Abby-Babby-Bo-Bana

Here's my banana loving silly girl. When she eats, likes lots of toddlers do (or so I hope?) she gets food all over her face. The messier the food the more she wants to get it all over her hair, eyes & anywhere else her grubby hands will reach.

Here she is eating bananas (an all-time favorite fruit). She has banana bits stuck in her nose.

I have 2 teeth - want to see?

This was probably Nick's all-time favorite picture for a few months running. Abby's 1st 2 teeth are prominantly displayed.

Teething & getting around

At Thompson's birthday party. Daddy let Abby have some beer... no, not quite. But she did love the way the cold bottle felt on her sore teething gums. She looked so tired here, it just made for a nice drunken stuper look.


Granny made Abby this sweater for Christmas. Abby's learning to get around by holding onto the couch, tables, stool, whatever she can grasp.


in her Chihuahua, MX t-shirt. The super thoughtful ladies I work with sent her this t-shirt. I had to take a bunch of pictures to send to them... & a touch of girlie white bow in her hair to make sure everyone knew she's a girl!


Abigail on a playdate with her friend Annabelle. Granny & Grandpa had the girls meet up for their 1st playdate.


Abby finally figured out what to do with a walker once she saw Annabelle pushing hers around.

Christmas

We had Christmas at our house on Christmas Eve. In what I've always seen on American TV & movies, we opened gifts in our PJ's. Here's Abby in hers.

Christmas Day. We went to Greensboro, NC to have Christmas with Granny, Grandpa, Great-Grandma, Great-Grandpa & Uncle Joe.

Granny, Grandpa & Abby

(noisey camera phone picture) I love Abby in this big fuzzy hat and her "My 1st Christmas" onesie (thanks Auntie Jenny!) She's of course, with all hats, just about to throw it off her head.

Christmas Pictures

These are some of our fav professional pictures. We used #1, #3 for our Christmas cards. I love her in that big ol' Santa hat.

If you love these pictures as much as we do, check out our photographer. We love Danielle! http://www.danielleanthony.com/

We met her through Mirin's Mom (thanks Darin!) http://dayswithmirin.blogspot.com/

Go Canes!

At the Carolina Hurricanes hockey game. Nick ordered the "ear muffs" to protect Abby from the super loud noises. Too bad it blocks out ALL noise so Abby's not all that fond of it.

Meeting Santa Claus

In my stroller. Waiting in line to meet the famous Santa Claus!


I was very happy to finally meet him.

How many babies fit in a cubby?

Hmmm... could a baby fit in a cubby? How bout 2?

Baptism

Our little Miss. Abby-love-bug was baptized today. The gorgeous handsmocked silk christening gown with pearl accents was lovingly made by Granny. Granny, Grandpa, Great-Grandmom & Great-Grandpa came all the way from Greensboro, NC to witness it.


Here she is with Pastor David Clift. We found out afterwards, no baby in his many many years as a pastor has cried when he's baptized them. I would have felt horrible if she spoiled his spotless record. But then again, he probably woudn't have told us then?

Flower Girl

The 3rd wedding in my family in 2007, Abby got to be the flower girl! She was about 5 mos. Here she is in her very dolled out Radio Flyer wagon. She wasn't sitting up well enough so she's sitting on a bumbo seat. Luckily the dress was so big it covered the seat.


Here's the ring bearer (also the Pastor's youngest son) who was the sweetest wagon pull boy. He pulled her wagon down the aisle & did the job beautifully. He was soooo CUTE & did I mention sweet?! He was wondering what to do if she cried when they were coming down the aisle. Luckily they both put on a great show.


Bride (Auntie Jenny), Groom (Uncle Abe), Mommy & Abby. The gorgeous bridal bouqet was done by my mom!


One of the last shots in 2007 with Halmuhnee (Grandmom) & Halahbuhjee (Grandpa) with their one & only grandchild. After the weddings they went back to Korea for awhile. They get to see Abby through Skype & pictures I mail them.
