March 2015

March was a busy month... one day mom was feeling overwhelmed with a million things that needed to get done. She sat down with Abby to put her to sleep and planned to get things done during her nap time, but couldn't bring herself to get out from underneath her. Babies sleeping are the sweetest thing ever!

Lucy and Davis spent the night when their parents were moving out of their old house. The next morning, these 4 had breakfast in the backyard. They loved it!

Cute cousins in jammies :)

Our stake put on a "shindig" to celebrate 25 years as a stake. It was an awesome event. Every room inside the church was decorated and tents were set up outside with fun games for kids and dinner for the whole family.
 Mom had to sneak this picture of Sophie and Abby being so sweet together one day. They didn't know she was taking the picture as Sophie was kissing Abby's head.

Sweet sisters :)

In this picture, Abby was looking out the shutters at Grandma & Poppy's house, at Davis who was outside looking in. It was so cute! Davis kept yelling "ABBY!" and Abby was cracking up.


Abby got to have a few play dates with Kozie, her friend that lives across the street. These 2 are so funny together. Abby now asks for "Kozie's house" once in awhile, like she's big enough to knock on the door and ask "can you play?"



These girls, like all other kids their age, don't like to share toys. They want something only if the other one has it. Kozie held onto the high heels for a pretty long time and as soon as she let them go, Abby claimed them! You can tell by this picture that she wasn't about the let them go. Haha!!


Abby found this little spot in the flowerbed, that she thinks is "her spot". She'll gather up the things she needs, like her binky and blanket, and just go sit out there.


Mom put this hat on her (as a joke) when they were at Target one day. You'd think she would have ripped it off her head. Instead, she wouldn't let mom take it off and when she finally did, Abby cried for a long time, "gampa's hat". It must reminded her of Grandpa Price's cowboy hat!

Dad's glasses

We went out to eat at Blue Adobe Grill on Dad's birthday and Abby brought her high heels to be fancy! The tight shorts and high heels are hilarious.

We didn't do much this year during Spring Break, but Grandma Vicki did treat everyone to an afternoon at Peter Piper Pizza. It was the one day that Ellie and Noah's Spring Break overlapped Jax and Roxy's Spring Break.

Cutest little shopper. She loves Ellie's purse.

For several weeks leading up to Spring Break, mom promised Noah and Abby that they could have a slumber party in Noah's room during the break. Abby follows Noah down to his room every night and mom always takse her up the stairs screaming. She was so excited when mom told them both goodnight and left without her. The trundle was all ready for their sleepover! About 30 minutes later, Noah was texting mom from his room and telling her that Abby was too wild and she needed to come take her. Haha! She is such a night owl. The time stamp on this picture is 11:01pm.

Abby got to pet this lamb at the Easter pageant!

Look close to see the lounger on the chair!

We had our first lake outing at the end of March when the Westovers came to town. The water was too cold for the AZ residents but the Oregonians got in the water and swam around! Abby and Mom were just along for the ride. She liked to drive the boat with dad and just be cute.



This is Abby looking so cute in her Easter dress. Easter Sunday falls on General Conference Sunday this year so she got dressed up a week early!


We spotted the Easter Bunny at the mall and Abby was giddy. She was standing on her tiptoes to see the bunny. She wouldn't have been so giddy if we got too much closer!

February 2015

Abby acting older than she really is. She helps herself to Russ's ipad then sets up a little work station with snacks and all!

She gets more attached to her blankies every day!

Abby LOVES Noah. She is always excited for him to get home from school and then sad when he leaves to hang out with friends. If he's hanging out outside, she wants to be with him. I captured that pretty well with these pictures of her just watching him work.


 We went on a Sunday night bike ride and Noah really wanted to be the one to pull Abby in the bike trailer. He loved it and so did she!

This is Abby zonked out... watching the "baby channel" I'm sure!

She seriously thinks she rules the house...



(getting into Dad's candy)
 
She LOVES wagon rides... especially when Dad is involved.

The kids get to sleep in bed with mom when Dad goes out of town. Nobody except Abby was comfortable this particular night!

Hanging out and enjoying her pizza with Noah, Ellie, and Roxy at Riggs's Eagle Project
 
Visiting Riggs's grave, two weeks after he passed. It was a pretty day and perfect weather outside for a picnic!

This princess loves her high heels. She makes sure to hold them on her feet even when it's not comfortable to flex your feet in order to hold them on.
 
Abbers & Davers... kissing cousins :)



This is our little neighborhood and ward friend, Boston... taking such good care of Abby at the school playground. She loves to swing!

Mommy & Abby got up really early (at least early for Abby) to cheer Suzanne on... she ran a 1/2 marathon! We made some posters and had fun being spectators instead of athletes!
