Talking with Daddy

Abby and Matt were having a really serious conversation yesterday and I happened to catch it all on video. ;)

Log rolling and talking...

HAPPY EASTER!

Today our Country Club and HOA had an Easter "Egg-stravaganza". They had a petting zoo, blow up slide, face painting, egg hunts, food...the works. It was KID mania. And total Suburbia. :) But it was really fun and Abby loved being outside and watching all the kids running around. The weather is beautiful - it's sunny and 80 degrees. We walked from our house to the club and it was perfect!

And of course - we had to snap some photos of Abby with the Easter Bunny! We couldn't really get her to look at us. She was so interested in this large white fluffy thing...and wanting to put the large white fluffy hand in her mouth...that she couldn't focus on us or the camera. haha

I'm a big girl now!

Abby is eagerly trying to learn to sit up all by herself, so we bought a Boppy pillow to give her a little support (and a soft place to fall...). She's been "practicing" sitting up a lot. Even today when I tried to put her in the car seat she much preferred to sit up than to lay back and let me buckle her in. It's really cute watching her each day. Seems each week brings a new skill for her to master.

I tired to upload a video of her sitting on the Boppy beside me on the couch, but for some reason blogger won't let me. So I put it on YouTube!

Jump, jump, jump

Abby has started to actually "jump" in the jumperoo now! It has a setting that plays music when she jumps - and I think she's put two and two together and has it all figured out.

Such a smart girl. :)

Comb-over

Reminds me of someone I know...

Baptism

Abby was baptized at the Methodist Church in Ennis last Sunday, March 21. We were so worried about her being fussy, or bored, or hungry during the service but she surprised us all and was a perfect little angel.

Of course she couldn't NOT make her presence known...during the "let's bow our heads and pray" part, Abby thought that's the best time to let out a nice loud burp and three sneezes. :) That's my girl.

Here are some pictures of the day:

And Abby got to see her little man friend again this weekend too! My friend Lindsey was in town with her son Calan. I just love those two.

And one more - just for cuteness!

4 Months Old!

Abby is 4 months old today! I can't believe how the time is flying so quickly. She's starting to sleep through the night (the whole night!) more often than not, she loves to sit up in the Bumbo and Boppy at daycare so she can see the world all around her and she's really good and flipping from her back to her tummy.

And we are starting to feel like we have a sense of normalcy in our life. :) If there is such a thing with a 4 month old...

Here is Abby's 4 month photo!

The outtakes were so funny, I had to post some of them...

Abby eating her sign...

Abby just being Abby...

The tide is high but I'm holding on...

Jumperoo

Since Abby is such an active and alert little girl - I decided to go ahead and get her jumperoo! I was going to wait until she was 4 or 5 months old...but the way she plays with all the toys at daycare, I thought she might like it now.

And like it she does!! We put her in last night and it was like she had done this many times before...and knew exactly what to do. I think we'll get lots of playtime out of this over the next year!

Her little feet don't yet touch the ground, but the Wii Fit box does just the trick!
