Abbigail Updates!

Again, I am not the best blogger, but I have lots of pictures to put in showing Abbigail! She is growing so well and (though you may be wondering how) she is getting cuter everyday!

This is Abbi enjoying her swing. In the morning when she first wakes up she likes to eat, then she likes to swing for awhile and just look around. She is such a good baby!!

Abbi got a pretty bad diaper rash. We're not sure how it got so bad, but it seemed to look a little pink one day, and the next it was almost peeling :-( So everytime she had a dirty diaper, we would dunk her little tush in the sink or tub to wash it off. She liked to look at the water running while she was in the sink. Anyway, after about 5 days it cleared up...thank goodness!


We were trying to get a picture of Abbi smiling, we didn't get one this time, but I still thought she was pretty cute in this picture!


It's pretty easy to get a picture of her yawning as she seems to do it ALL the time!


This is Abbi's first blowout! I don't think there is anything that stains as bad as baby poop! I took this off, soaked it, scubbed it, sprayed it and washed it, and there is still a little discoloration. Oh well.


We finally got a picture of her smiling! She does bigger ones where her eyes squint up because she is smiling so big. It's funny how grown adults will do anything including making a fool of themselves just to get a little smile out of a baby.


This is Abbi at 1 month old! She is getting a little bigger, but her cheeks are definatly filling out! We haven't been able to get any professional pictures done yet, so you have to live with my amature pictures. But I think the dress Grandma Welch gave her is absolutly adorable!


This is Abbi snoozing with her dad after she has eaten in the morning. He didn't have to go to work for another hour, so I decided to get ready while I had someone at home to watch her. This is one of Mark's favorite things, to cuddle up and snooze with her after she's eaten.

And finally, this is Abbi today! Grandma Welch gave her a packet of cute little headbands with bows on them. Abbi has such a small head that the headbands I had looked HUGE on her head! But these little petite ones are perfect! She hasn't lost any hair, and it is very curly on top. Mom likes to put a little mousse in it after her bath so it stays curly all day! But she is a happy little baby, and we LOVE having her. It makes me wonder what did we ever do before she was here?
