Today

Abbey's nine month appointment today....27 1/2 inches and 18.6 pounds. She's 50% now. She hasn't stood again...but I think walking isn't far off!!!

Adam was fine with Uncle Bobby babysitting...didn't even get bothered when I left. Abbey was in a mood from the moment she woke up from her nap. She cried whenever my brother went near her. And at the doctor, she cried whenever I put her down. The doctor said that when she cried, she had the perfect model baby face. it's true. She got a flu shot and I did, too. Even though I hate 'extra' things in my body, after hesitating, I looked at little Abbey and thought...she's too tiny to be so sick...if I can possibly prevent her going through that, than I'll do it. They gave her hers while I held her and then Dr. Liepke held her while I got me. Her whole face wrinkled up...I just wanted to hug her. But...she got over it. And when I got home, Adam couldn't be torn from Mater's Tall Tales to come greet me *sigh* glad he's being independent but it would be nice if I didn't have to pin him down for a squeeze!!

PS And I just blew a bunch of raspberries on her stomach and she cracked up...loved it so much that when I stopped she bent her back back so I'd do it again!!!
