Finally!


I have been wanting to create a blog for our family for almost 8 months now (since Abby was born). It's amazing how much free time I didn't know that I had before she was born! I wouldn't trade all of the relaxation in the world for her though! And I know that David wouldn't either! We have been lucky this winter because David has been able to stay home with "the pants" (as aunt sissy likes to call her) quite a bit! He worked such long hours during the summer that it is nice for them to spend some time together now and she LOVES being with her Daddy! So by the time I went back to work full time, David was off more. It worked out perfectly. However, this week David has been back to work (leaving the house at 5am) so we have had to get back into our crazy morning schedule. Abby and I leave by 6AM to get to gramma Julies by 6:30. I HATE waking her up when she loks so cozy, but she always gives me a smile in the morning no matter what. Really if it were up to Abby she would never sleep anyways. She has too much to do all of the time - or at least that is how she acts! She has been crawling, sitting up and pulling herself up since January 12th (gramma nan's b-day) and being the brave women that she is her new thing is to let go of whatever she is holding on to and try to balance on her own. She really wants to walk! Other than our days revolving around work and Abby I don't have too much to report. I finally found a gym that I like and I have been going either on my lunch or after Abby is in bed (or both). I feel so much better when I work out and I have finally figured out how to do it without missing any abby time! I better get back to work. I will try to keep this blog up to date!
