Go, Go, Go!

That is how I've felt in the last week and it's not going to stop anytime soon!  I'm so glad Abby is having so much fun even though I'm beat.  :)  Here are a few highlights since last Tuesday.

As some of you may know already, the Baldwin's are moving to Perth really soon so Abby and I stopped by one day for a playdate.  We're going to miss seeing the 2 cousins play and grow up together and I'm going to miss my cute little nephew so I had to get a picture of the 2 of us.  Isn't he the cutest?

This may not mean a lot to other people but I thought it was so sweet they were playing and their feet touched for quite a while.  I have a weakness for chubby little feetsies!

An attempt at a hug.  Seconds after this, Elliott pushed Abby away.  :)  I think she was in his personal space.

Elliott really wanted to eat Abby's pretend sandwich - yum!

We've been having some work done around the house and the most exciting new addition is Abby's new closet doors!  Her previous accordian doors were all out of alignment so she absolutely loves these doors now!  The next step is to add some elfa shelves when they go on sale in December again.  I can't wait!

I decided to try giving Abby cereal.  Nope.  She later requested Cheerios "with no milk please Mommy!"

As I mentioned before, Bryce recently got a smoker and he smoked his first brisket (and pork butt underneath) and it was a resounding SUCCESS!  In a mere 10 hours, this beautiful 11 pounds of meat transformed into...

...delicious, edible this!  I'd hate to toot my own husband's horn but this is Bryce's BEST "first shot at making something" yet.  I forsee this at a future game watching party for sure!

Today Lao Yie, Abby and I spent the morning at the Children's Museum and Abby had a blast!  I just love this smile.  :)

Shopping in the HEB in Kidtropolis.  Can't forget the cheese!

Checking out.  :)

Short order cook.

Eating at the Diner with Lao Yie.  :)

Lao Yie got Abby a toddler sized watering can and so she was really looking forward to "jao sui" all day!

My parents get a nice breeze in their backyard so Abby decided to just chill.

Then she heard the ducks across the pond and had to investigate.  What a great day!
