Who is Abi?

I usually do not say much about Abi’s cognitive development.  Here are a few random thoughts:

• Everywhere she goes, she makes friends.  People love looking at her, smiling at her in response to her smiles, etc.  They unfortunately love touching her too – I am really tempted to carry around an insect wacker, and wack strangers who can’t keep their paws to themselves (think cold & flu season, people).
• Abi loves music.  Her particular favorite songs are “The wheels on the bus”, “If you’re happy & you know it”, and she also like the alphabet song.
• She loves to explore, whether it involves trying to climb out of her bathtub or well, see the second post below, she wants to touch and look at everything.  She is a real observer, just like Daddy.
• She can now say “ma ma”.
• She hates wearing socks, and will take off socks within about 15 minutes being dressed in them. Fortunately, we found a solution to this problem (Robeez shoes).
• She loves solid food, and is making great strides in swallowing food in her mouth.  We recently bought a food mill, and so her palate will get some treats.
