We are tired. Gabriel is having a ball as long as we don't tell him it is nite nite time. He is sleeping now. He was screaming/crying and bringing me all his clothes and saying ON. The thought if he put his clothes back on he would not have to go to bed. He calmed down after a while and passed out. I will be meeting him later this evening I am sure.
Day 1 was also travel day. It was a super full day. Gabriel did not want to sleep even in the van on the l-o-n-g drive back to Lola's house. Eventually he did but only after we took away his MOVIE.
DAY 1 PHOTOS
Gabriel's first trip on a CHOO CHOO. We took a NJ transit train to the plane. We took a taxi from the house to the train station but sorry no pictures. It was a nice taxi. 
On the tram/train at Newark Airport. We had to take a tram from the airport train station to the terminals. Gabriel was grumpy. 
Gabriel in his carseat/stroller combo. We love it. At Newark Airport eating. 
On the airplane. They made us wait on the runway for just under an hour. Gabriel was good, I had a book of 600 tractor/train/car/farm equipment stickers. 
Gabriel's seat in Lola's minivan. He was pointing to the Elmo video he was watching. He loved watching TV in the car. 
Mall of America family photo. Gabriel could not turn around for the picture because he was staring at the roller coaster. 
His first ride at the Nickelodeon kid world at the Mall of America. He is a very good driver. 
Bryan and Gabriel on the Swiper's Sweeper ride (from Dora and Diego). It really wipped around the corner and was so much faster than anyone thought it would be. We learned that Gabriel just loves the fast crazy rides. 
Gabriel likes helicopters or COPTA COPTA's. 
View of the swing ride at the Mall. Gabriel was too small to ride this one. DAY TWO PHOTOS
He received the bike this morning. He loves it but he still does not understand how to turn the pedals with his feet. He looked at other boys on their bikes while we were out and he looked disappointed. I think he thought the bike would just go by itself. 
He loves the hat and protective-wear. 
He was bad. Just kidding, he thought playing in Maddie's dog crate was fun. Maddie is Ryan's dog. She is a super dog. I have video. Gabriel played fetch with her. Then he played in the outside dog drinking bucket with the dog. 
Bryan playing Ryan's Wii video game. 
Ryan's luxurious ice house. It is a very nice building he tows out onto the frozen lake and fishes(drinks beer). It has two bunk beds, seven holes in the floor with special hole lighting, a mini kitchen for all that fresh fish (drinking beer) a heating system and a bathroom. I had never seen a real one. Gabriel has his feet through one of the holes.

Good job on the post, love. I just finished Gabriel's sign for his float in the Land of the Loon parade on Saturday.
That's a teaser for all our readers out there. ;)
That ice house thing is cool. What could we do with one of those back here in Jersey?
