3 Weeks Old

Abigail is now 3 weeks old - crazy how time flies when you are totally in love with a little sweet girl like her!

This past week has been so much fun - sorry for not making any posts, but we were busy!!

Labor Day weekend Matt's parents came to spend some time with us and snuggle with Abigail.  It was great to share her with them - they both agree that she has grown since they last saw her.  It was a nice weekend of relaxing, watching the Badger football game and Brewer game, and spending time together.  Abigail even ventured out to her first sit down meal at a local Mexican restaurant.

Matt started school on Tuesday so he has been back to the "real world" for a few days now.  I think he misses his little girl, so it is nice to have him home after school.

My mom came up for the week - which was wonderful.  We did some shopping at the mall and some other stores, made cookies, cleaned up the house, took lots of walks, a few loads of laundry, and just had a great time.  Time always seems to fly by when we are together - but we made sure that she got to spend lots of time holding and snuggling with Abigail.  She was a huge help with my little girl - not to mention she had a great time picking out clothes/outfits for the day and spending the first few minutes with her when she woke up every morning.  My mom changed lots of diapers and gave Abigail 2 baths - and she loved every minute of it!  I loved every minute that we got to spend together and am so glad that she got to spend this much time with Abigail when she is so young.

This next week I will be taking Abigail and Koda on our first solo, long road trip.  We are going to spend a few days over by my parents.  Really wish Matt could come along - we will all miss him while we are gone.

This weekend Matt and I are home and I don't think we have much planned other than mowing lawn and some other minor household chores.  I am betting that Matt will spend lots of time with his little girl - especially before they are apart next week.

As for changes in Abigail - there have been lots of them in the last week or so.  Here are some of the major ones:
-She follows voices or noises and wants to see where they are coming from.
-Loves to watch Koda or any of the dogs in the house when they play
-Is awake for hours at a time, just looking around and moving
-Is a super strong kicker!!!
-Talks lots, even in her sleep!!
-Wants to be moving or sitting up - still is not a fan of laying flat!
-Seems to want to roll over when we try to change her diaper.
-Puts up with tummy time for a while, but then voices her dislike.

So, now onto the pictures - here are some from the last week....enjoy!
