The Rarely Seen Quiet Side

Gwen is RARELY quiet. That girl is full of spunk and energy. She is a little camera shy though. It is amazing how hard it is to capture her smiling when that is all she does in reality. Here is a video of her just watching Steven work on the grill. I will try to post some more of her playing tomorrow. I figured that soon enough it will be hard to get her to stay still to capture long videos of that sweet face so I wanted to get them in there while I could!

Getting Too Skilled in "NO"

Gwen has definitely picked up on the word "No." Now she will even shake her head every time she hears someone say the word even if they do not gesture it and they are not even directing the term at her. Not sure how much longer that is going to be "cute." She has learned to wave, but that one is much harder to get her to do. She does it at the right times so when you try to get her to do it out of the blue just for the camera, she flat out refuses. She's too smart for me. Today I got her dressed up in her cammie dress, but she was impossible to take pictures of because she was screaming trying to get the camera from me while I attempted to snap a cute shot. I finally gave in and let her have our old broken camera to hold on to. It didn't work for long because the one I had was much cooler of course:
