"Ootball!! Ootball!!"

I think that Gabe uttering the word "Ootball" has been one of David's proudest moments as a father.  :)  With the new NFL season starting recently, football has been quite the topic of conversation for David.  He is a huge Colts fan and has always told me that his son WILL be into football too.  The fact that Gabe can identify the game even without seeing the ball is a testament to this.  And every other ball is just "ball."  He will plop down on the floor or cuddle with David to watch the games for a few minutes.  Very cute!!

He continues to talk a lot, pointing out trucks & bug & many other things.  He then likes to ask "See em?"  But he says it like one word, so I'm constantly telling him "Yes, Gabe I see it."  Or if he can't find something...."see em?"  He is very curious....& is always scanning the immediate area for anything he has missed so far.  (He is terrible at a restaurant...too busy watching waiters & eyeing other people to eat food.)

This past weekend we got a visit from Grandma Dawson & made it out to the Johnny Appleseed Festival here in Ft. Wayne.  We had some great food & got to walk around a bit.  We are working on him saying "Grandma" but he definitely loves all her attention!!

Pretty sure I was only turned around for a minute, but there was yogurt & ketchup everywhere.

Watching a spider before he decided to try & catch it.
