abby is getting so big these days! it seems like every time we turn around she is doing something new or has developed a new skill!

the most recent development is that she can laugh!! the laugh is still pretty elusive...she smiles a TON now but it's harder to make her laugh for sure.  she was really cracking up over the weekend b/c we were standing her up on her feet (supporting her under the arms) and making her dance and she thought it was just the funniest thing!!

she is also starting to reach & grab things now, esp the toys on her baby activity gym.  she really grips them! we are going to have to be careful so she doesn't pull the whole thing down on herself or move them up to the higher rings.

she is such a happy girl.  when i go in her room in the morning, she is just laying in her crib waiting for someone to come get her....and when you lean over she smiles so big! it's so cute!

when we change her, she is totally fascinated by the butterfly decals on the wall & this arch thing that goes over the changing table with dangling flowers & butterflies. she *loves* when you shake them up for her!

next week we start bringing her to grandma's house during the day while we are at work. hoping it doesn't throw off her schedule too much!
