Pooh Bear

This evening Abby and I were playing in the floor of her room. About 7:00 Jason and I have to get creative to get her to stay awake later. Lately we have been giving her more baths because she absolutely loves her bath time. This evening she was playing with all her little pooh character animals. She tries to hold all of them at the same time, but her little arms just aren't big enough. She will hold one of them and them mush it into her mouth. I will pick up one of them and shake it, she will drop everything she has in her hand and want the one that her mommy has and push it straight into her mouth. She is so cute trying to hold each of these in her hands all at one.

6 month pictures

We got Abigail's 6 month old pictures made today. She was such a trooper! We took a change of clothes so we knew we would be there probably an hour. They took a lot of great pictures of her and she was full of smiles the whole time!

Dear Abigail,

Dear Abigail,


I think it is important for you to know that you have learned how to do the John Wall dance. It was by complete accident, but you will appreciate this someday with the true blue fan that you already are. You are truly the happiest baby I have ever seen. You are always smiling, laughing, and just being Abby.

Your grandma and poppa got you a penguin mini that wobbles, and you are so scared of it. Not quite sure what it is about that penguin but you don’t like him at all. We have put him in the closet for the time being.

You are sitting up by yourself now. I love it! Mainly because we have a new pose to take precious pictures of you. You are getting so big. I can’t believe that you are ½ today! Happy Birthday! One of mommy’s work friends got you a princess cupcake from gigi’s. You loved the icing. We didn’t let you have a whole lot of it, but you loved what we gave you of it.

I love you precious child. You are so beautiful inside and out!

Mommy :)

Dear Abigail,

Dear Abigail.


Merry Christmas! We woke up today and saw that Santa had come to visit you! Of course we knew that you were on Santa's good list. In our eyes you are just perfect. The greatest gift of all. You sat in your bumbo chair and helped mommy open presents. You got: Holiday Barbie, Snow White DVD, Shape sorter, Wagon and a Micky Mouse Doll. You loved everything you but, but most of all liked playing with the ribbon it was packaged in. Your Micky Mouse doll i think was your favorite, it went straight for your mouth and you started chewing on it's nose.

You were an Angel in the Christmas play at church this past Sunday. Gabriel carried you in. You wore a white onesie that had a white tutu attached to it, and I purchased some angel wings and a halo for you to wear. You looked beautiful. You looked like a little angel. I don't think that you needed to wear an angel outfit to look like an angel, you had that one covered.

You have made this Christmas holiday just wonderful. We told you all about Jesus and how Christmas was his birthday. I never want you to get wrapped up in the gifts of Christmas, we always want you know the true meaning of the season. I love you Abigal, and I love this extra time off of work to get to spend everyday with you.

Momma (:

Dear Abigail,

My precious child,


We took you to your four month appointment today; however you were 4 ½ months old. You are 26 inches long and 15 lbs and 7.5 ounces. 93% in length and 79% in weight. I think you are going to be tall like your daddy. You are so much like your daddy; you first off are a spitting image of him. There will never be a doubt by anyone who your daddy is!

We had the most amazing thanksgiving. We bought you a shirt that says babies 1st thanksgiving and a friend bought you one that said thankful for mommy. I know you are thankful for your mommy you show me by your hugs and sweet smiles and giggles that you give me.

Your favorite toys right now include your links, your little cow doll, and of course, how could we forget buttercup. Buttercup goes with us everywhere that we go. This is just a soft cushion doll that your cousin got you when they came to visit. We are getting ready to celebrate our first Christmas! You make the holidays so much fun. I bought you a babies first Christmas outfit the other day and can’t wait for you to wear it. I have told you that next year we will get you one that says babies 2nd Christmas if they make those.

I have also started making you hairbows, and you absolutely love to wear them. I’m so surprised that you leave them on but you do, and you are oh so cute. I have about 1000 pictures to prove how cute you are. You have one for each outfit!

I love you more everyday Abbyroo. I just started back to work and it is so hard not to be with you at home. I call the daycare 2-3 times a day to check on you and the teacher every time just talks about what a good baby you are. We hung pictures in your crib there, and of course you take your special buttercup doll and blankie. The highlight of my day is picking you up. I love you so much.

Love Mommy :-* :-*

Dear Abigail,

Wow I know that I tell you this all the time, but time sure does fly. You are starting to change all over Abigail. You are growing a little bit of hair, and you are so animated in your expressions. I tell your daddy that you are a Wildcat fan; you seem like to watch football on TV some.


I bought you the cutest little while toboggan this week and we put it on you and it just made your face look so full and sweet. I started calling you chubba cheeks. I think you like your new nick name, although Abbyroo has stuck around this far you like it too.

We had a wonderful thanksgiving. You wore a shirt that said you were thankful for Mommy. Abigail I am most thankful for you.

I have been back to work for 2 weeks now, and it has been so hard not being with you all day long. We like your class at daycare and Ms. Melissa takes very good care of you. We have all your favorite toys with you there, a pictures book that we made for you, hung pictures in your crib, we take your own special sheet and blanket. I think you have pretty much been asleep every time that I pick you up. They talk about what a good baby you are. Of course mommy and daddy think you are just perfect.

I love you Abbyroo!

Momma

Dear Abigail

Abbyroo,


You are cute as a button. You have a shirt to prove it too! This has been a fun filled month for you. You spent your 1st Sunday in the nursery with Kathy. I keep telling you that you and Kathy go way back. You helped your daddy celebrate his birthday with a big ole cookie cake. I wish that you had been able to eat some of it. We got it designed with UK football on it.

Your daddy isn’t a sportsaholic but he will sit down and enjoy a good football came. He especially likes them with his little girl sitting on his knee.

We celebrated your first Halloween this evening. We dressed you up as a frog and you were absolutely the cutest frog we had ever seen. Today you wore a shirt that said you were so cute it was scary. I have to agree, you are so cute, and all the people we come into contact with have to agree. People are always telling us how cute you are, what a pretty baby you were. We didn’t go trick or treating around the neighborhood, we stayed at the house and passed out candy. You loved getting up and going to the door and giving out candy.

Your growing so much it is crazy. I can’t believe how much you have grown in the past month. Your getting to big for the sling but you sure enjoy mama’s hip.

You are starting to learn how to get your way. You have made this sweet little pucker lip and it just melts my heart. You are so young, yet you already have me and your daddy both wrapped around your little fingers.

We also gave you your first guitar and piano lesson this month. You love sitting on mama’s lap while we are practicing and playing the piano. You are such a big girl and you seem to absolutely love music. We play music sometimes and your face just lights up. You especially like to sit in your bumbo and watch your daddy play his guitar.

We went up to your daddy’s work the other day to take some pictures of you in your Halloween outfits and your sweet hair bow that I made you. Have I ever told you how cute you were?

Also a new nickname that I gave you was “goof troop”. You can be down right goofy little girl. You are so special. We love every ounce of you. Just keep being you precious Abigail. I read you this letter while you were sitting in my lap; you looked over at me and smiled.

Love you!

Mommy :-)

Dear Abby,

Abigail today was a very special day for you. Your daddy and I had you dedicated. We made promises to God before the church to teach you about Jesus, so you can come to know him. Your daddy and I will pray for you every day that one day you come to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, and accept him as your Lord and Savior. I love you baby girl


Momma (:

Dear Abigail,

Sweet Abbyrooroo,


You are all smiles. You are the most delightful baby that I have ever seen and I am not just saying that because I’m your mommy. You are full of smiles. All we have to do is look at you and say, “awwww” and your face just lights up. I hope it’s always this easy to make you happy. You are two months old today! It is so hard to believe that you are two months old. I am just trying to soak up every moment with you and slow down the time if that is somehow possible.

We took you to the peds today and you are 23.25 inches long and 11 lbs 2.4 ounces. You are in the 78% for length and 58% for weight for your age. We think you are just perfect. You are just the most precious little thing. We have been able to get out of the house some lately and meet some of my work friends from the office. They call to have lunch with me, but I know that they just want to see you. You love to go out of the house. I think you will be a child that will much prefer to be outside than playing indoors.

You love your little feet rattles. They are like socks and we put them on your feet and you will just kick your feet so that you can hear the noise on the rattle. We sit on the couch and I will put the footrest out and have you face me resting on my legs and you will sit there and smile ear to ear. I try and give you really fast kisses and you just love it and have to show us your gummy smile.

You like to make clicking noises with your tongue. We will make 2-3 clicks and you will try your hardest to make those noises back to us. You are a fast learning because you have almost gotten this down pat. You are the sweetest thing I have ever seen. This evening while I am tying this you are laying beside me on the couch. Your daddy is here with us too and you are napping. Your little mouth will move like you are sucking on your bottle. You will move your mouth 10-12 times, and then stop. There you go again, I think you are dreaming about formula. I love you Abby, I hope you are having sweet dreams and probably swimming in a pool of milk.

Love you.

Mommy :-)

Dear Abigail,

Dear Abigail,


Today I couldn’t put you down. You are growing to fast, and I just want to soak every moment up with you. I held you during your nap earlier today and you just made the sweetest sleep noises I have ever heard. My mom tells me not to hold you to much because I will spoil you, but I can’t help it. I don’t want to put your down, I don’t want to blink, I just want you to stay tee tiny forever. You are more precious today than ever. I love you baby girl!

Your Momma (:
