Baby Gabe

What’s amazing about this video is not how well he’s walking but how playful he is when he’s got a bad cold (yes, he’s sick again… ).  We thought about taking him to his doctor until we found a website that played audio of various coughs.  We narrowed it down to croup or a wet cough, both of which are viral, so the doctor couldn’t have done anything anyway.  He’s feeling much better now, but at the time of the video, he was still battling the cough, a runny nose, congestion, and a fever.

He just took his first steps two days ago.  Now he’s running around everywhere.  He hasn’t quite gotten the concept of stopping yet.  He just runs into things and bounces off.

We suspected Baby Gabe could walk a while ago, but he was just too comfortable crawling.  His A-ma suggested we test him, and that’s how we found out he was punking us for a while now.
