Abby freaked out (in a good way) over a gift from Aunt Sara and cousins Koty and Shyanne: A pink puppy that makes cute sounds and wags its tail and flops it ears when you pull it along. In fact, the other day, she screamed every time I stopped pulling it. I redirected her to use the sign for "more"- 'cause that's the closest one I know for "do it again," and she did it instead of screaming. Now, whenever she wants me to pull it for her again, she signs "more" instead of screeching at an eardrum busting decibel. Baby sign rocks! The picture below is not of that particular incident- but it gives you a good idea of Abby's spiritedness when she is not getting what she wants at the moment.
Some other pictures from the wonderfully beautiful fall days we have been having- and a play date with a fella Abby has known since before they were born. We met Jackson's parents in our Prepared Childbirth class at UNC, and are glad to have kept in touch with them!
Play at the park on a cool day:
