I love my puppies!

Okay....my dilema. I LOVE my dogs, but HATE HATE HATE the hair, dust and dander they bring into my house. I have to vaccum daily now that we have this mobile child and NEED to dust daily but really don't (bad stay at home Mom....I know). BUT, my husband and child have outnumbered me and are giving the dogs more days to laze indoors. When they are outside, Abby Kate immediately goes to the door and camps there until I let them in....manipulative little gal no? 

More Horsy Time!

 

Go Horsy!

This is Abby Kate's new favorite toy. She crawls back to her room and pulls herself up and today, she was trying to throw her leg over its back. I am NOT kidding. But what can I say, this child knows style. Who else rides and pink horse? 

And more....

 

Smart Daddy

While trying to fix dinner, I look over and see Bobby entertaining Abby Kate. She LOVES the water and was SOAKED by the time this activity was over! 

And even more....

Our Mischeivous Child

 

A southern wedding

We had the honor of both being in the wedding of two precious K-Life students the weekend before we left for Flordia. We had SUCH a wonderful time. The reception was truly one of the most beautiful parties I have ever attended. It was outside on a balmy summer night. We LOVED it!

Pulling up

Now that we have her crawling every where, she is now pulling up on everything. This is the first time she pulled up on an inanimate object.

My First Ride

This was Abby Kate's first ride...Spaceship Earth at Epcot. She loved the lights! 

Disney World!

We just returned from a magical (but hot) 8 day trip to Orlando! We truly had a wonderful time. We knew this was to young for Abby Kate to really enjoy and remember but we had so much fun!  

Surprise!

Aunt Lynn don't kill me! This was the only picture of you two I took and because of that stupid delay on my camera, you both look so surprised. I actually am cracking up at this though. I really HAVE to save up and get one of those digital Canon Rebels. AK kept reaching for Aunt Lynn the entire day. She shares our passion for reading (and has supplied our habit by buying HUNDREDS of childrens books for AK....my most favorite present!) and is SO fun!

Having Fun with Nannie

 

Another Fun Day at the Aquarium

We got to go to the aquarium again last Friday with Aunt Lynn, Uncle Joe, Nannie and Grumpies and had SO much fun! This is Abby Kate and our Uncle Joe! AK got quite spoiled by all the attention! 

The Stare Down

Abby Kate is in love with our dogs. Belle (pictured) is still a bit unsure of her but Callie daily kisses her and Abby Kate squeals in delight. I just laugh because she can stay entertained for long periods of time just watching the dogs. 

UH OH!

Well....it is finally time to start putting up the side of the crib! I went in yesterday afternoon (after her 3 hour nap!!!!) and she was standing on the side. Before she has only pulled herself up on the bumper pads but she made it to the wood this time!
