O Yes She Did!



This afternoon I was in the kitchen making Abby's lunch and she was playing in the living room. As a new mom I have come to recognize when it's too quiet. Sure enough, I look over to see what trouble she has gotten into. As you can see she was having a good time. All I could do was laugh. It was so funny to watch her doing this. She was truly fascinated with pulling the wipes out of the box. Of course, I had literally just refilled the box so there were plenty in there...go figure!
Yesterday we went to the pumpkin patch with six other friends. It was so fun. I am so grateful to have stay at home mom friends, I can't imagine trying to do this on my own. The kids loved seeing the animals and it was a really nice day out. Here are a couple of pictures from the pumpkin patch...

Almost a year

I thought I would throw in some cute pictures to follow the last post. Abby is almost a year now,I can't believe how fast time goes. She is doing great and is keeping us very busy. She has her first cold and that has been a little rough. On the bright side of the cold, she has become the best little snuggler and I love it! Here are some pictures of her and her boyfriends and her and the dog.







Dave and I are loving every moment with her, watching her learn and explore her world. I love how much confidence she has in herself. She sees the world in a way that we can't, and I love that she is always excited when we go somewhere. We are celebrating her first birthday on the 30th and I am keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn't rain! On top of her birthday we are looking forward to our anniversary and my birthday. Gotta love October!

So Gross!!!

So Dave is working late and I am preparing a pot-roast for dinner tomorrow...I am so domesticated! Anyways, I digress...so I go to throw something in the trash and WHOA(which is not the actual words that came out but we don't need to go there).I think the picture speaks for itself...




It's HUGE!!! Seriously, I was shaking at the sight of this thing. The fact that this is on our floor where my baby plays...ewwww. So, I do what any courageous mom does. I pulled out the simple green and sprayed the heck out it. Then, I bravely placed a glass over it and will wait for Dave to take care of it when he gets home.
