All in a day

Morning started out with monkey being awake but not really sure he wanted to be awake. He brought a blanket to me so that he could be wrapped up in it for a little while.

Oh yes, he wrapped himself up in a blanket with a picture of himself on it. He is in love with the blanket!

Once awake Gabriel got his education on with his laptop. He may not completely understand how to use it but it is one of his favorite toys.


Gabriel tripped over his own feet and fell today. I was looking for broken bones because he did a cry I have never heard come from him. While I was checking out his legs Gabe turned around in his chair and yelled "OH MY GOD". Come to find out Gabriel took a face plant, gave himself a fat lip and was bleeding all over. Here are some pictures after cleaning his face up. He will be just fine.



Isabella and Gabriel had a dance party this afternoon. I wish I had half their energy! These two are crazy. They get closer and closer every day. Gabriel is picking on Isabella less and less.


Isabella loves her big brother!

Gabriel loves him too :)

Party like a rock star!

From the look of it someone had too much to drink last night and lost some of his clothing by morning...

At least he is making the most of his naked state...

Due to his clothing malfunction (we are hoping he is not fined) and his excess of milk last night, Gabriel was not of the mind to get dressed correctly.  This is what our little rock star decided to wear today...


Oh yes, you see that correctly.  He put on his Harley jacket and Cowboy boots... Angie brought a bag of hand me downs yesterday when she visited.  Can you guess what Gabriel liked best?


Isabella liked her outfit so much she wanted it on again today.  She had a rock star party of her own.




We never have a dull moment here at the Purdy house!! (Thank you Angie!)

PARTY!!!

Today was The (hopefully) annual Winter Celebration a the Purdy House!
I am going to try to cut the amazing photo's down to a manageable amount for the post tonight.
We had many friends over to visit and were able to get a great photo of our West Michigan Mom group!  I love these women!
Dina and Tyce, Me and Gabriel, Angie and Lily, Jenee and Kaitlyn, Cathie and Ian, Jen and Abby
Jenee made a cake in celebration of Isabella's birthday and cupcakes in celebration of Gabriel's heartday.  She did an AMAZING job!!!!



The kids all had a blast!
Our little non-walkers racing across the floor all worm style! (Tyce and Abby are so stinking cute!)
