The other day at the park Abbi wanted to walk all over the place, but she would occasionally stop to contemplate her next move. When she does this, she often starts to play with her hands. Its cute.

Also - I posted yesterday about the spaghetti all over her face. We had spaghetti again last night with grandmom and she wasn't interested in the meatballs at all, and not really in the spaghetti. The bread and desert she was definitely into!

Thinking

Last week Abbi had a go at some spaghetti on her own. We let her eat it with her hands since she's still not to keen on using a fork or any other utensil not her hand. She clearly got it all over her face, so we just went for a bath afterwords instead of trying to wipe her clean.

Yesterday we celebrated our nephews Damein's 7th birthday and setup outside was a slip in slide. We decided to give it a try with Abbi and see how she liked it. She loved it! You can see her here ending up in the pool of water at the end. Jenn took this picture and I love it. I love how you can see the water plume Abbi and her raft created.

Slip and Slide

We got this onesie for Abbi when we were at Disney World back in April. First of all, that feels like forever ago, and when we bought this for her I thought it was gigantic, and now here she is wearing it. And walking in it! I took this picture last week when we were playing at the Kinder Farm playground.

Over the weekend we were playing outside with Abbi and after a bit she decided to climb up the steps and sit to relax, hence this picture.

Today Abbi had her 4th visit to the doctor to treat her port wine stain. This time she was back with the same doctor that we saw the first and second times. The doctor is amazing, very nice and patient with us and Abbi. They upped the power this time, just like the past three times and treated Abbi's cheek and nose as before. The bruising is just as bad as always, but Abbi did phenomenally this time. Once she was wrapped up, to keep her from moving around, she calmed down and didn't cry or squirm, she was amazing.

Now we'll start the process of recovery from this treatment and according to the doctor we should start to see significant improvement. We're hoping!

Sitting Pretty

Grandmom and Grandad gave us Abbi's birthday present early so that she could go ahead and start enjoying it throughout the summer. It was this swing that we've put up in the tree in our front yard. As you can see, Abbi definitely enjoys the new swing. Thanks grandmom and grandad!

I think Abbi looks really cute in this picture. I'm bothered that its a little blurry, but that couldn't be helped. The sunglasses on her face lasted about 2 seconds before they were off and in her hands as she was trying to rip them apart. Jenn in particular liked this outfit as she felt it was definitely a "summer" shirt.
