Quick Post with Some Pics

Our apologies for lagging behind in posts. Things have been way too busy around here. Well, to get to the point, Abby is so much fun and so amazing to watch as she changes every day. Personality wise, she is very independent. She's been that way since we first started seeing her personality emerge. Now, however, she uses words and actions to assert her independence. One of the coolest things about Abby is, she's not afraid to try anything. She jumps right in at her weekly music class, and she tries all the equipment at the playground. She'll try almost any food, as long as she sees you eating it. Strangely enough, the child does not like watermelon! Rick and I cannot understand how that could be. On the other hand, she love steamed asparagus! Huh?! It's been great to see Abby's play skills develop. Recently, we've seen her go from playing side-by-side, to engaging with other children and even initiating play. How cool. Enjoy some recent pictures- and we hope to post again very soon!

Abby and friend Sophie at the zoo. First trip for both girls. Sophie is one week older than Abby. Notice the ooo ooo aaa aaas (monkeys) in the background.



Abby and 3-year-old Maya playing in the pool in our back yard... then Abby and Maya soaking wet after putting on dry clothes. Guess they just couldn't resist another dip!
