Snow Day

We were blessed with 2 good snows in January and February. Abbie and I enjoyed our days at home! Abbie was excited to go play in the snow. She loved hitting the pushes and plants to make the snow fall off.

Now if we could just get her mittens to stay on.

Her favorite part of the snow was being able to go play on her playground. She liked going down the slide and landing in the snow.

Superbowl Party

We hosted a college age Superbowl Party at our house. Abbie was decked out in all of her Superbowl gear. Too bad bedtime came before the end of the game. I am not sure she watched much of the game but she enjoyed hanging out with our guests.

One of the girls brought 3-D glasses for the half time show. The girls were all sitting in front of the TV waiting for the half time commerical. On her own, Abbie went into her bedroom found her sunglasses, put them on, and then came and sat down with the girls. We got a great pic. of everyone with their glasses on.

And yes, the Steelers won so Dad was happy. Although it was fun watching him during the 4th quarter when the Steelers almost gave the game away.

Christmas Break

I can not believe there is only one more day of Christmas Break. I am not ready to go back to school. Christmas was great. We spent Christmas morning at our house opening presents and eating breakfast together. It was nice to just relax together with the family. Abbie enjoyed her new toys and hanging out with mom and dad.






At noon we left to spend a week in NJ with my family. It was nice to have us all together for a week. It was a packed house with all 8 us in in 4 bedrooms and sharing 2 bathrooms. It was nice just relaxing and hanging out with the fam!

On Monday, Steve and I took Abbie to Kid Junction. It was great. We only had to pay for Abbie and there was barely anyone there. There was a big indoor playground and 6 dramatic theme rooms: Post office, Pizza shop, grocery story, Vet Clinic, Kids gym, Theater. Abbie loved the grocery store and the pizza shop.





On Tuesday, I took Abbie to the Discovery Museum in NJ. It was really neat but crowded. We spent most of our time in the Toddler room. Abbie loved climbing the stairs to go down the slide. Also, she really liked the gigantic light bright.

First Snow

This blog is a couple of weeks late but considering it is Christmas time I thought I was doing pretty good.
Over Thanksgiving we were up visiting Steve's family. They got a pretty good snow while we were out there and Abbie got her first chance to play in the snow. She proved she was her mother's daughter when she really hated being out in the snow and cold. She also hated the layers of clothes to go out in the snow. She was very quick and then wanted right back inside. However we did get some really cute pictures for the 10 minutes we were outside.

Halloween

Last night we took Abbie trick or treating for the first time.

Abbie was dressed up like a dog. Thanks to my mom for the cute costume.

She loved walking down the street holding mom and dad's hand.

We stopped at 8 or 9 houses. She liked holding her pumpkin and

playing with the candy. We let her eat a lollipop, but after 5 or 6 licks she

was done with that. She did like the hersey's candy bar she shared with her mom and

dad. I guess she's a chocolate lover like her mom.

Pumpkin Painting

This week Abbie and I painted a pumpkin for Halloween.

Abbie loved getting her hands in the paint and spreading it all over the pumpkin.

The pumpkin turned out great and Abbie loves trying to pick it up and carry it around the house.

Here are 2 great pictures of her with her pumpkin!

My Silly Girl

The other night Abbie and I were hanging out in the family room.
She was in a really silly mood. Here's a great video her in a silly mood.

She did this like 15 times in a row!

Hope it made you smile and brighten your day!
