Abbi 2!?!?

Then, September 2006

Yes that is right you all......Abbi turned 2 last week!!! I can't believe it. Such a cute girl. We love her so much. 2 years have come and gone and I feel that she should still be a little baby.......she will always be my baby. Except now she is forming sentences and asking for things. She even puts herself in timeout!! And some of her toys. She loves rocking her dolls and helping me watch Emily...a little girl that I babysit. That is where I have been. Exhausted. So tired from watching 2 toddlers. I watch her all day, all week. I don't know how you moms do it.
Cute story before I end. Yesterday, Abbi disappeared in our apartment. No big deal because she goes and plays in her room a lot. So I go looking for her and I find that the bathroom door is shut. The light is off and I hear some humming. So I open the door and Abbi comes to the door and says "Noooooo" I smell something that does not smell good. So I turn the light on and she is sitting on her little potty fully dressed and with a book. So I close the door and tell her to let me know when she is finished. I stay outside the door and finally I hear the toilet paper roll going. So I open the door and she says,"Done!" She went potty on her potty.......but still had her diaper and clothes on. I think Abbi is getting ready to train......don't you?

Oh yeah, we also cut her prized "Binkies". That was a rough nap time......but honestly my daughter is so easy.....we haven't had any problems putting her down since that nap time. The night I cut them I told her that she was a big girl now and didn't need the binkies any more. But she could hold on to it all night if she needed to. She said,"Okay mommy!" Fully trusting me. Then we sang her goodnight song and in the middle of it said sang "binkies broken!" She sang it with so much feeling and emotion. It almost broke my heart. Still if you ask her where her binkies are she says,"Binkies broken" very sorrowfully. You would think that her best friend move across the country.

Her doctors appointment went really well. If you live in Logan or the surrounding areas and are looking for a great pediatrician I recommend Abbi's doctor. Send me an email and I will let you know who he is. We love him. You know how they tell you that at age two you double their height to give you a good guess at how tall they will be? Well if that is true Abbi will be 5'10''!! That is a very tall girl and 8" taller than her mother. Also she is finally above 10% for weight. We are very happy for that. Our doctor said that he isn't concerned because he can see that she is very active and she looks and acts healthy. Plus she is still inclining. Plus tall and skinny is a desireable trait.
Seriously folks.......Abbi is a babe. We love her so much and she is very sweet. I am currently working on a slide show you show you how much she has changed.
