Happy Halloween (a few weeks late!)

This year Abigail was a witch... Jordan got the idea not long after he got home. He was flying Abby through the house like he would when she was tiny, and they spotted her broom on the floor. He picked it up and proceeded to fly her through the house on her broom!

And, the rest is history...


 Her treat from Aunt Renie... a fun cookie!



 Jordan and Abigail enjoying their treats :)


Yum!!

Flying off into the night!! 
I love how the clock looks like the moon!!

Abby Dabby Party, and other birthday things...


Last weekend was Abigail's 2nd birthday party. This year we decided no big bash, family only. Abigail absolutely loves Sesame Street, so initially we were going to have an Elmo party. Well, Abigail recently began talking about Abby Dabby, so I thought "why not have an Abby Cadabby party instead?". What could be more fun than pink, purple, sparkles and fairies?! I had a lot of fun planning this party ~ it included lots of my favorite things ~ MY Abby, sparkles, pink, fairy wands... sigh! Anyways, her are some photos:

   

Abby Cadaby cake ~ made by my "Aunt" Pam
Cupcakes (whipped icing! from HyVee) with Sesame Street rings
Pink bucket with her "Abby wand"
Abby Cadabby plate for the birthday girl!



Since the party was family only, I made lots of snacks... Jello Jigglers in "A" and "2"!


Abigail's pretty birthday dress, and boa (boa from Grannie Annie and Papa Jim)
Her piggies had pretty purple and pink curls in them, but she pulled them out


 Eating her Abby cake
She wouldn't let anyone touch it! She only picked at the frosting...


Getting ready to go down her new slide! 
We inherited this from our neighbors, and all she wants to do is be outside right now!


Let's backtrack to the day of her birthday... when she woke up daddy made her a special birthday breakfast ~ her favorite! eggs and toast with apple butter!


Yummo!

She got a pretty new baby from Pam...
On the way home from gymbastics (aka gymnastics)


After class she had a giant cupcake ~ just like last year on her birthday.
The whipped frosting was an absolute hit!


I'm pretty sure she liked the icing more than the cupcake!!


So, for now, Happy Birthday baby girl (again and a few days later)... Mommy and Daddy love you!
