Getting Big

Abby is certainly getting bigger. Now that she has her first tooth coming through she got to practice a new bedtime habit - brushing her tooth before she can go to bed. She LOVED it! She kept opening her mouth after Steve thought he was done brushing her teeth so he could do it again. We hope her love of brushing her teeth will continue throughout her lifetime.We took Abby on an adventure to Canada yesterday - not that driving about 2 miles to the mall on the other side of the Saint Mary's River should qualify as an adventure, but we were in a foreign country, so it counts. We decided to do a little Christmas shopping since our dollar was worth $1.19 in Canada, but all we came home with was a metal cheese grater to replace our metal/plastic hybrid that broke on Monday. Not the most exciting trip, or the most productive, but at least we had no waiting at customs on either side of the bridge. We'll just have to keep thinking about Christmas presents for Abby's family...

Tomorrow is Abby's last set of shots for a while, we hope. It is never fun, but she has been pretty good afterward each time, so I'm not too worried. We'll have to see how big our girl has grown in the last few months. She feels like a 30 pound bag of dog food when I am carrying her around, but I'm sure she doesn't weigh quite that much. Happy Wednesday!

Brushy, Brushy, Brushy, keep that toothy clean. I love hearing all about your escapades! You are a family, and how I appreciate the good family traditions you have begun. Abby is a LUCKY, BLESSED little gal to have the both of you.
God Bless GG

Abby, Kathi says, you look like a librarian, just like Kelly Smo. Bet you could do that, you've read lots of books. GG
