Hello Spring!! Well, at least it felt like it yesterday and I love it! It's kind of ugly today but yesterday was beautiful so I'll take it! The Long family is doing wonderful, and we are finally starting to venture out with Abby. I took her to Jess's on Monday, our first outing alone, and it was great to get out of the house. It was so good to see Aidan and Moira(and Jess), even if it was little nerve racking. Moira loves baby dolls, and she thinks Abby is her new baby, so she was literally squeezing and hugging the crap out of her, but it was SO cute! Aidan can't get enough of her, he says "Abby is the cutest baby in the whole world, not Moira"-I love it! It was even cute when Moira decided to blow her nose on Abby's blanket-I'm not sure why she did it, but Jess and I were cracking up. Jess made brownies for dessert and I definitely found some chocolate on Abby's hat when we got home, I guess Moira was playing with that too! We had a great time, and I loved seeing them.

On Tuesday, I took Abby to the eye Dr for a checkup. He said everything looks great, and we go back in July just to make sure everything is still good. I also took Abby out shopping with me, so exciting! And Matt and I decided we wanted to go out to eat so last night we took Abby out to dinner. We went to Cheeseburger in Paradise because I really wanted a pina colada, and we survived. We went early in case it was crowded and Abby didn't cooperate, so we felt like old farts, but it was nice to go out. Abby thankfully slept most of the time, so it was a nice quiet dinner-which I'm sure will be few and far between as she gets bigger. We are just loving being with her, she is starting to smile and coo at us, it's so cute, we can't get enough. Although I'm sure Abby has had enough of the camera! Here are the latest pictures.....

We bought her a mirror with lights and music and she loves it, she's starting to smile at it and of course we had the camera in her face the whole time!

Abby hanging out with Daddy, this is about a half hour ago, it was the first time we put her under this thing with the lights and music and she loved it! She was smiling and cooing, it's amazing to watch her discover everything....
