Abi Walking

As always, Abigail is ahead of the game. She started walking at 8 months and is getting better every day. Can't wait till she can run away when her parents call her! :P

It's A Girl, Again!

We found out last week that Bybee Baby II is a girl. While we were initially a little disappointed, we've gotten over that and are now thrilled to add another beautiful baby girl to our family.

We're tossing around "A" names to stick with the theme of Annette, Abigail...so if anyone has any suggestions feel free to let us know!

Abigail Can Clap!

A few days ago at dinner, Abigail demonstrated that she can now clap! She is so cute. We managed to record her on video, so take a gander.

Abigail's Silly Look

For some reason, Abigail likes to make this totally funny face where she squishes up her face and makes funny breathing sounds, especially when being fed. It's hilarious.

It took several attempts to catch her with the camera...

but we finally did.

Abigail's First Visit to Santa

Dad decided that Abigail needed to visit Santa, so we made a trip to the North Pole.

There was snow, snowmen, and chocolate.












While we waited, we had our pictures taken in our Santa hats.

As the time drew near to meet the Jolly One, Abigail was so excited, she chewed on her finger.

First, she met the lovely Mrs. Clause. Abigail was fascinated by her bracelet, even trying to take it with her. Mrs. Clause was very gracious and said several times how adorable Abigail was.

The time finally came. She was taken to Santa and placed on his lap. She looked him over and immediately grabbed his button and then his watch. She wasn't fazed at all by the beard, hat, or red get up. She just loved the jewelry. But I'm pretty sure I saw her whisper in Santa's ear that she wants a baby brother or sister. I think she'll get her wish. :)

First Professional Photos

We decided it was time to bite the bullet and get some professional pics done. We went to JCPenney, and were surprised that they actually did a decent job. We like these pics as much as we like any pics of ourselves!

It was nearly impossible to get Abigail to smile. She was too focused on checking out the camera and the backdrop, and when the pillar came out, she walked all around it and pushed it around. It would have been funny if it hadn't been so frustrating.

I had to get this pic because it reminded me of my own baby pic. Probably just because it's black and white. :)
