Almost 6 months!

This was my girls view last Saturday as we played outside.  She love being outside, especially at her Nana and Papa's because they have DOGS!!!!  Abby Grace loves her some dogs and can spend a good 30 minutes watching them and trying to get a couple of good handfuls of fur.  She is so sweet these days with her bubble blowing and nose wrinkling. 
She is sitting up so good by herself and yesterday she was on all four's and tried to stand up!  Of course she made it about half way and then face planted, but it's the effort that counts.  My mom says she will be walking by Christmas, Oh My!  I can't believe how fast she is growing and how quickly she catches on to things.  She can now chase you across the house in her walker when she could hardly get the thing moving two weeks ago.  She has also learned how to operate toys at my mom's house that are made for children much older than her thanks to cousin Layla.  If only she could get her hands on that singing chair, you should see the looks she gives that chair, it's gonna be in double trouble soon :)

We play pretty hard these days, especialy right before bed.  I used to just carry her upstairs and lay her down, not anymore.  This girl is smart she knows her room and that her toys are in it.  She scooted across the entire room the other night and across my mom's living room on Monday.  I love that she is gaining some independence, but I don't know that I am ready for the task of having a mover and a groover.

If you see us at the grocery you will get to see a very happy baby.  I took this picture her first time sitting up in the cart and she LOVES it!  I have never heard a child giggle their way through the entire store just because they are sitting up in the buggy.  Such a little cutie pie!

I asked Matt to take this sweet picture so that I can always remember these nights of nestling down before bed time with my sweet girl petting my face.  I want her to know her mommy loved on her everyday and that is why she is such a confident person today (when the day comes of course).

Here's the little terror on wheels...she chases me around the kitchen and bathroom every morning while I get ready. 
I guess that's all I have for tonight, I just wanted to share those few picture and make sure that when Abby Grace looks back she see's that she was loved and growing up so fast!
