Spring

We have had a nice Spring here. We have some nice days to get out and explore. Abby currently really loves animals and feeding them. We have spent some late afternoons feeding the birds in our yard. 

She still loves all things Frozen. The sun glasses above are Frozen themed. And she never passes up a chance to watch it when I need to make dinner. 

We have six more weeks of school to get through and then it will be summer. That's only if it ever stops raining in Dallas. 

Frozen

The weather has been horrible here in the last month or so. I thought I would have gotten away with my snow days in tact but no. 

Spring break wasn't so springy. There were about two good days and one of which we went to the zoo.  Abby enjoyed it but not the birds. I think she was a bit traumatized.

We also went to the science museum in Frisco. It is small but great for her age. She got to roam around and try out all sorts of things. 

We are Frozen obsessed lately. If we aren't watching the movie, we want the soundtrack or clothes or dolls. 

We tried out the horses at LaHa and she wasn't so sure about them. 

iPhone Dump

We've been busy. School started up after the holidays and then we all got sick. Now it's the middle of February. 

She's been into everything. She also talks up a storm. She can say two word sentences and tell you many animal names and noises. 

She is a big fan of coloring. 

Daddy was out of town a few times lately and we took a selfie for him. 

There's been a few warm days lately where we got to get out in the sun. 

She bought me these slippers but she likes to steal them. 

Too much party.

Abby got to play with all of our old Barbie clothes this weekend. She enjoyed it but I probably enjoyed it more. Who knew 80s Barbie was bustier than 2015 Barbie? 

More outside play!

Valentine's Day party at school! It was her first time with a Capri Sun. I think she partied too hard because she was a grump later on that night. 

2014

Oh, what a year 2014 was for us. We had a too eventful year but I'll take a look back at the higher points. 

January- Abby learned to sit up on her own

February- Abby's baptism

March- spring break

April- baby on the move

May- warmer weather and pool time

June- vacation and poolside snacks

July- Abby turns one!

August- back to school in the big girl room

September- saying good-bye to my first baby

October- Halloween

November- Thanksgiving

December- Christmas with a kid old enough to almost get it

2014 was a big year for Abby overall. She slept through the night in February and moved from bottles to milk in a sippy cup in July then moved to one nap a day in August. It was a very tough year for G and I. The Hman is missed daily around here and I hate to think about how she doesn't even remember him. Some days the house is just too quiet. 

We are looking forward to good things in 2015. I'm always looking forward to the summer and pool weather. Will this be the year I can get as tan as my mother? Probably not but a girl can dream. 

Best wishes in 2015. 

Christmas time

What a crazy Christmas season we had. I don't know how we made it through it all but we did. 

Christmas Eve has always been lasagna dinner at home. We stayed in and played all day. She has been getting into my Tupperware cabinet lately. It keeps her busy while I try to do stuff so I don't mind too much. 

Christmas morning she was up early and it's not like she even knew what the day was. We were up before the sun. She was confused with why she couldn't stop and play with each thing she unwrapped. 

We went to Mesquite where she got lots of good stuff but neither of us took any pictures. Then on the road to Plano. She got a unicorn headband that she put on herself. 

Friday was spent cleaning and organizing new toys while daddy put them together. 

We got so many cool new things to play with, we don't know where to start in the morning. 

Before Christmas we went on a big adventure to the Dallas Aquarium. She loved the waterfall and the jaguar. She matched the sting rays with her polka dot pants. When the weather is more appealing we will have to make a trip to the zoo.
