A Bayshore Walk

Dad came home for the weekend and it was AWESOME!!!!  We went to Dunkin Donut and then bought some cool stuff to make a dress and pillow.  After a grilled cheese sandwich lunch on Saturday, we played around while daddy worked on mommy's computer.  Mommy met some friends for dinner that night while we gals got to play with daddy.  On Sunday, we went to the late service at church and then to First Watch for lunch.  We are pretty excited because they built a new one down the street from the house and, well,  we love it!!!!  After that and some grocery shopping, Daddy took us to Bayshore to get some exercise.  Needless to say, when it was bedtime we were tuckered out.  We asked Daddy to take some pictures of us out there which we posted below.  As well, Daddy offered to take a couple videos of us.  Nothing terribly special, but something to help us remember our day.

We hope everyone is having a great weekend and enjoying the extra day off.  I know mommy and daddy enjoyed sleeping in till 9:30.  They must really appreciate that Abby and I let them.  Mind you, by 9:30 we were starting to get a bit bored and decided it was time for them to wake up.  

Okay, we are socked in with the rain.  Figured I would take the break and show you some pictures.

It was a really nice day!!

Thing 1 and Thing 2

Nothing else to say here.... we are the Things, hear us roar!!!!













Because they are making me

I would not be writing this post had I not been served a severe threat.  As you know, mommy has a jeep.  She loves it.  As such, she has asked me to put a couple pictures of it on the blog devoted to ABBY and ME!!!!  Because I can not reach the top of the oven and consider eating important, I will oblige mommy and put a couple pictures of her beloved on the blog.  Please forgive the interruption from important posts for this self serving ridiculousness.

Mommy's Christmas present from daddy

Happy New Year

Hello everyone!!!

The New Year is here and what better time to dust off the keyboard and update the blog.  We are just getting off of a fantastic high of having daddy home for almost two weeks!!!  It was AWESOME!!!  Christmas was very good to Grace and I.  Suffice to say that Santa hooked us up with the things we asked for (within reason) and mom and dad hooked us up with things we didn't ask for, but our family and friends were clutch in putting Christmas over the top.  We have enough clothes, dolls and gift cards to keep us busy for - well, until next Christmas.  We loved EVERYTHING!!!  More than the presents though was the extra time we got to spend with mommy and daddy.  Mommy took a week off of work and I think it was just what the doctor ordered.  She did not have work or school to bother her and was able to take care of herself (mind you, she did get a little sick!!!).  We went to a football game and watched the Bucs beat up on the Seahawks.  We went to Jacksonville and spent time with our friends and grandparents.  We got to skate on our new skates.  We helped mommy make a yummy dinner.  We watched Tangled.  Needless to say, we were very busy and had a blast.  Unfortunately, daddy had to go back to school and we are back at the grind.  Grace opined as much when she talked to mommy about how boring the routine is.  She can be so dramatical sometimes!!!

We are back at school now and we actually love it (save Grace's frustration with having to wear a uniform).  The weather has warmed up quite a bit and we are able to play outside a bit more.  Below are some pictures of when mommy took us to the park.

Okay, I know you are not interested in much more than any pictures we post, so I will no belabor the process.  My family and I hope you all had a great holiday and that Santa brought you everything you wanted and more.  May your 2011 be blessed.

The Meatball.

Get ready

Get set




GO!!!!
Forgive the low quality, it is from a video mommy sent to daddy on the phone.  Also forgive the singing, we tell her she is good, but that is to not make her sad.





This is me doing my thing.  Again, mommy's singing.....
