just a few things i want to jot down....

abby laughs so hard at mia mao (on baby tv) now. it's so funny.  she just loves the show! she always liked it, but now she actually laughs at the antics of the two cats who are the "stars" of the show. so cute!


maria says on their walk, they walk by a house that has a windmill, and abby just loves this windmill and reaches out to touch it, and screams when they walk away from it!


i got abby her first pair of shoes yesterday.  i wasn't going to go to stride rite (expensive!) but then i decided to just spend the extra money to make sure she has a good shoe for her foot development & i also needed to make sure she had an accurate measurement b/c i had a suspicion she had a wide foot......and she does! she is a 4 1/2 W currently. 

i was at the outlets in rosemont, so my choices were a bit more limited than in a real store, but i found a pair of t-strap hello kitty shoes that are meant for babies who are not walking yet, but learning to walk, and  the first five months of walking.   i was hoping to get a pair that were more like a gym shoe, but i guess it ultimately won't matter b/c she will probably outgrow this pair by December anyway.  they were $40!! so i will save them and hope that someone else can use them down the line or sell them at some point.
