Doing Big Girl Things

The life of a 19-month-old is never boring. There are new discoveries to make every day. Lots of fun to be had. I am not working the month of July- so I'm really enjoying spending time with Abby every day. We're also encountering those typical toddler challenges- like making decisions. Abby is really big on making her own decisions... and standing her ground... firmly. We are very proud to say that Abby has successfully used the potty a few times. This morning, she actually asked to sit on the potty- and she went pee pee! We're taking it easy with potty training- but since she's telling us she's ready, we're going to try it out. Here are some recent pictures from Abby's adventures. Abby is changing so much, and so fast! The first 4 pictures are of Abby having soooo much fun with her 3-year-old cousin Rhony.
















Next is a sampling of the various crafts and activities mommy and Abby have been engaging in: First, jewlery making with green playdough (made by buddy Owen and his mom); second, stirring (we love to stir stir) some old spices (mint) in with some water; and finally, for more fun, stirring- but this time with flour, which gets really fun and gooey, and you can smear it between your toes if you are one year old and think that is a good idea.















Next- 4th of July Parade with buddy Owen (Wowo) and his family.





















And... a super awesome visit with Grandpa! Notice the cool jammies from Aunt Sara, and cousins Coty and Shyanne!
