Abby the Explorer



Abby is the great explorer- As you can tell from this video- She is getting into anything not bolted to the ground.

She is growing so much and articulating her words so well. Within the last few weeks she has begun speaking "four word combinations"- to quote a very special MiMi-

She knows her routine. For example, as many of you know my mother has been helping us with the girls each afternoon-- She will pick them up from our sitter and bring them to play at her house for about 1 1/2 hours before Dad and I come in from work. Abigail knows this schedule well. I come thru the door and Gramps is right behind me- Abigail is allowed to have Hershey kisses once Gramps comes home- she heads straight to the refrigerator (where the candy stash resides), opens the frig door and grabs a huge hand full of kisses. She then follows Gramps to his room- returning with a chocolate mouth- TOO PRECIOUS!

And Abby dearly loves her baby sister-

Maddox turns 3- Fishing Party

Here are a few pictures from Maddox Moncla's Birthday party! We were all invited to go fishing- Abigail took her fishing pole that Gramps MADE for her. It has pink accents just for his little sweetheart. We had a great time.. as you can tell the cake was incredible. We even got to take home a goldfish- Dorothy (named after Elmo's pet goldfish Dorothy- of course)- Abigail can help in singing "Happy Birthday"- "Happy Day to you, Happy Day to you"--
Abigail 20 months old
Maddox Moncla 3 yrs old
