Today's the day that we decided to take the paci from Abby. Isn't it pitiful?
Somehow I got hoodwinked into taking it from her. I was going to wait until she turned 3, but after spending the night with her Aunt Debbie, Daddy decided it was time.
At naptime it only took us 30 minutes for her to calm down and go to sleep. We'll see how bedtime is.
Here's the video of Abby meeting Jake for the first time. I know the video is really dark, but Abby's comments are really what are the best. We're still saying be gentle.
Here's Abby eating her cupcake for her birthday. Please notice that I stripped her down before we set out on this endeavor.
We are currently experiencing the beginning of separation anxiety. My friends who have older children tell me that it only gets more intense from here. Apparently, it reaches its peak somewhere around 18 months of age and diminishes from there.
Abby has also learned how to mimic the sounds she hears. She is quite the ham for the camera, but we did manage to get her grunting with her daddy. She loves her daddy very, very much.
Enjoy.
