Sugar High?

So, Gabriel has never had sugar, at least out side of natural sugars in fruit and stuff, but you wouldn't be able to tell that by the way he has been acting lately. We went to the park the other day and I don't think that I have ever seen him so hyper. He wouldn't stop! Crawling from one side of our blanket to the other, then sitting up, then rolling, then crawling, then turning around, then sitting up, then crawling again, then reaching for something, then...just would not stop. The best part is that he was really having a great time. It wasn't like he was bored and needed something different to do, he was so happy, and having a ton of fun. Maybe he just enjoys his new mobile lifestyle now.


The other thing that I relearned about Gabriel during our pic nic in the park was just how determined he is. When he decides he wants to do something he will not stop until he gets it. I can see this as a good and bad thing. It really will depend on how well Belem and I raise him. If he learns the gospel, its importance, and how to use that determination towards accomplishing good and wholesome goals in life, than it will be a fantastic gift. Now Belem and I need to be determined to make sure that's what happens.
