Gerber/Stinker Face

I sent this picture to my mom yesterday, and she said it reminded her of the Gerber baby.  I call it her stinker face, because she had just blown out her diaper.  Something she's been doing a lot of lately.  Oh well. We sure have been enjoying the weather - sunshine and melting snow.  Too bad it has to go away!  It is making me really want spring (which I already really want since I'm home all the time).  I really am looking forward to summer time, going to parks, swimming, and getting to know the neighbors better.  Winter time sure is hard, everyone just stays in their house!      

Joe starts class again this week, and I'm really sad. We've enjoyed having our evenings free together, and having him home!  Guess this means more trips to my parents, which I don't think they'll mind!  I feel like I'm starting to really enjoy being a mom, especially now that Abigail seems to be getting happier. I know all babies aren't the same, but sometimes I see all the calm babies in church and wonder what it would be like.  She has started taking naps in her swing, which is a big relief to me! Here are some pictures after we went on a walk Monday.

Laugh & Smile

Her first laugh ... we were so excited that we got to experience it yesterday!  You really only need to watch the first twenty seconds or so.  I don't know how to crop videos yet :).


SMILE!!  This is one of the best smiles we have been able to capture on camera!! I was pushing the button on one of her toys, and it made her smile every time.


don't forget to check out the post below ... Joe was really excited about it!

Bows and Flowers

So I must say that I've become a fan of the girly clothing out there.  One trend I do like are the bows and flowers that you see more and more baby's running around with.  But just like sunglasses, they are getting bigger and bigger.....I don't know if I can take it any more:
