Payton's 2nd Birthday

This last weekend we went to Portland for our friend's Jeff and Lisa's daughter's 2nd birthday. We had a great time and the weather couldn't have been better. The boys spent a few hours on Saturday putting her present together, which was an outdoor play set. The kids had so much fun on it, even Gabby, who now loves the swing!

Toofers!

Last night I saw that Gabby has two teeth coming in on the bottom! That's three months before Will did so I was a bit surprised. Luckily for me she is a good teether like Will was. She doesn't fuss and it doesn't seem to really bother her (knock on wood).

Go Speed Racer!

Go, go Speed Racer!

So Will is now doing chores around the house to earn money. He has to feed Chester, wipe down the table after dinner, and on Friday's he has to dust. If he does all of that he gets $3. $2 is for him to spend however he wants, $.50 goes into offering and $.50 goes into savings.

So what does he want to save for? A Speed Racer toy! It's going to take him awhile, but he's working for it! Yesterday I had some of his money in my pocket and he wanted to ride a toy at a store. I told him I didn't have any quarters but he could use his if he wanted. But if he used his that was less money that he would have for his speed racer toy. He chose not to ride on the toy! By golly, I think he gets it!

Bah, Bah, Bah

That is what Gabby sounds like now. All. The. Time. She is so cute! She does it as if she is talking to you and if you do it to her first she will respond with a "bah, bah, bah". She is also starting to pull herself up a ton and yesterday even attempted to cruise the kitchen a bit. I have a feeling she will be walking before a year!
