Birthday pictures...

I forgot to post the pictures from Abby's birthday morning and just found them on my iPhone...she was so happy to get to blow candles out when she woke up, and that they were in donuts!  If only every day could be her birthday. ;)

Story time with Abby

**Sorry about the coughing - I tried to hold it back!**

Abby turns 3!

I can't believe my little baby is 3 years old!  Time is flying so fast.

And in honor of her birthday - she got to have a several parties of course.  We went to Ennis to celebrate with family, and then we had a big party here in Austin at the Little Gym where she takes gymnastics, and then she had one last final party on her actual day in her class at school.

She is really loving this attention, especially the part where you sing happy birthday to her!

Here are a few pictures...

Concentration

Dancing...

Girl has got some moves!

Party Time

All of Abby's friends are turning 3, so we have at least one birthday party every weekend (sometimes two!). Her favorite places are the bounce houses...when all her friends are there.  She goes crazy and it's so hard to keep up with her!

Here are a few pictures from her friend Ethan's party.

Foam Pit

Even Daddy was having fun!

 

And this is what happens at 5pm due to skipping a nap for the party!

Sweet Berry Farm

Today we went out to Sweet Berry Farms to get our Fall pumpkins and enjoy the cooler weather we are having today.  They have so much to do there - we were there all morning!  We started the day painting a pumpkin, then we fed the goats, then we pick flowers that are now sitting beautifully on the kitchen table, then we stuffed a scarecrow (whom Abby immediately named "Princess").  She's found her home on our front porch rocker.

I love this farm and can't wait to go back again in the Spring when they do strawberries and vegetables!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

First day of Pre-School!

I'm a little late posting it, but I snapped this photo of Abby's first day of pre-school.  She was a little nervous because she knew something was going to be different that day, and wasn't 100% clear on what that meant.  But she's perfectly happy now and excited to be in a new "big" class room.

Can't leave home without that blanket!

Silly girl

And just because she's cute - here is her 2nd day photos too. :)

Tea for Two...

I walked into the playroom this past weekend after hearing lots of British accents and something about tea (why we have to talk in an accent, not sure, just seems right).

Abby had dressed Matt up and they were having a Tea Party.  She has a chest of dress up clothes with jewelry and accessories, and they look so good on Matt!

So pretty

And one more self-portrait (she's a camera hog!)
