Christmas!

Abby got so many great Christmas presents! Some of them are:
Blanket and hat handmade by Grandma Jackie

Bath toys from Auntie Carlee

Scooter from Grandpa Pleasnick - was that for Abby or for Mommy?

Just like Mr. Toad's Wild Ride

Merry Christmas!

We hope you have a Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!

Oh Mom, not another picture . . .


Well, if we must take one, I guess I'll pose


Someone spends too much time in the tub

Just Like Daddy

My mom got Abby her own laptop. Now she likes to sit and work with Daddy. :-) Thanks Mom and Dad!

Abby & Avary

Little Avary came over to visit and Abby got to hold her. She thought that was pretty cool! We took some more pics of Avary - you can see them at www.sweetgirlphoto.com

A favorite thing

Abby loves playing outside, and loves eating berries. She knows where the raspberries and strawberries in the yard are, and at least once a day goes to each and signs "please" to have me look for some. It's slim pickings in November!

Delany

My friend Dualy just had a little girl. Abby loves her and is excited whenever she sees her! There's more pics on Sweet Girl Photo!

Swinging with the Dollies

Yes, she is too big for a baby swing, now she usually just puts her baby dolls in it. But it's just too cute to resist adding her to the doll pile sometimes.

Christmas Cards

Many of you probably know that I've been doing more photos and designing cards. Here's an example and a link to our site if you are interested in seeing more!

Baby Kangaroo

Abby had fun in her kangaroo costume. You can put all kinds
of things in the little pouch. We took her to a few houses
to get some candy. She thought that was pretty cool!!

It looks like Emma is checking Abby's tonsils, but really she is being really sweet and letting Abby give kisses.

A Belated Labor Day

We spent yesterday as a belated Labor Day holiday and enjoyed San Diego for the day. The highlight was biking.

their grand-baby.

Visit with Grandpa and Great Grandma

Swimming

Last weekend, we got to go swimming with the Tracys & Millers. Katelyn looked so cute in her swim suit dress. I promise, that's a smile on Abby's face where she's tossed in the air!

This is impossible to film-she always goes for the camera

Some Firsts

A cup of milk, brushing her teeth, swimming in her pool . . . just enjoying the little things!

Looking like a girly-girl

Time in Spokane

Abby and I went to Spokane last week to visit family.  Highlights of the trip include:  biking with my sister Dana, going to Silverwood water park, roasting hot dogs and marshmallows at the state park, watching Abby play with her cousins, coffee at Rockwood, and an evening stroll through Riverfront Park.
