Week Two: Success!

Abby, Leif, and I have successfully made it through our second week of daycare.  Abby was lucky to spend her Wednesday with Grandma too! :)  The teachers at daycare absolutely love Abby.  They were telling me this week how easy she is and how she only cries when she's hungry.  They said that she is unusually easy to care for- and I couldn't agree more! :)  Abby is happy when we drop her off at daycare every morning and sleepy by the time we pick her up- her day is full of baby watching, playing, and lots of rolling. :)

Abby will hopefully be baptized on Sept 11- I'm just waiting for confirmation from our new reverend.  Abby will be baptized in the same church where I was baptized.  My grandparents are founding members of the Lexington United Methodist Church and we've acquired so many wonderful friends through the church.  We had been waiting for our new minister to arrive before making baptismal plans.  She is now here and she's absolutely wonderful!  :)

We are hoping to bring Abby to the Marshfield fair today.  Scattered showers are predicted for the day but the fair hasn't been canceled so we're taking that as a sign. :)  We're hoping to introduce Abby to cows, lamas, goats, ponies, and sheep today! :)  If we're able to make it, we'll definitely post pictures later.  :)

We're also preparing for Abby's first crazy storm!  Hurricane Irene is on her way but should be downgraded to a tropical storm by the time it hits us.  We'll be bringing all of my precious plants in tonight (we have a dozen or so nearly ripe tomatoes that I don't want to lose!)  Leif and I have loaded the freezer with bags of water in hopes that we can produce enough ice to keep the freezer cold if we lose electricity.  We don't want to lose our freezer stash of milk!  We're excited to weather the storm together but hope that everyone is safe and sound!

Sending love to all!! :)

Here is a little eye candy for you all.  A little while back Leif and I took Abby to the Butterfly Garden in Westford, MA.  Here is our little butterfly in the garden! :)
