So much to share...so little time

Gabe is beginning to be more interested in Gavin. He likes showing him things and playing with him more and more. He also likes to point to Gavin's body parts and identify them like he is able to do on himself...eyes, ears, mouth, hair, etc. Gabe is starting to share his toys with Gavin like such a sweet big brother. He will hand Gavin things to hold and then giggle proudly when he grasps them. Gabe is very patient and tries hard to be gentle with Gavin (most of the time). He says "ease" because I always tell him to be easy with his brother.

Gavin just looks admiringly at Gabe and watches him intently for all of his waking hours. We took a ride today in the car and Gabe reached over and held Gavin's foot in the carseat. It's gonna be so neat to watch them grow up together. Gabe will not know a time when Gavin wasn't part of our family. That's a really special bond they'll have.
