Merry Christmas!

We had a great 1st Christmas as a new family in our new home. Matt's parents came down to spend the holiday with us and made us some fabulous meals! Abby is at her "6-week peak" cranky/fussy stage...so she was a bit of a challenge most of the time. We were very thankful to have 2 more people on hand to walk around with her (the ONLY thing that seems to soothe her!). But we still love her. :)

Of course we tried to get a few pictures - none of which really came out that great. haha One of us was always doing something goofy. But I thought I'd post a few of the "better" ones.

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!

Wardrobe change #2 of 4

(we can't keep anything clean today!)

Should I be worried about the way she is

eyeing the champagne???

Announcement

This is the announcement I sent to all my coworkers, etc. I thought it turned out pretty good. It's a bad scan...I promise it looks better in person!

Spa Day

"I'm all ready to go in my robe -

so how does this spa thing work?"

"Steam room...check. Mani/Pedi...check."

"But I wanted the AROMATHERAPY massage!!"

Such a big girl...

Today was Abby's 1-month Pediatrician visit and she weighed in at a whooping 10lbs, 3ozs! She's in the 75th percentile for her age. So she's a little bit above average.

That's our little overachiever. :)

Baby Pictures...

Here are pictures of both Matt and I as babies. We got them out to do a little comparison with Abby.

What do you think...does she look like Mommy or Daddy?

Snowing in Austin??

Since we are due for snow on Friday, Abby and I decided it was time to break out the "baby Uggs" and her cute little outfit from Great Grandma Heign.

She's such a show off... :)
