Amazed

We're constantly amazed by Abigail and what a wonderful person she's turning into. She says new words and does new things every day. And, she gets happier every day too.  Here's a sampling:

She loves listening the classic disco song--"Ha Ha" or as the rest of the world calls it, "Staying Alive," by the Bee Gees.  She'll dance to it, saying "booty" and encourages herself as she moves by saying, "Go girl!"

She loves going out into our hallway and running "FASTER!" Her arm is extended out behind her, to help her move so unbelievably fast! You might even see her doing the crab walk.

"Fluffily" may be one of our most favorite words she says. Fink the cat is fluffily!

"I sorry" is one of her favorite phrases. She picked up those words from daycare. She also learned "hit" and "push" too. She's not actually doing those things, she just likes to talk about them. When we tell her no, we don't hit. She asks, "why?" We let her know that hurting people isn't acceptable. I'm sorry.

When she says "heavy," she says it in her lowest, heftiest voice.

She likes to do things for her"self." It could be feeding herself, it could be fixing the door she likes to pull off from her toy schoolbus or her attempts to put on her own shoes, she announces she does it, "self!"

She loves to put on our shoes and march with them on. She sometimes says "dinosaur" when she says she's marching, just like in the song, "We are the Dinosaurs."

She likes water (or as she says it, "wadur") but chances on she'd prefer Seeeelzter. She loving refers to the bubbly water with that elongated "eeeeee" most time she sips or slurps it from a straw, from her "pup" (cup).

She counts to 10. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 8 - 9 - 10 - Tennie - Twelvie. And, she says "1-2-3-FAST" and then runs.

And, she's now full of hugs for us and says "love you!"
