Our blossoming girl

Abigail for several weeks has been making incredible, adorable fish faces and now--she is sucking in her bottom lip in the most darling way--still haven't been able to capture it on film (working on it!)

Last weekend, we went to the zoo and saw lots of animals but it was the chickens that actually caught her eye (or was it the fact that Papa was holding her and making chicken sounds that she noticed them at all--who cares, she had a great time and so did we!)

On Mama's birthday, she bought her the most beautiful flowers! We celebrated with friends and family at...Bubby's! And, then we took a walk along the beautiful Brooklyn Bridge Park. It was a very memorable birthday in part because Amanda now knows the true meaning of birthday and in part because she got to spend it with people she loves dearly.

She's grabbing both feet now!! And she's even grabbing her own pulkes (thighs)...there's a lot to grab and more every day!

We visited the Botanic Garden this week. They were watering their grounds and the sprinklers hit their pathway--it was sort of unavoidable. I tried serpentine maneuvers so that Abigail wouldn't get wet and yet, it was bound to happen--she let out a yelp but took it in stride as I patted her dry she giggled with delight.

A tree has been planted in Abigail's name, in Israel, thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
