I love to see the temple.

Earlier this week Mike and I decided to go to the temple, sometime during the week. We chose today. We planned to get up early and go to one of the first sessions. So I got a baby-sitter lined up and went to bed last night planning on Mike's alarm to wake us. But we slept in. I woke up right before 8 (I know to some people this is not sleeping in. But ever since Abigail was born it is sleeping in to me.) I was like oh no. So I got up still half to sleep went into the bathroom, and didn't realize Mike left the toilet seat up last night. So yes I almost fell into the toilet, my hips are bigger now after having Abigail that they hit the toilet. I am suprised I didn't bruise. I then woke up Mike and got dressed. I had to wake up Abigail, and get her fed. We got ready pretty quickly. Dropped Abigail off and were off to the temple. On the way there we decided to only do sealings today. We both have never done them before. Other than the time we were married. It was a very neat experience. To be able to hear the words of the sealing again. To remember that I made those covenants about 2 years ago with my eternal companion who I love very much. After the temple we went and picked up Abigail. My sister-in-law who was watching her said that Abigail was reall good for her this time. The last time that she baby-sat Abigail gave her a very hard time. Here's the story....That night we went to Mike's work christmas party. I left Abigail with a bottle and solids. She wouldn't eat anything and just cried. My sister in law was 8 months pregnant at the time on her 5th kid. She had to call me and have us come. As soon as Abigail saw us she was happy and playing again. My sister in law baby sits a lot of kids and she said that Abigail was the first one that ever cried and wouldn't stop.
I have decided that Mike and I need to try to go to the temple at least once a month. The last time we went before this time was before Abigail was born. My sister in law said she would baby sit any time we want to go. I told her I would do the same. She was like "all 5 kids?????"

Busy day

So I have had a busy day today. First thing when I got up Mike and I went and looked at an apartment in American Fork. We were going to wait until May to move, but we saw this place and wanted to check it out. Its really nice and only 100 dollars more a month then we are paying now. It is a 3 bedroom. So that will be better. It also has new flooring. After we saw the place we decided to apply to get the place. So we had to put a 30 day notice for the place we live now. So if we don't get it we will have to try to find another place. After we applyed we came home fed Abigail and tried to get things done. I needed the car today, so I had to take Mike to work. Luckily Abigail took a nap in the car. I then had to go to my moms office and have her sign some paper work for me. She had to take Abigail around and show her off. I then had to go to an appointment. We just got home and Abigail was really tired. She went right down for a nap. I still have one more thing to do, but I think I will go on my way to pick Mike up from work. I just hope we get the new apartment.

Enrichment

Tonight I had enrichment in my ward. It was by far the most laid back one I have ever been to. I went we had dinner and visited and that was it. I had fun visiting with the ladies that were on my table. We were talking about child birth and babies. Abigail was also really good. She just sat there and played. I think she wanted to get down and run with the other kids that were there. I like this ward and I am going to be sad when we move. I just know that it will be better for us to move. Especially if we get closer to Mike's work.
I got Abigail's pictures back today, they are so cute. Now I need to decide which ones to send to Mike's work. I like them all, so I will let him decide. While Abigail was napping today, I put Abigail's pictures in frames. I put them on the floor and started to do other things so I forgot about them. Anyway after I got home from enrichment Abigail was on the floor playing. I left the room for a little bit and when I came back in the room Abigail had them all spread out and was smiling and talking to them. It was so cute.

Cable wire

So we have a cable wire and a speaker wire against our wall. It is Abigail's goal to get to the wire and eat them. Every time she gets to them I pick her up and tell her not to eat them. The one good things about it, is that she has learned how to scoot to them. It looks like she is doing an army crawl basically. We have finally had to cover the wires up so she can't see them, but she still knows that they are there, so tries to move the objects that are on top of them.
The other thing that Abigail has learned this weekend is how to click her tongue. She goes around doing it a lot now. I can't believe how fast they grow up and learn things, it is so cute.
Oh and her chicken pox are better now, we are just waiting for the last of the scabs to go away, but she can go out and play again.

new things

So in the past couple of days I have learned a few new things about Abigail, and she has learned a few new things. I have learned of a few things that Abigail is afraid of. Last week Mike was using our shredder. Abigail was happily playing on the floor until he put the first paper in. She made a whimpering noise. We didn't think much of it. So he started to shread more peper and she started screaming. So I picked her up, that didn't even help her we had to go out of the room. So she couldn't hear it at all. Then yesterday Abigail was happily eating lunch. Mike came into the kitchen to blow his nose. She stopped eating, looked at him sad. Then he blew it one more time and she stared screaming. Food was coming out of her mouth, and she just wanted out of her high chair. I pulled her out and hugged her. She was fine a short time later.
So what Abigail learned. Yesterday Mike had two of his brothers over to play Rock Band. Abigail and I were just sitting there listening to them play. When Abigail started clapping her hands and whats the coolest part of it, she was really close to the beat. I was so excited to see this. At first she would stop when any of the guys looked at her, but soon she did it for them too. The rest of the night she was clapping her hands.

Abigail

Eating

Yesterday I felt like Abigail wouldn't stop eating. About every two hours she got hungry. Today is the opposite. She ate a few bites of cereal for breakfast, then grabbed the bowl and dumped it all over herself and her tray. That was about 6:30 about 10:30 I tried to give her a bottle she drank two ounces and then was done. About 12:30 she ate a few bites of her solids then started screaming. So I tried to give her a bottle again 2 ounces. She took a two hour nap after that. So I thought maybe she will be hungry when she wakes up. About 3 I tried to give her a bottle not even 2 ounces. Maybe it is because she is sick. Who knows. She is starting to look a lot better. The spots seem like some of them are dissappering. I talked to the doctor office and they say she isn't contagious after all of the spots scab over, which I think we are almost to that point. I hope she will feel better soon, so we can go out and do things again.

Sorry it took so long to add these pictures.

Chicken pox

I took a couple of pictures chicken pox today. She has it the worse on her head and bum. I don't thinl they are bugging her to bad yet. Today is the first day that she has started acting cranky. I hope she gets better soon. At least by Sunday. My new nephew is being blessed that day.

Sick Baby

Abigail is sick. Thursday night I noticed that she had some bumps on her head. I thought that maybe she got bit by a bug. But the next morning she had more. We discovered she has chicken pox. My mom had Shingles and played with her. Poor little girl. It just makes me itch because of all of her bumps.
