The first set of pictures are from a couple of weekends ago when Lynda came down to the springs. We ate lunch at Helen Hunt Falls and hung out for a little while. It was so pretty outside.

The second sent of pictures are from work a couple of weeks ago. Abigail was in the "big girl" room playing with some of the toys!

The third set of pictures are from this past weekend. We were eating at a restaurant that didn't have enough high chairs. We ended up barracading an area so that Abigail could crawl around. She had a ball. We then went to the farmers market and a festival held in a park in Old Colorado City.

The last set of pictures are of a tutu dress that I made for Abigail's birthday. The flowers are now smaller than they are shown, haha. The very last picture is of Abigail taking her first unassisted steps. I had her standing up against the ottoman and once her hypnosis was broken away from Sesame Street, she took two steps toward me and then fell flat on her face, haha.

Lynda came down yesterday to spend the weekend. We went to eat a a new to us restaurant in Old Colorado City. We opted to sit outside, since, the weather has been absolutely wonderful for the past week. Yesterday the high was 74, and, though it was cloudy out, it felt so nice. I got a meatball panini, and, Lynda got the quiche. We both were very happy with what we had!!!! Oh, and Abigail had some potato wedges, haha. She only ate a couple, since, she had some oranges beforehand. Right as we finished eating, it began to rain a little bit. By the time we went inside and paid for lunch, it stopped.

After lunch, we dropped Abigail off at my friend, Jessica's, home and then headed out to see Harry Potter. It was a pretty good movie. I was happy to find that they are splitting the last book in two movies. It just seemed to have more depth than the last few. The beginning was a bit dragged out, but, again, I much prefer that to not having enough information. This was also the first book that I haven't read, so, maybe that's another reason I was more satisfied with the movie, haha. After the movie, we picked Abigail up and found out that poor Jessica had been dealing with massive diaper explosions. I guess introducing oranges to Abigail earlier that day was NOT a good idea, hahaha. They did not sit well with her tummy.

Today, I went to pick up some Dunkin Doughnuts, and, found that all of the Springs had the same idea. The line was out the door, and, one of the ladies there mentioned that it had been like that since 7:45 am. At least it was moving quickly. We are now home with full bellies waiting for Christian to call. After that, we'll go pick up some lunch and take it to Seven Falls! I love that place!

Here's a couple of pictures from few minutes ago. Abigail was playing with a book :-P.

Well, there's nothing much new going on. I have found out over the past week that my child is a purse lover... It's kind of odd, but, I guess she does she me with the diaper bag all of the time. A couple of days ago, she pulled a wristlet out of my diaper bag, and, decided she would put it over her shoulder. She does this every time she digs it out!! Oh, and, she also puts it around her dolls neck.....-_-...don't know what to think about that, haha.

The pictures with the bow are from a few days ago on my way to work, and, then when we got home and she was playing with the wristlet. The pictures of Abby in the hunting dress are from this morning. My uncle got the dress for Abigail this past Christmas. Uncle Kenny and my Papa Trick LOVE to hunt, and, he got a kick out of the dress. I decided that Abby would get to wear it today. I had no idea that it was a 3-6, for some reason, I thought it was a 12 month. So, she will only get to wear it a few times. Darn this child who's growing too fast :-( :-(. Her birthday is only 15 days away :-(.

Abigail has learned a new trick in one day. She now likes to climb in and out of her bumbo on her own. This usually results in her getting stuck in an odd position, but, that doesn't stop her. As soon as I help her out, she's trying to get right back in. I'm not too fond of how she likes to get out, though. She throws her body to one side and allows herself to fall out. She doesn't seem to mind, but, I can only imagine the possible injuries. Just a few minutes ago, she decided to bring her doll into the bumbo with her. They both got stuck in the same position, haha. Sorry that the picture isn't all that great, the lighting wasn't the greatest.

Surprise to those who didn't know, but, Christian and I are expecting another baby :-D! The tech said she thought it was a boy at my 12 week ultrasound, but, it's very iffy when they guess this early. I'll have the 20 week in about 8 weeks, and, we'll most likely know for sure :-).

Abigail has been cutting her top two canine teeth, and, while she has been her regular happy self, her diapers have been a horror. I've never experience so many blow outs and carpet scrubbings before, but, hey, that's what being a parent is about, right?

Her cruising is getting better, as well as craftier. It's great that she can get into her toys, but, not too great that she can get into the computer and other supplies. We are planning on getting a baby gate that extends across the room. That way, she can stay on the side with all of her toys, but, far far away from the kitchen and computer area. We are still in the process of baby proofing over there...whoops.

Yesterday, I was over at Jessica's to keep her company while her gutters were installed. Abigail saw Noah sipping out of a straw cup, and, decided that she wasnted to try it. She did pretty well with it, but, she still made a good mess on the floor. I may get a few in the future, but, I'd rather teach her to use a real cup.

Oh, and, as for the crate pictures. I promise I haven't been watching too many episodes of Scrubs. We indeed use it as a dog crate and NOT a baby cage. Abigail crawled in for the first time, so, I had to get a few pictures. I make sure to keep it locked now when Tupac isn't in it, haha. She still likes to try to get it.
