June 2013

In early June, we took a family trip to California. Abby was 5 weeks old and just starting to smile a lot!


She was a little angel the whole time and loved snuggling with Mom on the beach!




This is how we found Abby one day after a nap - completely wiggled out of her swaddle blanket! She wasn't too happy.

Abby & Davis - neither one was very happy :)

Cutest smile!

Abby had a clogged tear duct that got really infected. We started putting some of Davis's leftover drops in her eyes and by the time we made it to the doctor the next day, it had cleared up!

Abby is pretty interested in the TV. Noah kept her entertained like this while mom prepared dinner one day!

Random / cute pictures...




This picture looks so much like Aunt Suzy and cousin Ellie when they were babies!

Noah loves being a big brother. He takes pictures and videos of Abby on his DS. 

Noah got to sleep in the bed one night when Russ was at scout camp. The next morning when mom got up to make a bottle, she came back to the bed to find Noah holding the binky in for Abby as he slept.

Morning smiles!


We took Abby swimming in Suzy's pool for the first time at 8 weeks old. She didn't seem to mind it. Russ put her under a few times and she only whimpered for a few seconds after each time. The whimpering might have even been just because she was tired...




 ...As soon as we wrapped her up in a towel and gave her the binky, she went right to sleep.

Mom's favorite thing in the world right now is cuddling with her sweet baby girl!

Abby's baby blessing

A few weeks before Abby's blessing, I did a search online for blessing dresses so that I could find a style I liked. I LOVED the 2 dresses in these pictures and sent the pictures to Grandma Price to see if she could make something similar.



Grandma Price of course figured it out and made Abby the most perfect dress!


A few days before her blessing, Aunt Alisse took pictures of Abby in her dress. Davis was being blessed the same day (same ward too), so we attempted a photo-shoot with the 2 babies together.








Saturday night before the blessing, we laid out everything Abby would need for her special day. (By the way, Grandma Price made that cute little dress bag too.)

Before church... my cute husband & baby were matching!

After the blessing (Russ did a great job and gave her a very sweet blessing.)

We love our baby girl!

Grandma Price, maker of the dress - with Abby, who wore it so well :)

We went to Grandma & Poppy's house afterward for a combined brunch with the Sherwoods, Prices, and Baldwins. This is our first family shot with Abby in it.

Sherwood Family supporters (missing a few people who left before the picture, as well as Brad & Danielle who were in Spain).

Price Family supporters (missing a few who left early, as well as those who live outside of Arizona)

Blessing Day babies with their mommas :)

Abby was a perfect angel all day. I had stressed a little about keeping her on a certain feeding schedule but she slept through the night from Saturday to Sunday, never fussed throughout the day, and was a happy girl. She must have known what a good day it was!
