Happy 4th of July

Happy 4th of July to you all, families and friends! Hope you all had a great 4th of July yesterday. Mommy and Gabriella were excited that Daddy had a day off on the 4th of July so he would be with us to celebrate. On that day, we all had no plans but had errands to do. Also, we were relaxing and chilling at home.

Relaxing at home, Daddy and Gabriella were talking to each other. For you all who are Mommy's hearing impaired friends that cannot hear or understand what they said, we are showing below what they said to each other:


Gabriella: Ha ha... uhhh

Kevin: Yeah, are you talking?! Hi, everybody! This is Gabriella talking!!

Gabriella: Ohhhh, Oooh

Kevin: Yea, "goo goo". I said "Hi, Happy 4th of July!"

Gabriella: Uhhh! Cooo! (gurgle)

Kevin: Hi Grandma Ana, and Grandma Trish...

Gabriella: (sounds like Yeah!!)

Kevin: Yea, and soon you will see your Grandpas, too, and all of your Uncles and Aunts and Cousins from Illinois... Bye (as she lifts her right hand) Bye for now! We love you!

Gabriella: (sounds like Bye!)

Kevin: Bye, yea, Good Girl! (Gabriella moving here right hand): Use your signs!

Gabriella: Coo, as see lifts both hands

Kevin: Bye, Bye!


After a long day, Daddy and Gabriella took a nap time while Mommy cleaned and organized things around the apartment. While they were sleeping, Mommy sneaked in the bedroom to take pictures of them. Hehee




Refreshed, we all went up to the roof to see the fireworks after dark. Unfortunately, the view of the fireworks was blocked by several buildings, and although we could see some, the pictures did not turn out well. :(

But, we did get some photos of us:

Gabriella & Mommy: Where are these fireworks, anyway?!
