Caroline Loves to HIDE

One of Caroline's favorite things to do has always been to hide.  David has always asked over and over where she is until he "finds" her.  He recently started saying things like, "is she outside?" or "is she under the table?" and Caroline has started answering.  In this video, she is hiding just beside me under the blanket and answering as to where she isn't hiding.  It's too cute!

What we did on 11/11/11

David's parents came into town EARLY this morning for a visit and we decided to head to Raleigh for the day.
We started with eating at The Pit

David had heard that they had a new interactive exhibit that he thought Caroline might enjoy. 
We headed back to Rocky Mount after that and ate at a local restaurant, La Mama's Pizza and on to the new Pit Stoppe frozen yogurt shop which we LOVE!

We had a GREAT day and here are a few pictures for you to enjoy!



This tree was apparently very interesting to Abigail.  She just kept staring at it.


Caroline enjoying experiencing the exhibits hand-on!



The Pirate's Treasure Chest



She LOVED the eggs, but they were "stuck"!


Pops & Abigail


She loved pushing these buttons.  There was a train that "performed" when you pushed the buttons and she wanted to push it over and over.



Oh no!  A turpentine spill!  Caroline did not want to get near it.  My girl is definitely a girlie girl!  We finally convinced her that it was fine.  She kept saying, "a mess, a mess!"



I liked this sign ;)



Turning the wheel for furniture making


Grammy & Abigail


Caroline just loved these leaves!  I think I got a few really good pictures of Pops & Caroline playing in the leaves!




This is what the back of the car looked like on the way home.  You can't see her, but Abigail joined in this group as well. 

HERE is a video Caroline is going to love me for later.  She has been a little sick and was snoring so loudly that I had to video it!

Abigail loves her animals!

Abigail has animals hanging from a bar on her bouncy seat.  She has started trying to grab onto them and it is so cute!

Here and here are 2 videos of her doing this.

Abigail is 3 Months Old

Abigail is still a great sleeper!  She goes back to sleep about 1.5 hours after she wakes up during the day.  I am still feeding her once in the night most nights, but every once in a while, she doesn't wake for a feeding at all. 

She smiles all the time and I caught a few smiles in these pictures!

She is really starting to notice and grab at things so much more. 

She loves to see our faces and instantly calms down when she sees our faces when we come to get her after a nap.

She loves her big sister.  She loves it when Caroline sits and plays with her.

She enjoys when you sing to her, but you can't get too loud because she doesn't like it and often cries.

She is such a joy and we can even get a few giggles out of her now and then.

Abigail, I am so blessed to be your Mommy!  You light up my life each and every day and I am so glad the Lord blessed me with you as my daughter!  I love you!!!

Out of the mouths of babes

Caroline just said something that I had to record.

The conversation went like this:

Caroline:  "Can I ask you a question?"

Me:  "Sure!"

Caroline:  "Do you love me?"

Me:  "Of course, I love you!"

Caroline:  "Awe, thank you, Mommy!  That's so sweet!"

I tell you, this girl can just melt my heart!!!

I love you, sweet Caroline!!!
