Sunday snapshot: Abby

Abby is 5 years old, going on 13. She's silly, funny, and starting to be a little sassy.

She is a good mix of girl, and tomboy. I only say girl because she is very emotional and dramatic. Other than that, she's not that girly.

She is constantly saying she has no one to play with. (even though she has 3 siblings.) It confirms to me that filling that gap between her and Emily (through adoption) would be a really good idea!!

She LOVES school, and loves to read; Junie B Jones is her favorite, and she reads it with all the attitude written for Junie B, which I think is very funny.

She also likes puppies, and she is starting to enjoy American Girls.

She says she loves to play soccer but is quite possibly the least aggressive soccer player that my husband and I have ever seen. It's painful for us to watch. She's totally, "if the ball comes TO me, I'll kick it, but otherwise, you go ahead..." :)

She's generally a very sweet little girl. She is kind hearted and a very good friend to others.

baby glasses

My baby had to get glasses a couple of weeks ago.

Coincidentally, they're broken right now and in the shop getting fixed. Not good, since she was JUST getting used to wearing them and now we'll have to go back through that learning curve. 

anyways, she looks pretty cute in them. hopefully she'll come around and get better about wearing them so her eyes can be corrected and she'll outgrow needing them.....

halloween 2009

So, we had a Halloween Party this year. Costumes for all, adults included. It was a ton of fun and an absolute riot to see how people costumed themselves. We hope to make this an annual thing, so now we have a year to be thinking about what to do next! Check this out!
