and myself all about her day. This age is so fun! She is learning all kinds of new things like how to write her name, cut with scissors and to color in the lines. Her teacher sends sweet notes of encouragement home to her each day, telling her what a good job she is doing. Her confidence in herself and with others have grown leaps and bounds.
From a medical standpoint things have been very laid back. She has had a few ultrasounds just to make sure that the bladder and her kidneys are functioning as normal and everything seems just fine. She will go this Thursday for her 4 year old shots... OUCH! Her physical therapy is going wonders! Her legs are so much more flexible and each day she stands a little taller.
This past weekend we celebrated her 4 year birthday and Avery's 1 year birthday. We had a wonderful party with lots of family and friends and Gabrielle couldn't have enjoyed it anymore. I can't believe that they are 1 and 4, where has time gone?! We have so enjoyed these last 4 years with Gabrielle and adding Avery to the mix has made things doubly interesting, lol. I can't wait to see what their little personalities develop into.
