Abbi is 2!!!!

HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY ABBI!!

So, Abbi turned two at the beginning of this month. We celebrated her birthday with family. Abbi was so overwhelmed with the gift opening and cake but loved every minute of it.

I thought I would do a quick update on Abbi since it has been awhile. She just went to the doctor for her two year old check up and everything was fine. She stayed at the 50th %tile for weight but dropped a bit for height...must be from the Ulmer side (haha). She now weighs in at a whopping 27lbs. Abbi has definately become a sponge when it has come to new words. She loves repeating everything you tell her and will constantly ask "what's that" or "I see a ____" when she recognizes something familiar. She is talking constantly and will now talk a bit more on the phone with people she recognizes. She is still not the greatest sleeper but is starting to sleep in a bit longer than 6:30 am. As for toilet training...she was very eager before we went to Mexico but we decided to hold off as it would be difficult to continue while on holidays. Anyways, when we came back she was not interested. I have a few days off right now and we have slowly working back into it. Today we went 4 times on the potty but she is not telling me when yet. Oh well...here's hoping!!!

I am now 29 weeks along now and will hopefully post a pic of the "bump" soon. I am feeling great especially now that I have my sling off. I have to start physio for my shoulder and hope to have more movement out of it by the time I have deliver. Abbi and Tyler have been a huge help while I have been recovering. Other than that the pregnancy is going very well...knock on wood! The baby is very active...especially at night time. I don't remember Abbi being this active...I hope this isn't a sign!

We are busy trying to get Abbi's bedroom done. Tyler had strep throat last week so he wasn't able to work on it at all but we are hoping to get further along this weekend. We are still finishing up the basement. There are all the last minute jobs to get done that never seem that important but will make a big difference in the end.

Enjoy some pictures taken at Abbi's birthday!
