Our sweet-pea Abby is 6 months old today! Here's some fun facts and tidbits about her.
1. Abby was for sure the biggest baby in the NICU weighing in at 7 lbs. 6 oz.
2. Abby had the cutest and chubbiest face when she was born (she still has her chub and we LOVE it). You can't help but kiss those little cheeks!
3. Abby has quite the dimple on her left cheek and with them being so chubby, you can't help but laugh along with her.
4. Abby is calm and content. I know I'm always saying this, but after having Mckenzie the "off the wall go getting" kind of baby, it's a little exciting for us. The only time she fusses is when she's hungry or tired. Though, I think she's starting to recognize Mckenzie taking toys away from her and she doesn't like it one bit!
5. Abby is a CUDDLER! She still likes to be swaddled and she won't stay asleep while you cuddle her unless she can hold on or at least touch your shirt with her hands. Does that make sense?
6. Abby is a reacher. She has an amazing arm reach and although she can and will roll around to get where she wants, she'll first try to get it by reaching.
7. Besides reaching, Abby has a way of rolling into things and getting stuck. I'm always finding her in the oddest of places that a 6 month old could get into. In fact, the other day I found her almost completely under the bed!
8. Abby is patient...most of the time. She has to be with Mckenzie as her big sister.
9. Abby will start laughing for no apparent reason. Yesterday while we were in the car, minding our own business, she busts out giggling (she doesn't have a laugh. it's a giggle). Mckenzie turns to her and has a look on her face like "Abby, what's up with you???"
10. Abby has the bluest of blue eyes. I can't ever get her to smile when I'm taking pictures of her, but I love to take them just the same just to capture the blue in her eyes.
11. Abby has lot's of hair! Can't figure out if it has more brown or red in it.
12. Abby has decided to go back to waking up at random times at night. NOT fun!
13. Abby has lived in 2 different states and has traveled in 14 states! To think that if she had traveled with Dan out to MA when we moved there, the number of states would have increased drastically!
14. Abby has many nick-names. The main ones are "Happy Abby", "Crabby Abby" and "Gabby Abby", "my little tin-tern Abby", and "sweet pea" and "missy-moo".
15. Abby already loves to be pampered. She even prefers to play with her toys on mom and dad's nice soft bed instead on the floor.
We love our sweet Abby. She's such a blessing to our lives and our family. She brings so much joy and happiness. These last 6 months have been quite the adventure and we look forward to many many more adventures with our precious Abby.
Here's a couple of pictures I took at the park a couple of days ago.

What a sweetie! She looks so cute, I just want to cuddle her!
She is so cute! It was fun talking with you the other day. I I just found out that Mandy in pregnant with a little girl. She is due in six weeks. She told the staff last week, but I wasn't there. She has only gained 20 pounds. I just though she was gaining a little wait. I was in shock! Hey, I tagged you in my blog.
