Abbie-isms

Doesn't this picture just crack you up?????????

So since I posted last, I realized there are SO many more things Abbie is doing, and that you were probably dying to know about all of them, so here is another list:

- She says "I'm sorry" all the time now. If she hurts herself, or if Brandy steps on her toe or anything like that, she says it. It is very cute.

- She gives you five, then says up high, lifts her hand, then down low, and lowers it. No clue where she learned this!

- She likes to flip the light switches and says up, down when she does it.

- Oh, this one is funny. I think I mentioned before that she talks in the 3rd person a lot. So she was saying "I love you Abbie" there for a while. Well now, she says "I love you Elmo" when she hugs Wes or I. So it's like she is saying it to us, but Elmo is at the end.

- Brace yourselves for this one...She counted to ten this morning! I heard her in her room, and she was reading a book and there she went. She'd probably never do it when I asked her, but I heard her count to 6 yesterday, and this morning it was ten!

- Now when she gets the cell phone, she holds it to her ear, and says Hello, Hey! just like we do when we answer the phone.

I seriously can't believe the things she picks up on. She is like a little sponge!

I am going on a month and a half of being home with her, and I have to say it was a little hard getting adjusted but I think I am getting there! I am enjoying it much more now that I feel like we have a little routine going. Still job hunting. No bites yet, so we will see. I am taking her to Pam's once a week though, which is nice because it gives me a little break and gives her a chance to interact with other kids and not forget Pam!

I swear I take less pictures of her now that I am at home, but seriously, I cannot get her to sit still! I literally have to chase her to get her picture nowadays. Here are a few recent ones- she rode on the lawnmower yesterday w/ Wes and I have not seen her so giddy in a long time. She loved it!
