Two Fiesty Girls!




Well, there is not much going on in terms of excitement, but I thought I should update. First of all, Abby is a fighter. It is not going to be as easy of a fix as I had hoped. She hates her medicine and we literally have to force it down her. We have tried mixing it in different juices and even chocolate milk, but she soon figures out that it is medicine and starts the fight that often ends with most of the medicine down the front of her.




She hides in her highchair by turning around and putting her head so that neither food nor cup is accessible. She now knows how to say "mama" and "Dada". She makes me feel guilty because when we are trying to feed her, she cries out "mama" in the most pitiful voice and I feel horrible. She never calls out Dada, only mama. She may be small, but she has a lot of spunk and fire.


Ellie is teaching Abby alot because she is also very spunky and at times defiant. She has been sick with a stomach bug and was up all last night in the bathroom. She has finally given up and gone to sleep.

We have our house up for sale because we are attempting to move to Boise, Idaho for an adventure with Will's job, but the market is not that favorable. Pretty soon, if we do not get an offer we are going to take our house off the market and paint and do some projects and then maybe put it back up for sale in the spring time.

The pic of Abby in her high chair-even though we can't see her face, that pic is the most adorable thing I've ever seen. It is so cute, I had to laugh when I saw it. And then the "mother" part of me kicks in and I'm crying for you. It's frustrating sometimes, isn't it? Also, good luck with the house! What is Will going to do up there?
