My sweet little Abby is 18 months on the 18th of March! Its a magic birthday... it won't happen again until she is 18... scary thought. Anyway she is just as sweet as can be! Since Sunday she has just taken off with the whole walking bit... she took awhile to get into it but now she is loving her new freedom! At the doctor check-up she was 19.2 lbs... we finally broke the 19 lb mark, Yeah! Otherwise she is laughing, yelling, smiling and wrapping us all around her little finger tighter and tighter every day! Oh, and I finally got the guts to take away the precious binky on monday too! Adam has been telling me for months now to get rid of it but I kept making excuses to keep it! She only used it in her crib to sleep but that meant for a couple of tough days at bed and nap time. She has done pretty well with out it though! Here are some pictures to update ya'll! ... Adam and I are doing good too! Adam is almost done with his classes this semester. Its been a tough one to say the least. I am just trying to keep the house clean and get food prepared and on the table for my starving husband :) ... and let's all say HOORAY for warm weather!!!!
Abby found her toes on the ride home today... oh and don't worry, I was stuck in traffic when I took these pictures!
Has anyone heard the story of the guy with a camel and he is in a tent? Its one of those that they tell you in Young Womens at Church. Well here is it briefly... a guy is in the desert with his camel and the guy puts up his tent and is in it becuase there is a really bad wind storm. Well the camel sticks his nose in and complains that it is so cold and windy, can he just put his nose in? So they guys says okay. Well the story goes on and before you know it the guy is out in the wind and the camel is in the tent. Typically this refers to the devil and his evil tactics.
Well for our house this refers to Abby!! She is so funny, she has to be at the very center of everything. Like when Adam is on his laptop she has to be right in the center of his lap right in front of the laptop, not to the side watching, right in the middle. She does the same thing as the camel, first her hands. Then she trys to peer with her head. Next she will try and put her foot over, etc until finally she is right in your lap. She does this when I try and put my make up on too! She is so funny!
Digital scrapbooking is so much fun! I just want to give a shout out and thanks to Malia and Kara for helping me learn about this wonderful new world we call Digital! Happy scrapping :o)
So the picture of Adam, Abby and me in my last post needs some explaining. The "hat" Adam has on is not just a hot new trend! You see back in the day when the Brough kids used to put on their little Christmas nativity scene, Adam always ended up being the lamb. He said that he used to enjoy that part because he could just run around and make funny animal noises. SO at our Brough Christmas party this year we did a little Christmas nativity scene and everyone was laughing about how Adam was always the lamb. Well, lo and behold Adam's brother just happened to have the "hat" Adam used to wear in his basement. For old times sake and for a good laugh Adam wore his special "hat". I will have to check with Adam's mom to see if she has a picture of little Adam in his lamby hat!
