La première fête d'Abigail

La première fete d'Abby a eu lieu le 20 septembre 2009. Il a fait tellement beau, ce fut une merveilleuse journée entouré de famille.

Abigail grandit tellement vite, et elle remplie nos journées de bonheur!

Abby smiling at Daddy

Abby's new friend Peter the Puma

This Puma puppet was the only childhood stuffed animal I kept. It was great to see Abby playing and sharing with Peter the Puma. She will one day be a great big sister, I am sure of it!

Brushing her teeth

Abigail is brushing her teeth twice a day now. She really loves when we hand her the tooth brush. She also likes the little girl in the mirror!

Il fait froid!

J'ai laisser la porte -patio ouverte toute la nuit, et quand Abigail et moi nous sommes reveillées, on avait froid! Alors je lui ai mis sa belle robe de chambre (beau cadeau de matante Dédé) et des babylegs et Abby était pas mal plus comfortable!

Fun in Hemmingford with the grand-parents

We went to Hemmingford to spend some time with Oma, and we had a great time with the family. Abby got this weird reaction to something. She had red bumps all over. They pretty much dissapeared the next day.

A special message

I went back to work after 1 year off to spend time with my little girl, and I came back to a special message. Abby was upset that I put her down to take a picture. Thanks Mark and Abby!

Abby aime jouer dans l'eau!

Une visite a Sans-Souci

Abigail a fait sa premiere visite a Sans Souci au mois d'aout. On a découvert qu'elle a vraiment peur des animaux. Les chevaux de loin ne semblait pas etre un problème, mais de proche, elle ne voulait rien savoir. J'espère bien qu'elle s'en remettra!


Avec Josiane et Salvador qui faisait sa première visite a Sans Souci aussi.

A picnic in the park

While Mark was away this summer, we went to the park with Daph and the kids. We had a great time. The only sad thing about that day is that it started to rain :( But we still had fun while it was nice.

Fun at the Biodome

We went to the Biodome today, along with everyone in the city! Who doesn’t try to do something fun inside when it is pouring outside and also on the last day of construction holidays? So after an hour wait inside in our wet shoes, we got in. We only stayed for about an hour, because it was so full, it was not easy to take our time walking through. Plus, when you are pushing your jumbo stroller, you are blocking a lot of space.  Abby seemed to particularly love the fish. Which is odd because they weren’t pretty tropical fish, they were ugly St-Lawrence fish… and she screams in terror when she sees a cuddly adorable dog… weird girl!

Visite chez Grand-papa et Grand-maman

On est aller passer la journée avec grand-papa et grand-maman cette semaine. Abby a rencontré sa grande tante Dédé, et elle a marcher pour la premiere fois! Elle a aussi decouvert que les framboises, c’est bon! Elle a ensuite fais un petit tour a la plage municipal. Elle faisait des cris de dinosaure dans l’eau, et le soleil s’était couvert, alors elle commencait a avoir froid…

 

These feet are made for walking…

Abigail commence a se prommener! Elle a encore besoin d’aide, mais elle a beaucoup plus confiance en elle!

Abby cracks me up!

Abby is so funny. She has been screaming more and more, and it is really ear piercing! I will try to catch her in the act soon so you can all hear what I’m talking about.

A few weeks ago Paul took some pictures of Abby. Here are a few. I feel so lucky to know someone who takes such beautiful pictures of my daughter!

Who doesn't love bubble wrap?

Nobody, that's who!

Abby met a new friend

Abby seems to have just realized that there is a little girl in the mirror that looks at her and moves when she moves. We got the camera a little late, but the excitement that you see at the beginning lasted a few minutes before we got the camera.

BBQ avec Josi et Salvador

On a invité Salvador et Josi a venir souper avec nous, et il faisait tellement beau qu'Abby s'est baigner dans sa piscine pour la premiere fois! L'eau etait un peu froide, mais c'etait pas mal agreable!

Les bleuets sont bons!

Abby a manger des bleuets. C'est salisant! Elle a eu une petite main de shtroumph prendant 1 journée ainsi qu'une barbe de bleuets...!

c'est une fille!

Si quelqu'un avait un doute... c'est definitivement une fille! Elle crie comme une fille, et elle aime les souliers!

Sitting pretty

After practicing with the physiotherapist on Tuesday, Abby started sitting up! Until now she would kinda sit still when we placed her in the sitting position, but now she gets there on her own, and she is so much more stable than before!

Premiere vacance de famille

On a passer la fin de semaine a Portland, ME. On a commencer notre voyage en arretant voir Lise, Don, Chloé et Faye au Vermont. Abby n'est vraiment pas une grande fan des chiens, mais elle s'est habituée avec Cooper, parce que c'est un bon chien. Elle a rencontré Faye et Chloé pour la première fois, et elle était très intriguée par ses grandes-cousines!

Abby est tellement gentille et patiente avec nous! Elle a passer tellements d'heures dans l'auto! Elle nous faisait même des sourires lorsqu'on arrètait. La temperature n'etait pas vraiment bonne, mais rien ne pouvait ruiner notre premiere vacance en famille.

Fun day!

Abby went to her first brunch today. She got to see some of her great-aunts and great-uncles, as well as her great-cousins (I decided that great-cousins is better than second or third cousins) and her great-grandma too! We then all went to the mall and as usual, Abby was an exemplary baby!












This is our happy little lady after a very long day! Not even a little cranky! It gives me some hope about some future road trips!

Une belle facon de commencer la journée!

Quoi de mieux qu'un bébé qui fais des "bonjour" le matin!

Her first tooth and fun times outside.

We had a little get together with Chris, Daph, Geoff and Becca this weekend. We had Abby here, and she was pretty funny in the grass. She was posing like a pro! She seems to think she is a little model in training!

Also, Auntie Daphnee found Abby's first tooth. Ok, it was more like a tooth hole, but it was there!
