End of March Catch-Up...

I can't believe I haven't posted since the 3rd! Here is a catch-up of the past month...



Most recently, we had a great visit with Don, Jilll and Amelia Eilmes. They drove down from Indianapolis to visit since we try and make the trip every year but take turns (i.e. Big Gay Migration to Indy next Spring! We seem to always coincide our trip with tax season, and they always seem to visit us when I am pregnant. We'll see how that goes when they visit us again in 2012 :) We had amazing weather the first two days they were in town, so we set up the sprinkler Don and Jill gave Abbey for her birthday. I think it was a hit!




As you can see, the sprinkler moved locations many times!

Another part of our routine has "changed" in the mornings...Abbey, more than ever, loves watching videos of Avery and also a couple of videos of her playing with her cousins during our visit to Spokane this past January. She sits and smiles while I usually finish getting ready for the morning, and it also gives me a chance to put her hair up.


The weather is also finally getting better, so Abbey and I spend a large part of the day wandering around the yard and the neighborhood, playing ball in the driveway, or drawing with her chalk on the deck.






I also wanted to put up some pictures of Abbey asleep in her big girl bed. She has good days and bad in it; she sometimes will get up out of bed many times and run to her door/gate where I am waiting for her, and sometimes she will not get up at all, but she always falls asleep eventually. I took these pictures at the end of her nap the other day.





I also added 5 new videos to the youtube site! Enjoy!

Revisiting an Old Friend






My friend Sara brought back Abbey's baby toys the other day; we had lent them to her for her baby Conner. Abbey enjoyed climbing into the seat and playing with the toys and jumping around before we put it up in the attic. I'm sure when we bring it out for the baby she'll revisit her old friend the bouncer again!
I also posted two new videos on the youtube, one is of Abbey wiping her doll Andy as if he had made a "stinky".
