Abby can clap! its so cute.

Abby can clap now. She does it all the time. This is one video of her clapping. She claps at the end. I will try to get some more videos of her clapping. Its hard because as soon as I pull the camera out she wants to play with it, so she gets distracted. She also sleeps pretty much through the night. I couldn't take it anymore so I had to just let her cry it out. The last couple of nights she woke up and cried for only a short period of time. Then went back to sleep. It makes my life so much easier. I can get 8 hours of sleep now.

She can stand up on her own now. I only have one video of her trying to. Its hard to get her to when you are near her because she just reaches out for you and falls over. She stood Yesterday for a while. She was playing with a toy, standing up next to the coffee table but not leaning on to it or holding on.
She loves to play with the control the the T.V. Its not too good, because she changes the channel while you are watching it. We usually hide it. This is a picture of Abby after she had turned off the T.V. as you can see it is off in the back ground. Rob now has competition for the remote.

As for Rob and I:
Rob has been working late for about 2 weeks now. They have an ABC TV show that they are working on. The deadline was suppose to be last Friday but that didn't happen, even with them working late nights. So this week he is working late again. Its OK though this project is really good for the company. Last night Rob didn't even get to see Abby awake. He didn't get home until 9:00pm Abby went to sleep at 8:15pm I tried to keep her awake but she was so cranky.
As for me, I am still taking that watercolor painting class. Its a lot of fun. I practice when ever Abby takes her naps. I am getting better at it. I am not to the point that I feel like I could make a good painting though, but I am getting better at the techniques. Supposedly this week in class we are suppose to paint a still life painting. I think she said it was going to be an apple, I am not sure. we will see how it turns out. Water color is hard. I painted in high school with acrylic paints and I like them a lot better. But I thought that I would try something new. A lot of practice should help. You cant become good at something with out lots of practice. So I practice, practice, practice. I should say as much as I can with Abby.
