Hard as it is to believe, the time has come for Miss Abby to turn two. She knows she is turning two. She smiles when we talk about her birthday, and then she says that Sara is going to be one. Abby is a funny girl, she just might know she is telling a joke, just maybe.
So, life has caught us full in the diaphragm the past year and posting has plummeted the value of so many homes... so what is Abby like.
(1) Abby is full of love: She always has a hug for you, and maybe even a kiss, and unless it is too early in the morning or she's hungry, Abby has a smile for you too.
(2) Abby lives life loud: Abigail came into this world a screamin' (2 hours straight!), and she hasn't quite calmed down. She likes things her way, or no way. Unfortunately for Abby, her parents have that latter tendency a big too, and so does her big sister. So whether it is in excitement, or rather to educate her surroundings of her desires, she is not shy in letting the world know what she is feeling. Of course, she is turning two, and all of this is as it should be.
(3) Abby adores her big sister: Often her first question of the morning, after getting out of bed, is "Where's duuuduu?" Not sure how Sara got that nickname, best I can figure is that it is a 1-yr old interpretation of "sister", but who knows. Anything Sara does, Abby wants to do too. Well, except learn how to say Sara.
(4) Abby loves cheese: We thought Sara's love affair with parmesan cheese was something, but Abby would eat cheese, and nothing but if we let her, with one exception:
(5) Abby loves sauces: This could be applesauce, or it could be pasta sauce, but it is also gravy, and ketchup. Just a spoon please, don't bother with the other stuff....
(6) Abby likes books: Not a surprise in this house.... but she warmed to them pretty slowly, only the last 4-5 months has she really started to take much of an interest. So much so that she prefers to take one to bed with her, where it occupies a place that is often held by a stuffed animal.
(7) Abby is turning two: We have potty training, and trantrums. We are learning to talk clearly, and keep our hands to our self. We love gymnastics, and legos, and drawing, and games with our family.
(8) Abby is a snuggler: We really, really like this trait, though would prefer it not at 1 am anymore.
Abby is growing up so very fast. Yesterday we went out and bought her a big girl bed, big girl sheets, and a big girl pillow.... Today she will open big girl presents and have a little party. Our little girl is growing up.
