Our daughter, the trouble maker

Yesterday when I picked Abby up from daycare, I learned that she is a trouble-maker- not in a mean, menacing way, but in a "keep your eyes on that girl, she's trouble" way.  Evidently yesterday Abby was in to everything- had her hands on everything- and was trying to pull herself up on everything.  The baby gate was up on the door to the infant classroom- solely for Abby's sake because the girl tries to escape and visit other rooms.  She's all over the floor and her teacher gave me the distinct impression that she has more energy than any other child in the facility.  ;)

Abby really is a live wire- and we love it.  She's really great at entertaining herself as well but there are times now where all she wants is to be held- and if you put her down- she has learned to scream an ear piercing scream.  It is impressive. :)  She has a mirror in her crib that keeps her smiling daily- she just loves that happy baby in the reflection- as do we. :)  I think she could spend an entire day laughing at that baby and making funny faces at that baby in the mirror.

Abby's tried a couple new fruits this week too- papaya and blueberries.  She loves both.  The smell of the papaya reminds me of tropical vacations so I think we'll include it in her meal plan for a while.  ;) :)

We are getting ready for the holidays and hoping for a bit of snow to make it feel more like Christmas!! :)  I just finished addressing the christmas cards, they'll be hitting mailboxes next week! :)  Our gifts are somehow getting wrapped and Orion has decided to leave the wrapping paper on- though we have decided that ribbon is a no-no- he's too interested. ;)

We're sending love to all and promise to update more often after this crazy holiday season!  We hope everyone has a blessed, happy, and magical holiday season.

Love you all!
