We're happy to announce that Gabby has hit yet another milestone! As you can see she's sitting up like a pro! (And even has the coordination to stick her tongue out at mom!)
She sat up by herself for the first time about a week ago and we're all loving it! Gabby will actually play on her own for a while before demanding someone's attention.
Isn't she just the cutest little toe-head? 
Whew! Sorry, it's taken so long for me to update what's going on! We had such a great Christmas! Will is finally at the age where he understands, somewhat, Santa and that he brings him presents. He LOVED the Cars guitar he got and Gabby is just eating up all the time we spend with her reading from the Fairy Tales Collection book she received. Benj and I enjoyed the presents we received as well.
A couple of days after Christmas, Gabby officially started on solids. I know, I'm a slacker in just trying these out with her, but what can ya do? She's doing a lot better than the beginning. She wasn't all that interested at first but I think she's getting the hang of it!
Out sweet neighbor had some stuff she needed to clean out, including this bumbo chair. I don't know how I got along without it. Gabby loves feeling like she's a part of things. She can't sit up yet so I think she enjoys the different perspective. This chair is awesome and I take it almost everywhere we go!
Will really enjoys jamming on his new guitar with dad. His favorite song to sing is Jingle Bells. As you can imagine, Benj has those chords down so well now!
Gabby's cousin, Kayla was born at the end of last month. Grandma gave both of these adorable girls this outfit so we had to get a picture before Gabby busts out of it! As you can see Gabby and Kayla are such opposites in appearance. Kayla has TONZ of beautiful dark, long hair with a dark complexion and is such a little thing. (Not to mention, she's sleeping!) Gabby is...Gabby, still so adorable with blond (pretty much white) hair, fair complexion and sooooo chunky! Gotta love 'em both right?
A couple of weeks ago we went to Temple Square. It was so nice! We showed up right when they turned the lights on and it was one of the coldest days so it seemed almost deserted. 
The kids looked so cute all bundled up!
On his actual birthday, we went swimming and made mickey mouse pancakes for dinner (what else?). We love our little 2 year old and are knocking on wood because it doesn't feel like he's hit his "terrible two" stage yet!
I thought I would do a post on the good pals Will and Gabby are! We couldn't ask for a better big brother to Gabby than Will is! He'll lay down beside her and show her something or just talk gibberish. You gotta love the bathtime together too!
Halloween was a blast! We visited both of the kids' grandparents and ate way to much sugar but that's what Halloween is all about right? Here's Will with his pal Tyler and then Gabby with her gal, Kacie!
