Grandma Ina visits

Abby's new outfit

Abby, having a good morning.

Abby and her toys

Abby has been discovering her toys the past couple of days. So we surrounded her!

Back to baby pictures

The snow is melting off this morning, since we actually had accumulation last night. The first time since 1989 according to the natives. In other news Abby is suddenly getting much better at holding her head up. Maybe she is sick of seeing the Excersaucer over in the corner that she can't use yet. :)

More snow in Tucson

I thought this video was funny for pointing out how rarely it snows in Tucson.  My graduate student and postdoc sent me this from outside the building we work in.  They were very excited about the snow!

It actually snowed quite a bit more in other places and just started again.  So much for weather forcasters.  :)

Abby's first restaurant trip

Snow!

Yep. Snow.

St. Louis Pride

Abby is sporting her St. Louis pride today - in preparation for going to meet people at Daddy's work (and meeting Grandma Ina tonight - assuming the outfit lasts that long).

Dancing Abby

 

Abby has been fascinated when Daddy plays guitar.  I managed to catch some of the cuteness on video.

Picture catchup

We finally got some pictures off the camera.  Here are some cute ones:

 

Karl and Britni came to see their new niece at Christmas.  Family portrait!

 

What do we do when she makes that face?!

 

David took a while to get the camera set up.  Wackiness ensued.

 

Abby was also visited in January by Grandma Pauline and Great Aunt Jeanette and Great Uncle Garth.  She even got dressed up in a cute outfit.

 

I think she is trying to make a point...

 

Cute penguins and baby!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Abby talks to Morty

For the last few days Abby has been unhappy on Daddy's lap and we couldn't figure out why.  Tonight he had an inspiration - maybe she took after him and was getting too hot.  So he tried a diaper only configuration and she was perfectly happy again.  Shown here talking to her favorite toy so far, Mortimer the moose.

Tummy time

Abby has been getting much better this week at head control.  She was doing so well I felt the need to tape it - although she was getting tired at the end.  Her next move was an hour-long nap.
