We went to swimming lessons at the Brighton H.S. pool. It was pretty fun, and Gabrielle is quite the water baby. We also had several play dates and went to a water park, too. Gabrielle loved the wading pool and the water slide. We also spent another week in Houghton Lake. This time, Grandpoppy Sulkowski joined us for the week. Gabrielle and him were good buddies. She got to go on the Sea-Doo, kayaking, and in her inflatable boat. Maybe she'll tube next year:) She was also pretty interested in Bocce ball and horseshoes. Let's just say we had a very fun and relaxing week! (Also, Aunt Beth came to stay for a night, too!)
Gabrielle has taken off verbally. She is going to be an early talker. She repeats as many letter sounds as she can. Just after the 15 month post, she started saying, "Mama." It's too cute. We are also working with her on "Poppy." She *almost* has it. She likes to try to say "avocado." Four syllables is a lot for a little girl!
The last bit of interesting news is that we started potty training! Gabrielle has her own potty and has started wearing pull-ups. She knows the sign for diaper, and she will tell me when she needs a diaper change. Pretty convenient, I'd say! Even though we are in the early stages of potty training, she is very aware of the potty process. Without getting into too many details, we have been flushing and saying "bye-bye" to #2's for many months. Whenever Gabrielle hears a toilet flush in the house, she waves. (She also waves at her bath water as it goes down the drain. :) Too funny.
We love that little girl. She brings us more joy than I can even write. I just love to squeeze her and hug her and kiss her!!! Enjoy some of our pics over the last 4 weeks of summertime fun!
