PLAY-DOH!

Abby and I visited my sister Nicole and her kids today. Nicole pulled out some Play-Doh and let Abby dig in. She thought it was neat. She didn't do much with it. That's to be expected though. She is only one. She tried to eat it and spit it out immediately because of the nasty taste. She didn't attempt that again. Nicole said that letting kids play with Play-Doh helps them develop there writing skills. So why not. Its not that hard to clean up.




My parents also came up this weekend to see us. This is a picture of Abby just chilling with my Dad. She sat there for a while like this. She was content with just sitting there next to my Dad. Rob and I thought that this was strange because she wont even sit like this with us. The only reason she would is if she was tired and she was not tired at this time. So apparently she is OK with my Dad. There are not many people that she is OK with.


OH and P.S. I got some pictures taken of Abby at JCPenny. She was a stinker and only cracked a smile in one picture. They will be sending me a link for you all to see them if you want to. I will email it to you when they give it to me. They turned out cute even though she would not smile.

Just some photos and a video of Abby

These are pictures of Abby going to church on Sunday. She insists on caring this like a purse and she insists on walking to the car instead of being carried. Which is fine.



This is an empty milk carton that Abby carried around for a while. She started to bang me in the head with it and it got taken away. She as not very happy. Oh P.S. she is wearing the dress she got for Christmas. She had a huge growth spurt and can fit into both of the dresses now. They are way cute on her too.





Abby has this new fascination with putting on shoes and taking them off. She is really close to being able to do it herself. This is a picture of her undoing her shoe. She at least three times a day will grab a shoe and have me put the shoe on for her. She will mismatch them and even put shoes on over her pajamas that have the feet in them (sleeper pajamas). She is a funny kid.

I took a personality test. This was my results. I thought it was interesting.

A brake from the snow. Yeah!

It was finally warm enough and not snowing to go outside with Abby. We usually take a little walk to the mail box, but today Abby played outside. She had so much fun. She likes walking through the snow and walking up and down the sidewalk. She also liked to sit on the door step. While we were outside one of the people who lives just down from us kind of near were Matt and Amy use to live, came walking out of his back yard. Abby noticed and started waving and saying hi. Not load enough for him to hear. Next thing I new she was running towards the guy saying hi. He never noticed but I did get a video of her standing staring in his direction saying hi and waving. In the video she started to yell to. It was funny at the time.

Also there was a baptism in the Spanish Branch on Sunday. This makes 5 total baptisms sense we started this calling. It's been a neat experience honestly, hard but neat. Here is the picture of them. There names are Sarah and Ester. Sarah is about my age. She can speak English. Her mom can only speak Spanish.It was a great baptism and we are glad to have them in the branch now. Well that is all the news here. Enjoy the pictures and the video of Abby.

Too much snow! We had to be creative.

I've been going crazy cooped up in the house. It snowed here every day last week and is continuing to do the same this week. Abby has been bored playing with the same old same old. So I went outside and grabbed her picnic table, brought it in and cleaned it up. Abby loved it. She wanted to sit on it before it was even cleaned off. I should have taken a picture of it with all of the snow piled on top. There was like 2 feet . OK so not that much but it was a lot I cleaned all the snow off and sterilized it with sanitizing wipes. Then I let it dry for a while. Now Abby is playing with it and is loving it.
When I first brought it in and had it partially cleaned she kept pushing me out of the way so that she could sit at it. She can climb in and out all by herself. She sits so perfectly at it. So I have been making good use of it the last couple of days. She draws on it. plays with her toys at it. It has even become a jungle jim, which is not safe in any way, but she is having fun so I just watch her closely. That is our story with the picnic table. Dave and Kathleen thanks for the table.
