Hurry, push her down!

Abby is sooooo close to walking and I can't believe it. I am seriously freaking out about my baby girl getting so big! It is funny because with Sam I thought "oh my goodness get big enough for us to play and go to the park!" and I am feeling TOTALLY the opposite now. To be honest I have consciously NOT worked on standing with Abby. But now that she is such a crawler she will simply crawl over to a ledge and pull herself up. We've still got two months until she is one and I am hoping she doesn't take her first steps until a little closer to her birthday. Just so I can relish these last few months with out 3 cuties wreaking havoc on the house :)

She has also decided she no longer wants to wear headbands and bracelets. Unless I do a REALLY good job of distracting her the minute I put one on the hands are up and ripping it off. She has broken 5 bracelets now and I have given up for the time being. I know eventually she will WANT to wear them (unless she goes through an ernest tom boy stage like I did).

I just have to include this last one because it cracks me up. She totally looks like she is going to get frisked.

But after falling forward and on her bum a few times:

it is understandable to want to get a good grip on something. She is still a HUGE mommas girl and will NOT let anyone else hold her if I am in the room, which I must admit I LOVE. The first time she went to che che without crying my heart broke a little. (I know totally LAME of me but still).

I see so much a our families in her. She has her Aunt Robyn s huge eyes, her daddies dimples, my dark hair, her aunt Claire's "dinkiness", as we call it. Anyways I just wanted to share some pics of her before Sam's pirate party bonanza!

She is so beautiful. I think she looks a lot like you. Ava breaks any jewelry I put on her. It is so sad and forget even trying to put head bands on her. Abby is getting so big. I am sad I am missing it.
