Oh Gwen...

Gwen has never been umm, unadventurous. I think having two older sisters has something to do with it. Things just never seen to be beyond her reach. She has this sense of "I can do anything" It really is amazing and I have lots of confidence in her. Probably more than I did with the other two girls. Some of it may be due to this is the third time around and I really don't think babies are born stupid. If they were then well, how did we get to where we are? So I don't freak when she climbs around on the bed, she sees that she can fall and she usually doesn't. Having trust and confidence in your children is an amazing thing.
But still, we have been to the park a few times and I think I am going to kinda miss the just rolling, scooting Gwen I had last summer. But also, I have to admit that things were kinda easier. Just like everything I have seen with being a mom things get harder and easier all the time. There is always a balance. If it ever gets easy I fully expect my life to get crazy shortly after.
So some pictures of our park day. The older kids were a little freaked out that baby Gwen went off the tarp :) Tayla was so sweet to keep an eye on her. I fully expect these two to get into a good bit of trouble this year.




And you always think of Gwen as this sweet little love. But she seriously takes lessons from Layla for stink eye. Gwen definitely has an attitude. She doesn't show it often, but it is there, so watch out! Of course anyone in this family has to at least be able to compete with Layla.
