An Abigail Update

Besides filling my days with joy and laughter, Abigail also fills my days with her helping hands (especially when cooking or baking), conversations, songs, silliness, climbing anything and everything, playing, pretend, mothering her babies (which are usually named Maren after my best friend's Jamie's little girl), doing her make up, putting coupons in her purse, cleaning and helping me clean, and basically pure joy. She has her moments, but 98% of the time, Abigail is happy and delightful. Her conversations have been such fun lately as we actually talk about our days and her favorite parts. She knows what treats she can get at each store and she knows right where Michaels is, as well as Hobby Lobby (a craft store), and the Pet Store.


Her latest lines include: "One more minute", "I be right back", "Abigail do it", "Don't say that" (if we ask or tell her to do something she doesn't think is a good idea), and our favorite, "I lub you".

This is a video taken in her before bedtime silliness....just spinning and twirling.

And...this is probably her 2nd, if not, 3rd outfit for the day.

And, Abigail saying her name....in 2 parts:

At the end of both of these videos she is saying, "I see it"--she LOVES to see herself in pictures and on video.

Countdown

The countdown for this baby princess to make her appearance is on. We are officially scheduled for surgery on November 12th at 12:00pm.....so everyday we are a bit closer and everyday I am reminded of how much is still on my to-do list.


She is a mover and a shaker. We can literally see her moving around in my tummy...it is hilarious and I find it very comforting to know that all must be well in her cramped living space.


This is me and my belly at 35 weeks.

Mostly we are excited to meet her.
