Gabe's "Room"
Not to be outdone by the lair of cuteness that is Olivia's room, Gabe now has a room of his own. Nana's ingenious idea to use bi-fold doors to create walls has given Gabe a perfect place of his own once he moves out of our room. Of course, he first needs to move out of Rebecca...
These doors can be closed so he won't be disturbed by anyone walking by.
She managed to find this very adorable bedding set. Considering Olivia's penchant for octopuses (yes, we looked that up) and fishies, I was surprised that she wasn't the least bit jealous of Gabe's decor. She simply pointed out what each animal was and left it at that.

Olivia's Room
We spent this weekend decorating Olivia's room. It took the better part of 2 days, but it was worth it. The room looks wonderful and Olivia loves it! A huge THANK YOU to Nana and Pop-pop for helping us out!

Pictures of Gabe
We went last weekend to Tiny Toes Imaging, a 3D ultrasound place, and got a great set of pictures of Gabriel.
His eyes were open for some of the appointment.
He kept trying to hide from us, so the tech kept pushing onRebecca's belly to get him to move around.
We actually made him cry! :(
Of course, being my son, he wasn't upset for long and was ready to go back to sleep in no time.
All that wavy, scrambled egg-looking stuff on top of his head (not by his cheek) is hair!

Rebecca's Wallet Adventure
Since Rebecca hasn't gotten around to telling the story, I will. :)
About a week ago, Rebecca went shopping and then to a friends house to hang out. After she left her friends house, she was going to grab Olivia a bite to eat at a Chick-Fil-A and she realized she didn't have her wallet. Uh-oh! She had put it in her pocket when she checked out at the store, so she went back to see if she might have dropped it. No luck. No one had turned in a wallet and it wasn't lying in the parking lot. She called her friend and they searched their house, but it wasn't there either. When I got home from work, I searched through her car and the bags she'd had with her, but once again, no joy. So we called and cancelled all our credit cards (except my Amex) and her ATM card. About 2 hours after we went through all this trouble, she was checking her email and she saw a Facebook friend request from some 20-year-old UNC-G student. She was about to blow him off when she saw that he had sent her a message. She accepted his friend request, read the message and lo and behold, he had her wallet! He'd found it in the middle of the street between the store and her friend's house. Apparently Rebecca had taken the wallet out of her pocket and set it on top of the car while she buckled Olivia into her car seat. She must have driven off with it still on the roof! She got the guy's address and we went and picked up the wallet. Everything was still in it, including the cash, which we gave him as a reward.
It's amazing that this guy went through the trouble of searching Facebook to find her and return her wallet. It kinda restores our faith in people that someone would make that extra effort to return the wallet rather than going on a shopping spree before we could get the cards cancelled.
