There's No One Like Me
This is a title of a silly little song on one of Abby's CDs. This picture sums it up for her, though. She asked mommy to help, "hap, hap!" her to put on this sock. As a one-year-old, Abigail has really started showing her unique personality- including her opinions, her desires, her likes and her dislikes. For example, Abby likes: Naps, spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, fried chicken, her thumb, turkey with gravy, letting Cosette lick her fingers after she eats, mashed potatoes, running around outside, going outside, saying "outside" (sounds something like "ass-haa"), putting her hat and shoes on to go outside, pretzels, Goldfish, apples, grapes, typing on the computer, getting things off the table, slipping on mommy's shoes, playing throw- and try to catch, hording things in her baby stroller and pushing it around, playing "I'm gonna get you," and tackling Cosette. Music deserves a separate adjective. Abby LOVES music. She got her own MP3 player for Christmas. It has 4 buttons: Play, stop, back, and forward. She hasn't quite figured out the intricacies of the music player, but she's learning more every day. If needed, she just asks for "hap! hap!" Abby dislikes: Vegetables (though we have found some fried sweet potatoes and some dried string bean salty-greasy things she likes), getting dressed, not getting mommy or daddy's cel phone while they are talking on it, getting her diaper changed (though learning to tolerate it), sitting in a cart in a grocery store for more than 10 minutes (most of the time), and Cosette eating something that she unintentionally dropped. Abby uses several signs, and uses them well to get what she wants. She recently has started to use "please" which is a nice replacement for the verbal "aaaaaahhhhh!"
