Olivia and Gabe go to the Park

Monkey see, Monkey do. What Gabe does, Olivia does. What Olivia gets, Gabe gets. Seriously. I'll be on the phone with Angie (Gabe's Mommy), and she'll say something like, "Oh, Gabe figured out how to open the cupboard, so I had to put the locks up." I'll tell her how Olivia doesn't know how to open the cupboards or drawers. The next thing I know, Olivia is opening the drawers in the kitchen and closing her fingers in them...While I'm still on the phone! I'll tell Angie how Olivia hates getting her diaper changed or getting dressed, and she'll say "Oh, Gabe is fine with that stuff." The next day, she'll call and tell me how all of a sudden Gabe won't sit still during changing time. So, you know how Olivia has been sick off and on? Well, Gabe has been sick too. They even got put on the same stronger antibiotics (at the same time), because they both still got sicker while on the Amox. So a couple weekends ago, when they were both finally feeling better, we decided to head to the park. We went to one of the parks on base. There wasn't much for them to do, but they did swing on the swings, play on the slide and play in the grass too. And they had fun! This was Olivia's first time on the swings...she loved it! See for yourself.

Hey this is pretty fun!


"How high can you go?"


Laughing at Gabe:


Swinging together:


So...this is her new thing. She scrunches her face up when she smiles. I don't know why or where she picked this up. But this is what she does now when she finds something amusing. What a face!


The mommies and babies. It's too bad that Angie and Gabe will be moving in June! We all love playing together.


She likes the swing:


"Push me, Daddy!"


Walking on the grass with Mommy:


Playing on the slide. Gabe climbed all the way up it!

Not sure what this face is. The child has so many faces!

I'm quite sure I've seen that same look (on the last pic) on her mommy's face at some point!!
