Rubik Cube

Abigail loves playing with her Daddy's Rubik Cube. As soon as he solves it, she likes to mess it up again!

Christmas Eve
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care...

Let it Snow!

We got about a foot of snow. This was Abigail's first time playing in the snow!


Abigail had a difficult time walking in the snow because it was so deep!

Early Christmas in NY

We had an early Christmas celebration in NY last week. Unfortunately, a snowstorm forced us to head home a day early. However, we will be back to visit again next week!

Abigail had fun playing with the dogs!

She also liked all her new toys and books!

Moving Furniture

Now that Abigail can walk, she has shown interest in rearranging the furniture around the house! The funny thing is she moved this dining room chair all the way down the hallway to the living room and then returned it to its place around the table...maybe she likes things in order like her Mama! :)

Officially Walking!

Our little girl is an official walker! She walked all the way down the hallway, explored the kitchen and circled the dining room a few times tonight!

Walking to see Mama and Dada:

I better wear my sneakers to chase after her tomorrow! :)

Turkey Day!

We had a great Thanksgiving together. We have so much to be thankful for!

Ian made a delicious meal for us which included turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, brussel sprouts and pecan pie!



After dinner, Abigail started walking a few steps on her own for the first time! Doesn't turkey usually make you sleepy? :) She really enjoyed falling on the pillows!

Granny's Birthday

We celebrated Granny's birthday on Sunday.


Abigail had so much fun playing with Granny and Pop Pop!

It's a BOY!

Today we found out that we are having a boy! We are all very excited!
Abigail enjoyed seeing her baby brother on the ultrasound too! :)

Sunday Hike

It was a beautiful fall day today. We all went to the Breakheart Reservation for a hike.


Abigail likes stepping on the leaves!

Walking on Fall Leaves

Abigail giggles when she steps on dry leaves!

Pop Pop

Abigail loves her Pop Pop! She also loves saying his name. :)

Playground

Having fun at a local playground!





Playing the drums


I can feel the vibrations! :)

Cool xylophones!



Time to go home

Walking with Pop-Pop

Rice Pudding

Abigail has been trying to feed herself with a spoon. :)

Happy Halloween

Our kangaroo!

16-weeks

Today we had our 16-week appointment. Our doctor did a quick ultrasound so we could see the baby. The baby is very active and had a heart rate of 152 BPM. We have nicknamed the baby "Wiggles". :)


16-week belly picture:

Balancing Cup

Abigail discovered she can balance her cup upside down. Luckily, her cups have spill-proof valves in the lids, or this would be very messy!

Ticklish Belly

Nesting cups

Abigail has been trying to put her cups together, instead of just chewing on them.

Baptism

Abigail was baptized on Sunday, October 4th. We celebrated Abigail's baptism with her godparents, Jaime and Tim and with all her grandparents.

A kiss for her dog!

She wore a beautiful silk dress given to her by Mike and Sarah.


Abigail cried a lot in the church because it was her morning nap time and the organ was loud and startled her.
