Caricature

June 28th, 2007

I had no idea that Abi was going to caricature Rich and in such amusing ways. She copies so much of what we do and say it’s scary. I don’t need to tell her off very often as she does it herself, she also praises herself. If she says “please” she then follows it with [...]

Pink Bip bops

June 6th, 2007

Abi’s favorite thing is talking, I wonder who she gets that from? At the moment every colour she sees she calls pink, she obviously lives in a very pink world. Her second favorite thing is shoes,especially bip bops (flip flops) she constantly takes them off the shoe rack in the hall and re-arranges them. trying [...]

As a Christian I wonder where the word pride comes into my life, but when I think of Abi my heart swells with pride as I see this bundle of joy make 20 months old. She walks and talks and makes sentences. She has started to say things like love you Daddy/Mummy. She says, “Amen” [...]

Skimming Stones

March 17th, 2007

We’ve been beach today and Abi decided to try and skim stones like the grown ups. She found a nice stone and mastered swinging her arm but couldn’t quite work out how to let it go.
She had a very serious look of concentration on her face is she practiced.

Christmas

January 11th, 2007

It’s a bit late but Abi had a wonderful christmas she loved playing with tinsel and all the lights everywhere. She also really enjoyed the wrapping paper which she tore off tiny piece by tiny piece and pased to someone to dispose off. I think we have quite a neat little girl. But will it [...]
