Holiday Fun - December 2010

Abby loved decorating gingerbread cookies. She has a good eye and was happy and proud to give them to her teachers at school.

This Christmas Abby tried her hand at baking. We found this neat little recipe for what we call pretzel cookies. She had so much fun being the cook and was so very careful to get the m& m's in the very center of the kiss. SO cute, can you see how proud she is.

She loves the Christmas tree. This is the first year that she really knew what was going on and really got in to the spirit of Christmas. She also loved delivering cookies to neighbors and making popcorn garland and ornaments for the tree. I love seeing the world through her eyes!

Abby's 3rd Birthday - November 11th, 2010

Since we moved so close to Abby's birthday we didn't know anyone to invite to a party for her birthday here in CT. So she just celebrated with us. We took her to Chuckie Cheese's but those pictures are on my phone and haven't pulled them off yet. So our little princess received a princess, prince castle and all the fixins for her birthday. She s really getting into pretend play. She is growing so fast.....can't believe she is 3, just yesterday she was being born.

Madame Lady Bug - Halloween October 2010

Abby wanted to be a Lady Bug for Halloween so we bought her costume in CA and brought it with us to CT. As you can tell we were still waiting on our furniture when Halloween rolled around. It gets dark at 5 pm here and it was pretty cold so she did not go out very long but she loved being in her costume and flying around the empty space in the house.

Where have we been...

So it has been 2+ year since I have updated our blog, so I am going to try to do better at keeping up with life and sharing with friends. Abby is growing so fast and is changing everyday. Compare the pictures when I get them posted. We moved from CA in September and arrived in CT in October after a visit to family along the way across country. We are only here in CT till April and then we are being transferred to VA.

My Babies!!!

When we were waiting for a house here in CT we were staying in the Navy Lodge. Abby wanted Buddy to sleep in her bed, this was the cutest picture of them together since she was a baby. Buddy loved it. My two little cuties.

Making Abby's First Birthday Cake

Abby wanted to help make her Birthday Cake and was very interested in the mixer. She didn't know what she thought about the batter. After careful examination she decided to give it a taste.

What some chicken!

We were having dinner one night while Grannie was visiting and she gave Abigail chicken bones to teeth on. She said this was what she used to my brother and I when we were little. She was so cute and looked so happy we just had to share it.
