Bookworm

She knows *not* to do this... lives up to her nickname "Abby-Bad-A**"


Digging into red Jell-O @ snack time! There's not enough time to use a silly spoon...


My little bookworm. Can she be laid back anymore?


Doesn't it look like she's really reading?!

Sunny Day in Fayetteville, NC

Mirin, Jayden & Abby went to visit Darin's aunt house in Fayetteville. They had tons of fun splashing in the kiddie pool, playing with the sprinkler, splashing in the pool and picking blueberries. Darin, Pia & I had Vietnamese food for lunch. It was the best VT food ever, yumm!!

& the kicker (my Philly family get a load of this!?!) lowest gas prices: $3.65/gallon

Mirin & her great aunt Pida (spelling?) Nice lawn huh? I've never seen such a well manicured lawn plus pear & banana trees, blueberries bushes, rose garden & even a persimmon plant. I hate hate my pampas grass but their row of pampas grass really looked nice.

Here's Mirin's blog: http://dayswithmirin.blogspot.com/


Jayden & his mommy Pia


Not so unusual seeing Abby eat BUT she's eating fried rice!!!! She has NEVER EVER touched a bit of the fried rice, steamed rice, any kind of rice in our house. (Well minus the exceptions of puffed Korean rice snacks & rice pudding).

Reading is FUN

OK round peg in the round hole... hmmm~~

ah HA~!! It goes like THIS :) I got it :)

Abby just lounging, kicking back (literally) and thoroughly enjoying her book!

As Abby would say "heh-woh" (means = hello)

Talk to the hand!

From Ms Tyeysha (of course!!) ;)

Abby & her friend Brandon had fun playing today. At this point, Abby was tired of whatever Brandon had to say.


Ms Tyeysha told Abby "not nice"... Brandon was the one that was sorry. What a sweetie! Abby can be such a little meanie sometimes. To which Nick would say "figures takes after her mom"... *rolling eyes*...


There's a boombox on the other side of the fence. Abby's listening and dancing. All the fencing in this corner makes the playground look a bit like kid prison huh? j/p~~ its just to separate the toddler and older kids' play areas...


She just blew a *kiss* & looks so darn proud of her little self


Sitting with Ms. Pat during storytime

Abby Blabber

This looks like Abby in the middle of her jibberish babbling lately. I can barely understand what all the babbling is about lately. She just keeps going then finishes with nodding her head up & down like she's agreeing with her smart self?!

Ice Pops & Blocks

The kids were all eating ice pops @ daycare. This is Abby's "this thing is TOO COLD!" face... the feeling must pass pretty quickly and she gobbles it down.


Case in point, she dropped a piece on the floor and went down to get it.


Here's Abby stacking blocks. This was one of her developmental milestones she missed on either the 12 mo or 15 mos well-child visits. The DR asked if she could stack 3-4 blocks. I said no, usually just 2, after that she wants to knock them all down. As Granny says, Abby is much more of a destructive girl than a constructive one.

Water Table

we finally have the water table set-up. (long story).

I had Abby play with it in her dress but she splashed and drank so much water out of it, she was unhappy wearing the soaking wet dress. We went back in and changed, totally ready to get WET!



She took off one shoe and proceeded to dunk it in the water. I've mentioned before, she drinks the water in her pool. Water table is just the same, she drank the water with the ladle and scooper. Well... this is pretty gross!!... she took off her shoe and drank out of that too. I had to laugh for a second, then took it away. You can barely see what she's doing in this shot.


She then proceeded to take off both shoes. I had to take away both for fear she'd drink out of both shoes. How gross!

Chillin on the Dinosaur

After 2 days of playing with Grandmom & Grandpa, Abby was back @ daycare today. Here she is chillin on the dinosaur (I think that's what that is? uhmm maybe its a caterpillar?)


Abby hates hats but loves her some cool sunglasses. Case in point...

Playdate

Thanks to Grandma & Grandpa for taking these pictures!

Grandma, Grandpa & Abby went over to have a playdate with Annabelle. They hadn't played together since Jan. They've both grown up so much since the last time.


The girls having a tea party!!
