Cowboys vs Giants

 Abby must be a good luck charm for the Cowboys. Last night we attended the home opener against the Giants. Up to this point the Cowboys have never defeated the Giants in the new AT&T Stadium and last night they finally snapped the losing streak with a win! Abby has attended several games in the new stadium in her short life, but hasn't been old enough until now to really enjoy it. She was buzzing with excitment when the Cowboys took the field and the giant fire torches lit up the sidelines. She clapped and "sang" the national anthem and at kickoff she continued clapping and throwing her hands in the air. She was a great little cheerleader!

A Week with Grandparents & Labor Day!

Last week Abby had a vacation from daddy & mommy and got to stay with Grandma & Grandpa at Uncle Saul's! Aunt Mari and Bibi came to visit as well. She had a great time with the Ledezma crew and was not too interested in mommy's cooking when we picked her up on Friday...Grandma spoiled her with all her delicious food!

After we picked her up on Friday we spent the weekend at Papa and BB's lake house for Labor Day. The Petersens and the Cains came up for the weekend as well. It was a house full of adults, kids and dogs! We had a lot of fun watching the kids play together. The girls really enjoyed dress up and pool time.

On Sunday we celebrated Reecie's 2nd birthday with an awesome ice cream cake. The rest of the afternoon was spent in the pool, Abby had so much fun that she didn't want to get out. The kids all zonked out very early Sunday night after all the play time!

Reece's Cake Time

Picking wild flowers

Abby loves picking flowers or "flowders" as she calls them. On cooler evenings we go outside to play after dinner and she will spend the evening collecting flowers to bring inside and put in a vase. She always shares a flower with mommy and daddy, but then quickly takes back to work them into her bouquet!

First Week...

Abigail's first week in her new daycare was interesting to say the least. She and another child have not been getting along very well so we will probably be doing a conference with the director in the future. She also seemed to miss her other teacher quite a bit. The good news is that this morning she was excited to head in and quickly said 'bye-bye' to daddy so she could go off and play.

Much Love,

First Day of School

Abby started the 2 and up toddler class this morning. It's quite a change from her last class and much more scheduled. It also meant that she had a new teacher. We loved her last teacher so much so that mommy cried when we said goodbye to her on Abby's last day in her class. This morning was a little tough on Abby. She was a little clingy in the unfamiliar surroundings and classroom, so we had to say goodbye our girl as she still clung to our legs. It was a good thing most of her friends moved up with her because we got a call from the director just a few minutes after we left letting us know she was running and playing like a happy kiddo. She was really worn out tonight and didn't make a fuss when she went down at 7:30!

Much Love,

Aquarium Visit

This weekend we went to visit the Dallas Aquarium with Grandma, Mari and Seth. Seth was so sweet with Abby and kept pointing out all the animals for her to see. We spent all morning on Saturday exploring all the exhibits and had a great time. Afterward we stopped at a great pizza place downtown for lunch then headed to the lakehouse to swim. Seth and Abby swam and swam! What a great fun day! After our day of fun we packed up the Abs to spend a week with grandma! We are sure going to miss the little one, but she will have a great time!

Rain, Rain...brings Mud, Mud!

Last night we had a really good, hard rain in the area. The rain left our backyard quite soggy for our evening play. Abby did not seem to mind and as a matter of fact loved sinking her hands into the soggy dirt. By the end of the evening her face, hands and shoes were caked with mud. We ran around the backyard with the dogs and Abby even figured out the mystique of climbing trees! She's still not quite coordinated enough to get up the tree, but she really wanted to do it by herself.

Much Love,
