2 Months Old!

Wow! 2 months has flown by! Our little girl is already two months old and we don't know where the time has gone. It seems like we were just bringing her home from the hospital yesterday. She's started developing her own little personality and is becoming a little more independent as each day passes.

This week mommy started back to work. It was a really tough transition for mom to go from seeing Abs all day long to only seeing her for a couple hours a day. Fortunately, daddy was there to help mommy that first day and he's been able to drop her off each morning. Mommy still goes and visits Abs during lunch breaks just because she can't stand being away from her for a full day just yet.

Abby goes in for her 2 month check up on Tuesday. We're excited to see what the doctor says about her development. Although, we aren't looking forward to all the shots that she'll have to endure!

Much love,

Moises & Jennifer

First trip to Arkansas

This weekend was Abby's first trip to Arkansas. We wanted to get up there so she could meet all the family that she hasn't been able to meet yet. There were so many stops to visit friends and family that we made on Saturday.

We stopped to see Mema and Walton on Saturday afternoon. Abby spent the whole time sleeping as she was worn out from her visits with her cousin Sally and her new friend Erik Robles. We were at least able to get a picture of four generations of Abby's family! We'll have to get another one when Abs is awake the next time we head to Arkansas.

Abby's first visitors on Saturday morning, were cousin Sally & Caroline and Kurt & Sarah. It was really cute to see Sally & Abby crying in unison! Here's Aunt Sarah and Abby and Mommy and Sally.
Abby's other visitors were her uncle Eric and all his boys. She enjoyed meeting them and it was great for mommy & daddy to see them. Mommy loved spending time with everyone and can't wait to come back when Abby is a little older.

Our friends, Pam & Jason just had a baby last Sunday so we also stopped by to visit them and meet Erik Logan. He's a cutie and so tiny! It's hard to believe that Abby was once his size!

Here's mommy & Pam with the little ones.

Abby's last visitors were Uncle Otta & Aunt Leann, they brought her a special blanket that Aunt Leann had made for her. She loves it! Here she is snuggling in it.

All in all a very good and busy weekend. She was a trooper and was very sweet most of the time. She even did well in the car ride home. This week she starts her first week at daycare. Mommy is sure going to miss all the special Abby time.

Much love,

This weekend Abby got to go visit some of her uncles and granparents in Allen. Uncle Sergio was in from Ohio so he finally got to meet little Abby. Here he is holding her for the first time. He did a great job and Abby loved all the attention.

Uncle Saul was even nice enough to let Abs take a nap on his chest while mommy and daddy went out for a little while.

Abby loved all the attention, but was really worn out by her bedtime. She napped most of the day the next day.

Speaking of loving attention, Lucy Lu (BB's dog), has had a hard time adjusting to BB giving so much attention to someone besides her. Here's a picture of Lucy trying to look like Abby so she'll get attention. Silly dog.

Go Cowboys!

Last night was Abby's first Cowboys game. She was so excited to root for mommy & daddy's favorite pro team.

We got there right at kickoff and stayed through half-time. That was about all that little one could handle and it was getting close to her bedtime.

We got little "Abs" a few different onesies to wear. This one says "My dad and I root for the Cowboys".

She wore an itsy bitsy polka dot bikini...

Abigail is 6 weeks old today. It's hard to believe that she's already this old now. She's is now quite the smily baby and is very much a morning person. She'll get a little fussy at the end of the day, but that has started to wane a bit over the last few days. She has also mastered lifting her head and moving it around. It's quite adorable to see.

Mommy decided to play dress up with Abby the other day and pulled out the "baby" kini that Aunt Jennifer got for her. Here she is with the bathing suit on. This is a picture that we'll show to her first boyfriend for sure!

Like we said, she's really the smily baby now so any time you start talking to her she'll immediately flash you an adorable toothless smile. It really makes our day.

She's also sleeping great! She's been sleeping in her crib for over a week now and is only waking up once a night. This was a wonderful transition for us as we are getting some much needed rest. She's also settling into a pretty consistent schedule during the day, which will help when she begins daycare.

Finally, Daddy let Mommy put her in a Razorback onesie, it'll be a few years before she'll be able to call the Hogs, but it's coming...of course she'll also be attending those midnight yells to cheer on the Aggies!

Much love,

High drama mama

We have joked from day 1 that Abby came out of the womb being able to do the same pout Jennifer does when she tries to get her way. Moises had always said the he hoped Abby wouldn't learn how to do it, because he'd be putty in her hands.

Well, as you can see, she has mastered her own pout. This is the face that starts all of her crying or fussing bouts. It's so darn cute that you could never be mad or frustated with her. More often than not, we marvel at how precious she is even when she's fussing. We may be a little partial though.


Also, we are on day 2 of Abby sleeping in her own crib, in her own room!! We are very happy with how well she's doing with it. She's only waking up 3 times a night which is great for us!

Much love,
Moises & Jennifer

A weekend of "Firsts"...

This weekend was a weekend of firsts for little Abigail. We drove to Houston to attend Alisha's shower on Saturday. We drove down Friday night and stayed in College Station because little miss couldn't make the whole trip. Grandma and Grandpa were happy to see her!

When we got to Houston on Saturday afternoon we took her to GiGi's house so Jennifer could help in the shower preparations. Ella Faith was so excited to talk to Abby she kept asking if we could wake her up. Ella was so sweet to her and kept saying how much she loved Abby. We can't wait to see those two growing up together!

Alisha's shower was a hit and baby Reece got lots of goodies. Abigail is excited to make her next trip to Houston in a month or so when Reece gets here.

Saturday night was Abigail's first night in a hotel and Sunday morning was her first trip to a restaurant. She did pretty well, until she woke up. Mommy and daddy had already finished eating so it was all good.

On a side note Abby is really starting to enjoy her bath time as you can see in the picture. Mommy caught her smiling in this photo. She loves bath time, but hates when she has to get out because she gets so cold.

We also had her one month check-up. She was 10.2 pounds and 22 1/2 inches long. She is considered 83rd precintile for weight and 95th percentile for height. The doctor said she is a super healthy little girl! We couldn't ask for anything more.

Much love,

Moises & Jennifer
