We have a magnet that has the word "family" cut out of it. I really like it, and so it hangs on the fridge and I put pictures in there. Abi likes it too. She also likes to color on the fridge. (Yes I let her do it...she uses dry erase markers, and it comes off with just a tad bit of elbow grease.) So, she likes to use the magnet as a stencil. One day, she colored the entire thing in. And then, she drew her family underneath it. The picture is labeled accordingly. I think it may have been coincidence that she drew her family, but it was so cute! And, she was so proud.

Abi's Feet
Abi loves, I mean is infatuated with, cameras. She will take pictures of everything. The great part is that she is a great photograper! (I only wish I had some of her skills) She will walk around and take pictures of the TV, the walls, the baby, well, you get the idea. There is however, a trend in all of the little photo shoots she has. For some reason, she HAS to take a picture of her feet. Some of her best shots are the ones of her feet. So, for your enjoyment, I present the best of Abi's feet.

Winter Wonderland
Hold the phones! Stop the presses! It snowed a quarter of an inch in Portland! Cancel everything!!!! Ok, to be honest, I am glad that they cancel everything around here when it snows. (Even church!) For one thing, I hate driving in it, and I hate being cold. It is very pretty though, and I am glad that I get to enjoy from inside!

Cookies!!
Deciding that I needed to spend some quality time with AVD today, we decided (more like I decided, and she consented) to make cookies. She loves to pull up the kitchen chair and help. Sometimes it is hard for me to let her help, like when I need to get dinner on the table in 30 minutes or less, but today is not crazy, the baby was sleeping, and we were both totally relaxed. We made no bake cookies. I would go as far as to say that these are AVD's favorite.

Chips and Lolli-loli
Yesterday, as I was driving through town to pick up some food for my sick husband, I asked AVD what she wanted to eat. She said: "Chips and lolli-loli." Mom translation: Chips and guacamole. This was the first time she had ever tried to say guacamole, and let me tell you I was floored. I was laughing so hard not only because of how she said it, but because I understood her! What makes it even funnier is the fact that she LIKES guacamole and now can ask for it by name....well, sorta.
