Hiding the Food


Other than her doggy's mouth, she finds other places to hide her breakfast.

Watching Abigail eat her cake. She wasn't too into it. There was too much cake and too many people.

Hearing the ice cream truck at Abigail's party.

How she spent most of her actual birthday. She had her shots and wasn't feeling so well. She weighed in at 19lbs. and 29' long
In her birthday outfit. No need to dress her up in something fancy...she is just going to have fun getting dirtyHer "It's my First Birthday" Pin. She wore it all day

Mommy reading her toast to Abigail. It's a book that I've started with a letter each year of Abigail's birthday. I only wanted to read the first year.

Daddy showing off his birthday girl in her new Denver Bronco Sweatshirt
He is so proud
My attention to detail. The balloon shop had no balloon weights, so I had to make my own. This little girl is the theme of Abigail's party.
No kidding...the end of the night after all her guests had left. Abigail passed right out on Daddy.

And that didn't stop Daddy from getting in alittle Play Station time.

At the Beach


This is a video clip from our first trip to the beach a couple of months ago. I wanted to include it. Now that I know how to put the video clips on our blog, I will take more of them. It's a little more like being here than the pictures.
Hope you all enjoy them...

Playing outside!
This is the way Abigail likes to eat food. Actually, she is looking for any pieces she might have dropped.
Even the backside is cute!
She makes her Mother proud...
...sharing the same obsession with cleaning toliets
Her cute little hair barrett.
They are both awake. Abigail is just laying here looking at her Daddy. There is no telling what he is saying...
...but obviously it's funny
Look how big she is in her crib now

Caught in Action!



This is the way we feed Zoey when Mommy is not looking. No wonder the dog doesn't eat at night.

5th Anglico Family Day

Eric and Abigail just arriving at Family Day
We don't know anyone in this picture...just taking it for the background view
Again...no one, but check out the view
This pavilion sets on a cliff for anyone to use for party purposes
...and there is the cliff below
Abigail and Daddy enjoying some music
The ice chest gaurd.
Eating watermelon.

5th Anglico is the unit that Eric is with. They held a family day combined with a welcome home for one of the platoons that just got back form Iraq. As you can see the location was great, with the view and all. We made 70 or so cupcakes and two big batches of (Sheila's famous corn and jalapeneo) dip. It was delicious. Unfortunately for Abigail, who was having a blast with all the other little kids, her daddy got sick and we had to leave earlier than we wanted to. He thinks it was from old (born on date) Budlight from the night before, however it was not a hangover proven by the fever he had.

Misbehaving



For all of you, who have been missing Abigail, here is your Abi fix. This is the little monkey we know and love.
