Recent Abigail News

Abigail is transforming into a little girl before our eyes! I blink and she has learned something new. At 2 1/2, she is seeking even more independence and talking and acting as though she is going on 14 already. The drama she brings is probably just a foreshadowing of her 14 year old self to come as well (begin praying for us now please!). She talks NON STOP from the time she wakes up to the time she goes to bed at night. I take that back. She talks for a good hour to hour and a half even after we put her to bed too. I'm not exactly sure who she is talking to until 9:30pm each night, but they have some funny conversations. You can not get anything past this girl either. She is always listening, comprehending, and repeating what you say. Her memory astounds me as she will recall places, things, conversations, etc. from months ago regularly. She has adjusted beautifully to becoming a big sister and has BIG LOVE for "Luke Man" or "Lukey Luke" as she calls him.


Here she is below on her first day in "Big Girl Panties." She was so proud of herself, but not proud enough to keep them dry. We continue on the potty training journey and are getting better and better each day. Stopping to go to the potty is more of an annoyance to her than walking around with wet pants.

Some dear friends and neighbors of ours handed down this purple princess Pontiac Solstice to Abigail and she is now all over the roads in our neighborhood. It took her a week or so to get the hang of steering (one of Daddy's sprinkler heads was sacrificed to her reckless driving) but she has mastered it now and asks to drive her car all the time.
The beginning of summer meant the end of Mom's Morning Out at church. Abigail LOVED going to "school" twice a week and adored Mrs. Darlene and Mrs. Angela. She learned a ton too! She talks often about her school friends and will really miss them this summer. Mommy already misses Abigail's school days too. We are already counting down the days to August when she starts back in a new class. Thank you PPBC for the awesome ministry of Mom's Morning Out. Below is one picture from her end of the year party at MMO (she couldn't put the sweets down long enough for a picture).
