This past holiday season was definitely eventful! Abby and I went to visit Grandma and Grandpa in South Dakota! It was great being able to spend that time with the family. The holidays were fun and full of new things. Of course the most exciting was that it was Abby's first Christmas. It was so much fun watching her tear open her presents and watching the confused look on her face when she realized that the toy was in a box and she couldn't play with it. :) It was also great that we were able to talk with Aaron throughout the day. Although it was hard to spend christmas apart for the first time, being able to use skype has definitely made things easier.
Abby was cute as ever!
I don't know who liked Abby's toys more :)
And more exciting news...Abby started walking!!! Yay!!!
Of course we also celebrated Abby's first birthday! Abby and I met with Grandma for a special birthday lunch. She got to wear her new birthday outfit from her great grandma. Her Aunt and Uncle and her cousin came over for her birthday. And the most special was that her daddy was able to see her birthday through the miracle of skype!
