New Chair

So, Abby fell in love with Reid's cousin's lawn chair this weekend. So, I found her one with Handy Manny on it. She loves having her "own place to sit" in the living room. Here's some pics of her in it.

One in her chair right after bathy time, but before combing the crazy hair!

"Aw, look at me. Don't I clean up nicely?"

Look at those crazy feet. Lucky she doesn't have the "Faust toes"...I don't think!

I've been seeing this look more and more lately. Furrowed brows, little pout, saying, "Woman! What you doin'?" Something tells me to expect to see this face well through her teenage years.

Now there's a face I love to see! I thought I'd show off how cute she looked with her multiple rubber banded ponytails...NOT my doing, I wouldn't even know where to start with this one!

Then And Now's

I guess I'm in a reminiscent mood, but I just can't believe how big she's getting. Here's a then-and-now of her and Reid Fallin partaking in our newest tradition-Cowboys vs. Buccaneers at the Fallin's house. I also threw a then-and-now of her in her walker. And of course some of her just looking kinda cute.

Abby and Reid "duking it out" at the Cowboy/Buccaneer NFL game last October and one of them last weekend. Not a chance in hell of getting them in the same position! Ha.

They say, "We love a good rivalry!"

Here's her looking cute in a new outfit and a dress I picked up at the thrift store...new kids clothes are waaaaay overrated!

Abby showing mama her potential soccer skills and probably thinking, "Get this stupid dress off of me, lady!"

Just An Update

Abby has decided she loves frozen fruit bars, or popsicles, as we used to call them. I guess they are a little healthier these days, but just as funny all over her face.

And one of her in that grass skirt that she insists on putting on during morning play time. Abby says, "I love daddy thiiiiiiisss much!". She's so funny and such a joy to be around.

Abby's Luau At Daycare

Here's some pics of where Abby spends her days. Of course she was the cutest one, having just returned from a 2 week luau, prepared with her grass skirt. Just thought you'd like to see her room and some friends.

The table where they eat and do artwork...I like how they hang their art low enough for them to admire at their leisure. So funny.

Uh oh, daddy, I think she has an admirer! Meet Matthias, he was with her in her "baby room".

Abby and her friend Alexis, who was also in her "baby room". They moved up at the same time and play together all the time. Her parents are also both military...mom is in the Navy.

Abby reaching for "Mr. Butters", the class guinea pig. She's definitely an animal lover!! And yes, she ditched the grass skirt pretty early on in the festivities.

I was working in the home office this past weekend and looked over and Abby was snuggling up to old Maggie girl. I thought it was blog worthy!

Abby says, "Can I take a nap with you Maggie?"
