Part of the Jersey trip was a visit to "Auntie Gwen & Uncle Tony's" house to see them and play with one of her first BBF's Liam...the first boy to ever kiss her - yeah, it's cute now but not so much when she's 13 and he's 15 - then we're going to have to have a little chat! So on Sunday we stopped to see them and had a mini birthday party to celebrate Liam turning 3 on July 7th and Abbey's pending 1st birthday. The kids exchanged gifts as the adults shared parenting stories some good, some funny some that would bring tears to your eyes!
Abbey's gift came in perfect time, as soon as we got home Sunday night we couldn't pry her hands from it...and around the house she goes every waking hour these days...to say we LOVE our gift would be an understatement...and to say Mommy loves the fact that I no longer have to hold two little hands as she makes laps around the dinning room table all afternoon is also an understatement! I prefer to sit back and watch her enjoy her independence.
As much as I prefer the "non-mobile" version, I love to see her growing and doing new things too so I'm trying to balance the array of emotions about all her advancements. For now, I'll clap and be a cheerleader.
