Gabriel has figured out how to climb and he is using that skill ALL the time. If you turn your back on him for one minute he is up on the kitchen table. He likes to line his animals up on the chairs and then try to see if he can climb up BEHIND them without knocking them over. He is really starting to enjoy his brothers and sister. But he cries if they play to rough and he thinks someone is getting hurt. (see last pic) Abby is his other favorite playmate. All has been forgiven with her nip and he lays on her like she is an oversized pillow. She is the most gentle dog and often lets him stand on her like a step stool. She does not like when the other dogs get too close to him though.
Kian is going through a very sensitive phase right now and it bothers him that "it is all about Gabey" He makes me laugh though with the things he comes up with. He reminds me of Jake at 6 but he is a bit less devious.
Speaking of Jake, he is doing his usual. He fails all his classess and then at the end, somehow, he pulls it all together and gets good grades. it is very annoying and he has been doing it his whole illustrious school career. He drives his teachers crazy. He has also recently become a coffee fiend and now Dad has to make THREE cups of coffee in the morning. We are still waiting for the Dentist to put his bottom braces on. They are working on his top bite.
Sophie is all teeth and limbs right now. She is at that weird gangley age. And yet she is still beautiful. Seriously, I worry about Juan's sanity as she gets older.
We love you all so much and miss each and everyone of our family members. I do not think we will be able to come home any time soon with the economy the way it is now. But, I definitely plan on being there for round two with Katie. I wouldn't miss it for anything. I love you guys!
