DaDdy & GaBrIeL

I'm afaid Gabriel is going to think I was never around because i'm never in the pictures...ha ha!! It's just so difficult for me to pass up any opportunity to take pics of Gabriel and Chet together because they are so adorable. I think they have a special bond.

This is the reason we still co-sleep. Generally it's mommy and Gabriel snoozing in the bed while Daddy studies/reads on his laptop in the other rooom but on weekends Daddy gets a turn to take a cuddle nap. Our son is so cuddly. He always wants to be held against our chest and nuzzle up to our neck. Sometimes it's like he's a newborn all over again. It can be tough at times when we are exhausted and he wants to sleep right on top of us or in our face BUT we know this phase will not last forever so we try to remember how lucky we are to have a little luv bug.

A glimpse into the future-Gabriel and his Daddy putting furniture together. Chester is so patient. Gabriel crawled all over the pieces and ate power cords and basically was into everything but Chet was so easy about it. I hope that Gabriel learns patience from him because he sure will not get it from his mommy...ha ha!!

I took a nap (on my own) and when I emerged from the room Chet informed me that Gabriel fell asleep in his tent and took a nap in there. Here's the pics to prove it. Chet is determined to make Gabriel LOVE sleeping in a tent!

Gabriel's new fleece from Grama. We are off to Gabriel's FIRST Tarheels Basketball game thanks to Dr. Thakker for giving us his tickets. We had a great time! More pics to follow.
