Silly baby...

Keeping Abi entertained all day between naps can be interesting...
Sweet Potato face. I'm not really sure about eating yet. She mostly thinks it's funny, but has gagged a few times on these sweet potatoes...
Laughing at Mom!
Concentration on getting that hat into my mouth. I'm sitting up better now!

Stupid things Mom does to me...

These really don't need an explanation... other than Abi has lots of hair! I couldn't decide which of the last two were funniest because of the faces she's making, so I posted both!

Bath time silliness! Rockin' the Cupie doll look...
I'm learning to spit...
I can hear her say "Geez, Mom! Really?!?!

Easter Brunch!

Our friend, Gavin, Nana, Owen and Pampo!

Sweet goodness that is French Toast Bake w/ a rum-raisin syrup!
Exquisitely layered spinach, egg, ham, and red bell peppers in a flaky crust...
The spread...
My sister nervous about taking her torta out of the pan!

After going to church for Easter we got together for a Sunday Brunch. Boy, was it amazing! Fresh fruit galore, french toast bake, and a breakfast torta. It's so nice to get together for some homemade food and good company!

Easter Cousins!

Autumn can crawl now over to Abi when she wants to play!
So sweet! Autumn was going in for a kiss while Abi happily received!
An Easter dress Nana got me! Don't I look pretty? Too bad I soiled my bloomers first thing...
Owen got some tool toys in his Easter basket. Here are his work goggles!
Autumn sure is beautiful in her Easter best!

Easter was a blast with my family! Chris was in Canada competing at a bagpipe competition, but we managed to have fun without him... We do miss you when you go away, Dada! The cousins sure love playing with each other and I bet it's going to get even more fun as they age.

Stinking cute!

I guess I got these long, beautiful eyelashes from my Dad...
I fell in love my feet this week!
Doing the 'Happy Baby' yoga pose!
Ah-Choo!

Yowzers Mom! You caught me eating my hands again!

Just some pics of gorgeous, little Abigail. She weighs 11 lbs. 7 oz. now and is 24" long. Did well with her second round of shots and is learning to eat pureed food. It's such a joy raising her! I miss her when she naps!

A few more silly pics!

Putting away dishes with Mommy!
Mommy is not using her Bender ball, so I will!

18 weeks!

Abi is growing so much! Sometimes I pick her up and she feels quite heavier than the day before. Her 4 month appointment with her doctor is on Wednesday, shots included. Wish us luck! She can get her ears pierced soon! Auntie Nessa promised to go with us and says I will probably cry. Can't be any worse than shots, I suppose. Here are some silly pictures of us trying to entertain her...
Daddy gave her her first allowance!
Trying to eat Mommy!
Playing with her crochet blocks. She uses her feet as much as her hands!
I know I'm cute!
Bath time fun!

Abi in her Bumbo!

Eating bananas for the first time. She was sort of indifferent about them...
Sitting up in her recliner.
Playing, all dressed-up.
Eating her hands, a favortie activity.

Abi inherited a Bumbo from her cousin, Autumn. It's a foam-like seat that helps her sit-up. I think she feels more independent in it. She sits in it to play and to eat. Here are some pics of her acting like a big girl!

Mommy can make me laugh! Here I am playing peek-a-boo in the sink!

Almost 4 months!

So I can't beleive it's been 4 months already! Abi is a great baby! She's got more of a napping schedule down and she likes to eat... bottles! Since Mommy has gone back to work she's starting to refuse anything but the bottle. She's already showing her independence. We're working on trying to teach her to sit up and roll over, but mostly she likes to be carried around the house to look at new things. She loves going to her cousin's house and grandparents house for a change of scenery. I don't think she'll ever have a problem being dropped off to play with the one's she loves! Her first overnight at Nana's will happen soon... Mommy is a little reluctant, but she know's Abigail will be a good girl! Here are a few pics of Abi's antics around the house!
Abi riding Banger like a horse! Daddy wants to make a saddle!
This is where Mommy puts Abi when she has to get ready with Abi awake. Abi likes watching Mommy put on her make-up and comb her hair. What a girl!
Daddy getting ready to Abi to bed in her snuggly swaddler!
Having dinner at Nana's house!
Mommy is obsessed with these adorable toes!
