Lakehouse Weekend

We spent the weekend at the lake house so Abby could hang out with her cousins Reece and Avery. As usual, the girls had a blast running around the house and playing dress up. They took time to have bath with Avery and have a card game before we left. What a fun weekend for everyone!

Much Love,

Vikings vs. Cowboys

This weekend as usual we attended the Cowboys game. However, it was a little different for Abigail because she finally had some playmates her own age! We were super excited that the Rusin's were going to attend the game with their kiddos because we knew Abigail would have a great time playing with Adriana, Carlee and Presley. They all did have a great time, but it took some time for Abby to warm up. Presley, who just turned three, and Abby spent the first quarter sitting side by sid playing on their mommies' iPhones. Then by half time everyone started playing together! It was great for mom & dad too!

Happy Halloween!

 

Halloween was a lot of fun this year for Abigail. It was the first year that she had a Halloween Party at school and actually got to wear her costume to school. She thought that was so cool when we told her she could wear her Minnie Mouse dress to school. The kids went trick or treating through the Church's offices and got lots of neat treats. She said she had a lot of fun.

 

After school we picked her up and got her ready for a trick or treat around the neighborhood. Abby has a healthy fear of strangers so the first house we went to was kind of scary for her. At the next house we talked about how a stranger would open up the door and give her candy if she was kind and sweet. She did great at the next house, said "Trick or treat" and "thank you" when we left. It was so much fun for all of us!

BTHO Vanderbilt!

This weekend we attended Abby's first regular season college football game at Kyle Field. We arrived early to the 11:00 game so that we could give Abby plenty of time to explore the campus, eat some breakfast and shop in the campus store. Abby particularly enjoyed leading us around campus and looking at all the flowers. The game itself ended up a hotter than we anticipated so we quickly stripped Abby of her leggings so she could be more comfortable. She enjoyed most of the first half, but as we approached her usual naptime we knew it was time to leave. As soon as we got her to the car and strapped in, she was asleep by the time we exited the parking garage. All in all, it was such a fun family trip!

First Haircut

Last night Abigail finally had her first hair cut. Mommy has been putting it off due to her fear of losing sweet Abby's cutie curls. However, it was becoming evident that it was past time for her hair cut. We took her to Mommy's hair stylist and Abby sat on mommy's lap the whole time and did great. In fact, she was much more agreeable to Brenna combing and cutting her hair than she ever is for mommy & daddy. That's just how little ones are! Great news too is that she still has her curls!

Independence

Abigail has developed a fierce sense of independence these last few weeks and it has started extending to her clothing choices. Usually, we have offered her two outfits to choose from each day. Now, she insists on going into her closet and choosing from all of her clothes. The problem has become first, that it's getting colder and she always chooses a summer dress and second, that she doesn't always choose a matching outfit.

 Today's outfit was a cute summer dress, that mommy made her wear a shirt underneath to keep her warmer, a pair of red socks, purple crocks and a blue bow to top it off. We love that she's going to have her own sense of style and thought this outfit was too precious not to document....Mommy is just glad that Daddy dropped her off at school today.

Texas A&M vs. Arkansas

It was the fifth A&M vs Arkansas game this past Saturday night. For the second year in a row it rained on us during the game! Even with all the rain and sludge we had a great time watching the Aggies and Hogs play in Fayetteville. The only thing that would make it better if both teams could win each year! While mommy and daddy were attending the game, Abby spent time with her cousin Sally and they had a blast! Aunt Sarah kept us updated with the girls antics while we were at the game. We just love that Abby has so many cousins close to her age to play with. They are all such a blessing!

 

Much love,
