Trains!

My mom and sister came to visit Abby last weekend and got roped in to her most favorite attraction at the mall. :)

And rockin' the guitar...

Swim Lessons

Abby had her first swim lessons last night and loved it.  She was a bit timid at first until she figured out how it all worked, but then she loved it!  We will go once a week until she's winning the Gold medal at the Olympics...

Happy Easter!

We've had a fun Easter this year.  Abby is loving the holidays!

Dying Easter eggs

Finished product!

Oh - there is a green one!

"I see a pink one!"

Six eggs this year - a record!


This is the closest she would get to the bunny. 
She liked him, but wouldn't do it alone.

Videos

I am getting ready to head to Australia so I thought I'd post a few videos of Abby over the last couple of days.  I took some time off before my long trip to just have fun with her.  I love how much personality she has!!

Garbage Man!




Running like a crazy girl on our country club lawn!




Today I took her to a place called Jumpstreet.  There are rows and rows of trampolines and bounce houses, and foam ball pits, and video games.  There is an entire section for little ones...and this morning we had the place all to ourselves for about 15 minutes!

Bluebonnets are here

With all this rain we've been getting, the wild flowers are popping up all over town.  Our neighbor (who is also Abby's teacher Ms. Jo) had planted bluebonnets last year in their flower bed.  Those same bluebonnets have come back this year in force and are now taking over their entire yard!  Before they get them under control, we thought it was a perfect time to snap a few photos of Abby.

Strawberries!

Yesterday was a beautiful day and the opening weekend for picking strawberries at Sweet Berry Farms in Marble Falls.  And the berries were fantastic!!

Eating fresh strawberry ice cream and popcicles to start off the day!



This one looks good!


Feeding the goats




The finished product - fruit pizza!

E

Abby's new iPad game teaches her to write her letters.  I thought she wouldn't be ready for this app until she was a bit older...I was wrong.

I've trained her well

This is a video I shot of Abby doing her own laundry.  She's so good at it...except when she gets a bit side tracked. :)



*Disclaimer: she really didn't put her finger in the cat's water bowl like it appears.  Promise.
