All About Abigale

Since my crazy little girl is turning 3 1/2 this week, I thought it was time to dedicate this blog all to Abigale (and for my personal records). Abigale can still be the sweetest girl in the world as long as she has had enough sleep and food (She gets that from me). She loves playing with Lydia and making her laugh and still loves all animals. She especially loves cats and dogs and if she sees one she has to pet it.
Abigale picks up on things quickly. She knows all her ABC's and has for quite awhile. She knows the sounds of all the letters and is starting to put words together. She can write almost any word but especially loves to write her name. We are working on the Articles of Faith and she has the first 6 memorized but will usually only repeat them in front of her parents. She loves going to preschool and can't wait to tell me what she learned when she gets home. She did not like nursery very much at all but she loves Sunbeams! The Primary gave us a cd of the songs they are learning ths year and she loves to listen to them in the car- Follow the Prophet is her favorite.
Abigale is still very shy but once she gets to know someone and feels comfortable she is just fine. She loves playing with her friends and asks every day if they can come over.
She still loves music and singing and dancing. Everyday we have to get the Princess dresses out and her and Lydia put them on and dance to the Disney songs. She has them all memorized and loves to make up dances. (I cant wait to get her in dance lessons because I know she will love it- just have to find a good teacher). Every week she has a favorite Disney movie. This week it is Alice in Wonderland last week it was Peter Pan and she always loves Little Mermaid and of course Dora.
Abigale's mind is an alarm clock. It does not matter what time she goes to bed she will wake up at 7:00 every morning. I usually get her a bowl of cereal, put on a movie and either go back to bed or if I am motivated- work out. She still takes a nap almost everyday which she does not like but still needs!
Abigale loves to help out and gets very excited when we give her a job or a project. She is really into helping me cook and anything with Daddy outside. She gets very frustrated when I am doing a project-like sewing- and she can not help. She is also at the "why" stage. She probably asks "why" 50 times a day. I guess she is still trying to figure everything out.
Sorry this was so boring for those of you that actually read it but I just wanted to get everything down so that I could remember everything about her right now.

I love Abigail - she's my super buddy.

Just so you know, a very good friend of mine that lives on Eagle and McMillan is a dance teacher for little kids. She was a big dancer growing up and I believe does a fantastic job. If you're interested, I'll hook you guys up.

What a cutie! Kjersten's favorite question is also "why." That's great that she knows all her letters. She seems a very sweet girl, when well fed. :)
