update

Thought you would appreciate a little "update" on the garcia 3.... (not much longer that I will be able to type that!)

GABBY
Gabrielle: "DAAAADDDYYY.... did you bring up the toilet paper?"
Dad: "yes"
Gabrielle: "thank you, Daddy."
Gabby also recently showed me that she can "connect the dots" that I drew on a piece of paper. She loves to talk and has THE BEST facial expressions/animations when she is telling a story.

MARY
You need to earn Mary's trust. She likes to step back and observe the person/event before jumping in....(unlike Gabby). Once she feels comfortable, you can be her BEST friend. She is also still our best eater and isn't usually picky about what Mommy serves. She gets frustrated easily when she can't do something that she wants to do... and is still our "hoarder" - which means her purses, back-packs, and bags are filled to the brim with "stuff."

MATEO
He is a "player." He pretends he can't hear you...until you get mad and then he jumps to attention. He loves to have his sisters take care of him and will often get them to take his coat and his shoes off for him.... He is very detail oriented and loves to thumb through toy magazines - focusing on dino's, trucks, and building blocks. (He can literally stare at a page for 5 minutes...just taking it all in.) He is starting to talk more and the word most often heard out of his mouth is "sworry." (His version of sorry.)
