It won't be long....

Sorry the video is so dark, but look at her up and rocking! Not going to be long now before she's on the move. And might I just comment that she has quite a cute little butt!

A Time to be Sick...

And, my final post for today, is just an update on butter butt. She's gone from my happy smiley child to a clingy whiny one, but really, that's how I feel too, so I can't be upset with her. She's still having intermittent fevers but tylenol seems to help, and she's back taking milk again instead of pedialyte for the most part. I truly think she has parvovirus, but she's well hydrated so there's not a whole lot to do right now. We've had a bonding weekending lying on the couch together watching Planet Earth. And yes, it's my fault she's sick, I have no doubt that I brought goobers home from the hospital.

Daddy time

As I mentioned a couple of posts ago, Abby and Dave have been spending lots of time together this month. Here's how I caught them this past week when I got home from work.... bonding in their underroos.

The newest DeLeon...

No, we're not pregnant again! But Dave's brother Richard and his wife Rosie welcomed their first biological child, Richard Jr, on Wednesday September 24th at 4:06pm. He joins his big sister Rie, who is about 4 months old. We're looking forward to visiting the farm at the end of October and see everyone. My in laws have gone from no grandbabies to 3 in 6 months!

The Laughing Bug.....

The video says it all......

Love you all!!

Long Time No Talk

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I'm unfortunately back on wards, and while that means I'm curing sick kids from across Oklahoma, I haven't spent very much time with my own little one. Which also means Dave's been on Daddy duty for the past week. I think it's been good for him to see what all I do on a regular basis...the laundry doesn't magically get done, the fairies don't wash Abby's bottles every night. But he took good care of her and I think it was a good bonding time for them. And THIS is what I found on the camera today.....

Maybe I need to rethink "good" care. And, needless to say, her toes have been thoroughly cleaned!

Our newest developments...

Watch out. This is going to be a long one.

So, for starters....look what I finally caught on tape!!

Go Abby!

And from yesterday..... can you believe she's FIVE months old? I sure can't. This past weekend was one year from when we told our families we we're expecting, and now she's here and rolling and talking.....it's unbelievable. She amazes me every day, and I'm so thankful that I was chosen to be her mother.

And then after she tried to eat her sign......it apparently didn't taste very good!

And finally, in breaking news tonight, September 3rd....we have baby food!

Yummy in her tummy!! By the way, it was sweet potatoes in case you couldn't tell!

Happy Labor Day!

Dave and I both had the day off....together....24 whole hours....did I say together? We enjoyed waking up with Abby this morning and getting to spend our morning hours together. She and Daddy shared secrets this morning (pretty rare....usually she only likes to talk to me!)

We spent the afternoon and MeMe and Papa's with some family friends, and then Abby and I took a swim. Dave went shooting and started mowing the yard when he got home. He just finished (it's 9 pm and dark), but my oh so inventive husband finished the backyard ghetto style.

Yep, that's my MD hubby. Mowing the yard with a flashlight. And, yep, I'd marry him again!
