Christmas Day

We spent Christmas Day with Brent's Family. Abby definitely has the present opening down. She had a good time.

A New Doll

Abby will kiss and rock her dolls now. It's really sweet.
Getting Down to Business
Brent's sister gave her a cute lamb pillow. She likes to roll around on it.

Santa Claus Came to Town

Santa Claus was a hit! Abby loves pushing her grocery cart that Santa brought. "Hmmm. Look at this funny guy!" Abby makes a funny noise when she is checking something out now. It is a high pitched "Hmmm."

Chloe gets in on the action.


Back to the grocery shopping.

Abby eats some of the food she bought at the store. Yes, Santa remembered play food for the cart.

She chews on some new legos too. They passed her taste test.


I took this picture when she first came in the room. She reacted more than we thought she would.

White Christmas

We had Christmas with my family on Christmas Eve. I was not good about taking pics that night, but here are a few. While we were at church, the roads froze. It had been snowing for awhile, but not enough to be dangerous. We decided to spend the night with Nonnie and Pops after seeing cars sliding around and stuck on the way home. As you can see, Abby still dislikes the snow. I will post pics of her all dressed up later. Stay tuned.
She got a cupcake ornament for her tree.
Her big Baby Einstein book is a favorite!




Christmas with the White Family

Our next Christmas get together was on Christmas Eve Eve with my Mom's family. Abby had fun opening her presents.
The night was complete after a bath in the sink.


Who wants to play with a new tug boat that makes sounds when there is a Gatorade bottle nearby?




Abby loved her Elmo book and pony from Momo.

My brother gave her a princess outfit. I guess it overwhelmed her. I'm thrilled. I got a theme and an outfit for her 2nd birthday party!

Abby is ready to tailgate next year with her own little Aggie chair.

Funny Face
"Can I play?"

Nothing like being pushed around fast in a plastic tub. Pops got a lot of exercise.

Christmas in Pittsburg

Our first Christmas celebration was with my dad's side of the family in East Texas. Abby slept through opening all the presents. She was tuckered out from the drive. She no longer sleeps on trips. Thank goodness they make dvd players for cars! We are spoiled!

Let it Snow!

"What is this?" Yesterday morning it snowed! We ran outside for some quick pics soon after it started for fear that it would stop. It actually snowed for about an hour. Abby went for a quick ride in her wagon and then we headed inside. It was cold!
She didn't care about the snow. She just liked the ride. It is snowing in this picture. The flakes were just small.

Thanksgiving

We went to Pittsburg last Saturday for Thanksgiving with the Matkin family. Abby announced that she will be a big sister. She has worn this shirt each time we told someone and opened it at her birthday party as an announcement. It has been fun! Garrett and Abby discuss who will sit in the booster seat. Eating Dinner
Bubba's got me.
A Walk in the Woods


Who knew 100 plastic balls could be so entertaining?

Abby spends a lot of time in this contraption. She loves to fall back in the balls and just roll around and laugh. It's funny! She hung over the edge like this for about 5 minutes. I guess it is her new resting spot.

Christmas Shopping

This little shopper had some good luck at Macy's.

Gig'em Aggies!

We went to the A&M game last weekend in College Station. It was Abby's first trip there. We had a great time. It was cold and rainy most of the day so we spent part of our time in Rudder. Abby had fun crawling all over the place. Brent's corps buddy gave Abby this sweater when she was born. I couldn't wait for her to wear it.

She was mesmorized by March In. She did not miss a beat!
All bundled up!
