New Tricks

Abby learned a new trick last night - she can do the official touchdown signal. She had lots and lots of encouragement from her dad. I tried to capture her new signal with the camera this morning, but she was too fast for me.

She is also getting really good at sitting in chairs. She has a Pooh Bear camp chair and a Tigger inflatable chair that both get lots of use. She also tries to sit in her little people chairs sometimes, but of course that never works out so well.

Abby and I are going to head off shortly to a baby shower. We are really glad that there are lots and lots of babies and children in our church. It is nice to know she will have lots of children to play with as she gets older.

Only 3 days until we pack up and head south. Steve and I are looking forward to a week away. He really needs a few days off work and I need a few days of adult interaction.

Cool Tricks

Abby learned how to use a drinking fountain on our trip to Florida - she thought it was really fun. Abby is back into good girl mode today. She must be feeling better. She also got what she thought was the best present ever today - my old cell phone. Steve and I have new phones, so we let her play with one of the old ones. She really thought she was getting away with some great trickery when she got to hold the phone on the whole car ride back from the Alltel shop.

We are still looking for that new car - today Abby and I went to talk to the Jeep dealer. We are going to do some more investigating and hopefully will have a decision (and a new car) soon. And now... back to shoveling out the driveway, dealing with the mail, and cleaning up all of the things we brought in and dumped on the dining room table.
