Cousin Kourtney

This is Abby Kate's cousin Kourtney. She and Aunt Audreia came to play with us this week. Abby Kate is absolutely in love with both of them. 

More Summer pictures!

This is my favorite face she makes! Makes me want to kiss her face off! 

Summer fun!

Well...it is offical. Abby Kate LOVES the outdoors. Swimming, going on walks, playing outside...it all brings her such pleasure! We were at Sweetie and Poppy's in this picture and we put wheels on her walker and off she went! She LOVED moving. She kept following Sweetie as she watered flowers and would find puddles of water and plant herself there. So fun! 

More please!

 

6 months!

Though this is a little delayed, Abby Kate turned 6 months on June 7th! She weighs 17.5 lbs and is 26.5 inches long (which means she has outgrown her carseat!). She is sitting up unassisted and is rolling over all the time. She is "crawling" which means actually moving in her crib but just rocking when she is on the ground. She is eating solids 3 times a day and is only taking 4 bottles a day. She is cutting teeth like a champ, though you can tell she is quite uncomfortable. Yesterday she ate her first meal in her highchair. You could tell she quite liked the throne but was not crazy about food due to the spoon hitting her sore teeth. She has finally found her "lovie" which is her snuggle bunny we introduced you to a few pictures ago. Last night she woke up and started chatting, I went in, put snuggle bunny under her arm, and she instantly fell back to sleep. Amazing. Time truly has FLOWN! I cannot believe she has been in our lives for half a year. I cannot imagine loving anyone more.... 

and more....

 

more crawling

 

Movin'

All in one day, we got our 6 month shots, cut a tooth and actually started moving when she got up on her hands and knees. Wow, she put in a full day. That is after keeping me up most the night last night....I hope because of the impending teeth. Pray it is better tonight...please.
