Exciting milestones!

Exciting news....Abigail crossed 2 more milestones off her list!!! Last Tuesday April 9th, our sweet baby girl laughed for the first time!!! It was the sweetest sound! Abigail was sitting in her Rock 'n Play playing with Daddy when Colin asked me how my dinner was... I told him it was delicious. Colin then looked at Abigail and said "It was DELICIOUS" in a funny voice and she started cracking up. This, of course, made Colin and I laugh hysterically! I kept saying "Do it again. Do it again." and every time Abigail bursted out laughing. Yes, I know...definitely one of those "you had to be there" stories, but...We caught it on video, but we have yet to figure out how to download it to the computer:( It's super cute. Just like when Abigail started smiling, she doesn't laugh often. You have to do something pretty spectacular to "earn" a laugh, but when she does...it's definitely worth the effort:)

Awwww....she instantly brightens our day:)

 Second milestone...Abigail can now grasp and hold objects. Before Abigail was able to grasp onto a few things such as hair (lucky me) and necklaces, but never onto toys, stuffed animals or other "baby type" items. She just never expressed an interest. Abigail, like most babies, is way more interested in interacting with us than she is with her toys. I think Colin and I are way more amused by her toys than she is! Last Wednesday, we were playing with her little stuffed animal elephant (it has a cute rattle on it) and I handed it to her and she held on! Now Abigail loves to hold her elephant, doggie and other stuffed animals and of course, stick them in her mouth. She especially loves to suck on their ears:)

Bear getting some love:)

Colin's joke of the day: How does a baby eat an elephant?......

One bite at a time! Haha. That one was ALL Colin!!!

Naked with Binx, Elephant and Daddy...what could be better?!?,

Abigail also loves her musical toys. When I was pregnant, Abigail LOVED music! The church Colin and I go to has a large band and they play lots of fun music...Abigail would go crazy! She would kick and move all about. I always looked forward to Sundays with our little dancer:)

Random, but....some friends of ours gave us a Bumbo yesterday. I'm so excited! I hear the things are great. Abigail is still to young yo use it, but we just had to try it out! These pictures are just so cute we just had to share.

How cute is she?!?

She holds her head up so well!!!

Sitting up while holding onto her elephant...now that is a talent!

Our sweet little girl is growing up!:)
