When he is asleep he happily gets passed around

Owen gets bored at our house because it isn't baby-proof, so there's not much he can touch

We went for a walk by the river on a cool, breezy day

Sometimes I carry Gabriel in a Zolowear sling

Cutie

In the car on his first road trip out of state

Daddy drove and Mommy sat in back to keep Gabriel entertained

We stopped in Plainview, TX, for the first night

A sun/moon toy provided more entertainment

The storm chasers' convention was held in a hotel near the Denver airport

Snuggling up with Daddy

He was quiet enough to attend some of the presentations with Mommy

Gabriel just started smiling a few days ago!

He's still serious a lot of the time, though...

... and sometimes he's darned angry!

After the convention (where we had a vendor table), we stayed in Limon, CO, on the way home

Yet another closeup shot, in Limon (where Daddy had food poisoning :( )

Gabriel travelled really well. He hardly slowed us down at all; we just stopped to feed and change him.

When we came home, Grandma Vasquez gave him a bottle of fresh Mommy's milk

Sitting in the giant recliner

Playing footsie with Daddy

Yet more Gymni action
