Happy Independence Day!

Melinda came over to drop off something and gave Abigail this yummy treat. I thought she looked cute enjoying it.

She's accessorized and has something to say!

The Snow White Song

2008-03-02T16:52:00.000-08:00

Abigail has watched the movie and heard me sing the song to her countless times. A couple of weeks ago, she started singing with me. Last night I finally managed to make a video. Here she sings almost the entire song.

Sunny day and skies of blue

Abigail and I went down to Cerritos today to visit Annie and her twins. Afterwards we spent some time playing in the park.

Chris is hoping Abigail will be a soccer star. Maybe... as long as she doesn't get distracted by the dandelions!

Or maybe a future American Idol?

This is a slightly older video of Abigail reading Put Me In The Zoo back in November.

dancing at California Adventure Park

2007-11-30T13:16:00.000-08:00

I love days off and being a Disneyland annual passholder.
We spent several hours at Disneyland with Carlene and McKinley yesterday. The girls had so much fun together. We played in Goofy's yard, visited the Princess Fantasy Faire, colored with Chip, took pictures with Santa, then went to California Adventure where we ate ice cream sundaes and danced. The cast member you see at the end gave them both buttons that say "Honorary Citizen of Disneyland."

'Cause I'm the mom!

This is funny!

well, obviously

2007-09-27T15:49:00.000-07:00

Me (trying to record more of Abigail talking): "Elmo doesn't have any ears, baby."
Abigail: "No, he naked."

singing

2007-09-27T15:21:00.000-07:00

This clip is very short. She just couldn't wait to watch herself on the camera. If you want to see a longer video of her singing in the bathtub, I'll need to add you to my youtube friends.

talking

2007-09-18T17:29:00.000-07:00

She's had a lot to say lately. On this particular night, she had just delivered a 5+ minute long monologue. Of course, as soon as I brought out the camera, all she wanted to do was play with it.

so funny, I had to post it

Got this link from my friend Nina's blog.

We've been home for a week and I miss beautiful Colorado!

I love this picture of Chloe using chopsticks.

Playing and tidying up

2007-06-25T16:18:00.001-07:00

I saw Abigail doing this with her wooden people and ran to grab my camera. I appreciate the fact that she cleans up after herself!

Doing the hokey pokey

2007-06-21T15:50:00.000-07:00

Here is the Elmo's World video that we have watched hundreds of times. I think the voice of the woman singing is annoying, but Abigail loves it and frequently signs "again" at the end of the segment.

Beach day

2007-06-11T16:31:00.000-07:00

On Saturday morning, the sky was overcast in our part of L.A. We drove down to Huntington Beach and the weather was beautiful. We played for a few hours and Abigail made a couple of new friends, as usual. On our way back to the car, we heard music. There was a band playing praise music. Abigail started dancing. I hurried to get the camera out of the bag. Here she is dancing just a tiny bit.

2007-06-11T15:57:00.000-07:00

Abigail and I went to the LA Zoo last Thursday and saw this gerenuk, also known as a giraffe gazelle, chewing cud. Watch closely to see where the food goes.

My sister put this together. Poor Chris was injured so he stayed home to take care of Abigail... lucky girl!

more laughter

2007-02-01T16:13:00.000-08:00

A couple of days after I had made the previous video of Abby laughing, Chris outdid me!

There's nothing like the sound of a baby laughing. She was 7-1/2 months old in this video.

Animal sounds

2007-01-16T16:04:00.000-08:00

Chris and I often entertain ourselves by asking Abby to do animal impersonations.

2007-01-08T16:40:00.000-08:00

Here's Abby tasting toasted O's for the first time, back when she was 9 months old. FYI, Trader Joe's O's are the only ones I've found that are wheat free.

Here is Abby eating her first birthday cake last October.

On New Year's Eve we hung out at my parents' house. Here is Abby displaying the attention span of a 1-year-old. And a bonus peek at Oscar the amazing turtle!
