Adventures in Toddler World

My dad asked John the other day if Abigail ever stops moving -- the answer is no. This little girl is always on the move. Sometimes I have recently put her in her crib and turned a movie on just to keep her contained.

Currently....Our last trip to the doctor had her weighing over 24lbs. She has 12 teeth, including four molars. She loves to dance and run around. She says variations of mom and dad and also a "dee-ga" sound that she says once or multiple times in a row. She is good at folding her arms and imitating more and more of what we do. It is cute when she automatically folds her arms just because the TV is muted or turned off. It is also cute to see how fast she responds when we put music on.

Her Exersaucer converted to a play center -- which John quickly put away when I found this....

She has, fortunately for us, not discovered crib climbing -- so we will see how long the crib lasts for us.

She was quite happy to help me with a batch of brownies.

Modeling the hat Grandma Amy gave her for Easter.

Having fun with the dress-up accessories that came with a Cinderella book I found on clearance while in Colorado.

Still doing breathing treatments at least twice a day -- sometimes we can get away with leaving her in the recliner like that.

Having fun with Daddy on the stairs. He was pretending to teach her a phrase in Italian.


She likes to help throw away her diapers -- but this also includes a new love for the trash can and sometimes throwing others things in there. Sometimes she escapes during diaper changes and its towards the bathroom -- she sits on the toilet occasionally...nothing yet.

She discovered some juice boxes in the pantry and now keeps going for them.

Having fun with Daddy on the piano.

This is rare, but I heard her fussing while eating lunch -- only to look over and see this was happening....

She learned to climb on the recliner and couches -- We used to put things on the top of the couch to keep them from her...not any more

Having fun at a local splash pad.

This little cutie is into everything and sometimes hard to keep up with, but we love it. She is full of smiles and laughter. We just keep finding more reasons to lover her.

Ok, she is adorable! I know I say that every comment I leave, but it's true! I loved the climbing to try to get the juice boxes...kids can be boogers sometimes! Skye was 2 1/2 when she finally figured she could climb out of her crib & I was so happy that we left her in the crib until then since once she was out, nap time seemed to disappear! Again, she is adorable!
