Quick Update...

A quick update for those who keep checking...she just rolled over for the first time on her own!!! Twice. From her front to her back. Very exciting!!! She is singing and talking all day long, it gets very noisy around here! Somewhere between a burp rag, elephant, or the tv remote control she keeps herself entertained for quite some time. She is finally interested in her nuk (pacifier) and likes to put in in her mouth, take it out and play with it, then put it back in. She likes to play on the computer with me and sometimes eats the end of the keyboard. Still waiting to see how much she weighs, that is next week though. We are looking forward to introducing solid foods here in the upcoming weeks; I have found a handful of really cute websites with homemade baby food recipes and healthy kids food!

Matt is in Albuquerque this week. :( we miss him. fffffffffff(that is what Abby wanted to tell you, told you she likes to play on the computer.) His job is going well, but he has a lot of people working for him who don't like to be held accountable and therefore he is traveling more than he would like to. It will end soon. They are also starting construction on a new Mexican restaurant in the next couple of months. He has already written the menu, it is super yummy!!!

I am continuing my few days a week at Mastro's, and getting ready to start babysitting a few days a week for a darling 2-yr old. I am excited that Abby will get to play with other children.

Oh, I forgot...we took Abby swimming for the first time fourth of July weekend - she loved it! We went to the nieghbors 2x this week to swim with their girls, 5 and 6. So much fun!

Enjoy the pix.

I LOVE my cute cute niece. She is SO precious. I am excited to see her this weekend. Love the pictures. It's amazing how much she looks like you, especially when you were her age. Not that I was there to see you, but from your pictures. See you on Saturday most likely!!!

Thanks for the update. I DO check in regularly. I am sort of addicted to your blog. I wasn't sure she could get any cuter, but apparently she can. Can't wait to see you all. I hope we can arrange some sort of visit this summer. Maybe in August or September?

I hear she holds conference calls these days? What a VIP!

Give Abby my love...
