Our Snow Bunny

Abigail LOVES the snow! We had a nice-size snow storm on Tuesday this week and Abigail was close to driving me batty as she kept pointing outside and saying "shnoo" (snow) over and over again. I caught her trying to open the front and back doors several times. She also handed me her boots twice and opened the closet and to try to put on her coat. I was so glad when "dada" came home so we could all go outside. And here's how we spent the next 1 hour and 15 minutes:



She had so much fun. The faster we pulled her sled, the happier she became.

Did you notice that she said "ruff ruff" when Suzy (my neighbor) said to watch out for the dog fence wire? So cute! She knows the sounds to dog, cat, rooster ("doo-doo" as in cockadoodledoo), cow, sheep, and a few others. This week she learned to "tweet" for birds. And today we started really concentrating on colors. She seems interested in figuring out which spoons are red, pink, blue, or green.

Abigail is still amazing us every day. I swear she grows half an inch each night! Our pediatrician last month told me that this was his favorite age (about 15 months). I would have to agree. Every day I see that Abigail is so much like her father...funny, loving, daring, enjoys being the center of attention! Lucky her! Lucky me!
