Gabriel has changed quite a bit over the past month. He has started to gain weight more rapidly so his face has changed a bit. He is very expressive. Leah and Louis had these huge chubby faces and Gabriel's is better defined so it's easy to see what he's doing with his face more. He has started to babble some and is smiling & laughing up a storm.
