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. :)

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...

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!

Shake, Shake, Shake....

Abby loves mornings. Today she woke us up by talking to herself in her bed! Matt and I love to be the first one to see her in the mornings - because that person gets the biggest and best smiles of the day. So we try to try to trade off throughout the week! :)

And just to prove our addiction to those sweet baby girl smiles - we will go to great lengths to keep them coming.

Case in point:

Finally....SNOW!

We had an awesome snowfall today. The flakes were coming down so hard that everything was white! It was beautiful...like we were in a snow globe! I decided to go pick Abby up before the roads started to get bad (Austin drivers + snow/rain = bad) and since all the schools were shutting down. I tried to snap a couple pictures of us...but being the model and the photographer made for some interesting shots. But here are a couple...sans me. :)
