September....really?

Oh, how the time flies! I can not believe it is September and our little girl will be ONE YEAR old very soon. In fact, on my "to-do" list this week I have to plan her birthday party and get all the invites out. Wow! It has just flown by.

We are having a great time with this little angel. She does so many new things every day.

*She pulled up on the side of the crib about a week ago.

*Her favorite word is....not mama (unless she is hungry)...not dada (unless she wants to play) no...it is DOG! heehee...except she says it like....dawg with her little lips in the shape of an O. Pretty hilarious!

*She army crawls everywhere.

*She loves to stand up (with our assistance of course)

*The girl loves, loves, loves...to eat! Pretty much anything you put in front of her in small bits she will eat. In fact, if you don't feed her fast enough she will let you know about it. We are working on her patience and manners too. :)

*She loves to play in the water: bath, lake, swimming pool, wherever! That has been so much fun this summer.

*She has 3 teeth and the two incisors on top are coming in any day now. Yep, not the top front but the ones on the sides. umm..yep..too funny.

We had an eventful week this past week. Abigail and I got a group together to volunteer for our adoption agencies fundraiser in October. We were in charge of putting the invitations together. Six of our friends showed up to help us. It always amazes me how people come together to help. Wow...how God puts us together in each others lives.

Abigail will be one of the stars in this years fundraiser/celebration. All the sweet babies that were adopted last year will be announced at this years event. We will definitely be shopping for a new dress for the occasion. :) The 3 of us were also photographed for our local Waco Today Magazine and will tell a short story of our adoption. For more information on the Generations Adoption Fundraiser...Hope Gala..you can visit their website. The link is on our blog page.

In celebration of labor day, my parents and grandparents came up for a visit. It was a great time. Abigail is such a blessing and it is always a reminder of how blessed we are when we see her interact with her grandparents. So much laughter and so many smiles!

Another day is passed and i am so thankful for the gift God has given us. So tuned for more updates and hopefully videos!

To God alone be the glory,

Jenny
