When Animals Take Over

During Abbey's lunch I wondered into our bedroom to get my phone to call Joel and see how his day was going...... When I returned to the kitchen, this is what I found......

Apparently Lucy was hungry too and wanted to partake in some lunch: or she was just tired and wanted a place to sleep? Either way I had to take some pictures and then scald her for her bad table manners.

Abbey just thought it was hilarious
Abbey thought she needed some love, so love she got!

This is our life on a regular basis.... I guess you just have to learn to laugh!

I know I haven't been keeping you updated lately, I guess that is what happens when you work and have a 1 year old. So tonight I decided to get you up to speed! I have more posts below.

Enjoy!

Swimming With Daddy

For Abbey's birthday Abuelito y Abuelita Dimas sent her many neat presents, one of them being this cool swimming pool for the back yard. It has an elephant slide that squirts water from its trunk.

For those who know Abbey she is a FISH. She loves to play in the water, she becomes fearless!

Abbey will climb the stairs all by herself and slide down with ease. She absolutely loves it!

Abbey and her Daddy, they have so much fun together!

Bliss

The week after Abbey's birthday we found ourselves bound to a hotel. The hard wood floors in Mom's house were being redone while she was in California, so Joel, Abbey and I packed up and went to a hotel. We stayed for 5 days, which to most people would have been great. Free breakfast, a whirl pool tub, someone to come make your bed in the morning and bring you fresh towels, sounds great right? For Joel and I it wasn't so great. We have a 1 year old who can not for the life her sleep through the night. Plus, a hotel room = one large room. No where for Abbey to be alone and go to sleep by herself. It was 5 days of no sleep so when I saw this....

It was BLISS!!!

Webster's Dictionary definition of the word bliss is; supreme happiness; utter joy or contentment. When I found my baby sleeping like this.... It was all of the above, happiness, utter joy, and contentment!

It's moments like these that make life worth the havoc.

Isn't she just so cute?

Helping Mommy Unpack

When Abbey and I arrived home from California she decided to give her Mommy a helping hand. For all of those who don't know me all that well, I usually leave my suitcase on the bedroom floor until I need or use all the items in it. I know it's pretty sad, but I absolutely hate to unpack. I find it a gruelling process.

Her helping turned into throwing the contents of my suitcase all over the floor. Not to helpful, but hey at least the girl tried.
