Christmas eve

This is Christmas eve at my aunt's house, it was a full house. This is Abby always wanting to play with her cousins (who are all boys) toys.

Then she opened her toys from everyone and got her Rose Petal cottage and alot of other fun stuff. The necklace she is wear is a light up Cinderella, my brother always gets her the fun stuff.

Then she opened a makeup case, she is way to young for that so it has to go back!!!! But for a minute she thought she hit the lotto, LOL. All in

all it was very nice, esp since I have been in and

out of the hospital and they were wanting to keep

me for 2 more weeks. I was so sad thinking my

baby would not have her mommy home on Christmas, but I was lucky my regular dr was on dutie sunday afternoon and he said I had been in three days and I could go home. YAHHHH!!!!! So it was extra special to be able to be with everyone.

Our Christmas pictures

This is the picture we decided on for our Christmas card. But I just loved the other one because Abby just loves her daddy so much she can't take her eyes off him!!!

Pictures with Santa

Well this is what we woke up to sunday morning, snow on the ground it was 32. So we got ready to go get Abby's pictures done with Santa at South Coast. The next picture is of Abby's watching the Wiggles in the car with her headset, how cute is she!! The next picture is of her dressed at my aunts house and ready to go, she looked beautiful. Abe had to take her on the horses about 7 times while my family and I waited in line. Then finally the pictures with Santa, she did not smile once but hey she did not cry this time so that is better then last year!! All in all we had a great day and she loves Santa, just at a distance, LOL.

Our visit with Evie & Ashlyn

So here we are at Sisley's eating lunch with Evie's father Marty, grnadmother Claire, me, Ashlyn, Abby and Abe is taking the picture. I had never been to this place and it was soooo good. The next picture is Ashlyn feeding Abby whipcream from her yummy treat. The next picture is Abe, Abby and Ashlyn.

So these are the pictures of auntie Evie and familys gift to Abby, a tea table for her twin dolls. Her and Ashlyn played with that all weekend. The next picture is Abby with her best buddie Ashlyn, she loves her and followed her everywhere, so cute. The last picture is of Abby opening her fun table with auntie Evie and Ashlyn.

We had a great weekend, I can't wait till we can do it more!!!!

Babies Shower

Well I still can't get my pics in order, oh well. I will try and explain them each. 1st is Jennifer and I after opening all the gifts, relaxing. 2nd is how it went the whole time, Abby was grumpy so she wanted only me to hold her. 3rd me surrounded by gifts. 4th Abby and Taylor running around in the backyard, they like to play together. 5th my mothers best friend Valerie and my mom. 6th and last is me with the cake and food, yummy!!! I look as big as a house, I am starting my 7th month and I am the same weight I was when I gave birth to Abby, WOW. I had a great day and I'm very thankful to have such great friends and family to share this with. I also wanted to say something about a women I wish more then anything could have shared this day with me and that is Barbara Asbell (Evies mother) she was my second mom and since her passing on this day Nov 3rd I have missed her dearly. She was such a loving part of my upbringing and she is very missed!!!!

Halloween

Well I took Abby to my brothers for Halloween and Abe met us there to trick or treat. She was Sleeping Beauty, the costume was a little big but worked out. Matthew is usually scared and does not go trick or treating but when he found out Abby was going he wanted to go. We went up the block just a little but Abby was so cute saying "trick or treat" and then thank you each time without me telling her. I am glad I went although I have a URI, I loved seeing her have such fun!!
