Funny Girl

Thursday, August 16, 2012 by Leslie Paladino

I’m way behind on my updates so we’ll just do a few together while I’m on a roll.  I still have to go back and do Gabby’s recital video from June (yikes!) and our summer pictures.  Those will have to wait for another day. 

Our Gabby girl has such a unique way of playing that I thought I would include some pictures of some of her favorite things to do right now.

Gabby’s favorite show right now is Doc McStuffin’s.  It’s a Disney Jr show with a little girl who has a magic stethoscope that can bring her toys to life and then she fixes them in her clinic when they’re injured.  So cute!  So Gabby has opened up a “clinic” in her room and taken on the roll of Doc.  This little setup is Hallie (supposed to be a hippo) who assists Doc and checks in patients.

Posing with all her helpers, Hallie, Lamby and Stuffy (which is supposed to be a dinosaur but apparently is a whale here).

We took Gabby to see Brave which of course she had to come home and recreate.  The princess in Brave has red curly hair and since we don’t have any red curly wigs (which she really wants) she had to create her own.  :)  This is a daily ordeal in our house.  Her play has to be very specific and if we don’t have the character she’s thinking of paper can fix that!  She is constantly printing or drawing things to tape to her Barbie’s or in this case her head.

She put this little outfit together all by herself.  Love the socks and heels.  And I guess her posing is leftover from dance class.  This is her favorite pose right now.

Mommy and Daddy holding hands.  I think she was pretty generous with Michael’s hair in this picture.  :)

Peter was bothering Gabby one day so she made this sign to hang on her door to keep him out.  I love the sad face she drew for Peter and the arrows to make sure he knows he is not supposed to open her door.  I know it’s not a nice sign but I loved her creativity.
