A daughter is the happy memories of the past, the joyful memories of the present, and the hope and promise of the future.

Halloween 2013

Halloween 2013 was so much fun!  We continued our yearly traditions and made a pumpkin princess, carved a pumpkin, went to the pumpkin patch, and went trick-r-treating.  Abbygale was a bumble bee when we went to the Smithville Recreation Center for an evening filled with trick-r-treating and games.  Abby was the cutest kitty cat on Halloween when we went to downtown Bastrop and trick-r-treating in Bastrop subdivisions.  We had so much fun as a family.  Daddy even dressed up as Super Man, which Abbygale absolutely loved.  Happy Halloween 2013!  Until next year....












 

























Abbygale at 26 Months!


Abbygale is my little girl who is so active, silly, and has a huge imagination.  She loves babies, mermaids, horses, kitties, and playing grocery store.  She is so smart and knows her ABC’s and does pretty well at counting to 20.  She talks non-stop and everyday is expanding her vocabulary.  She loves to help do anything and tries to do everything “all by myself” these days.  Her social skills have improved greatly as she wants to be involved in what other kids are doing.  However, she still wants her Mommy close by (there is no denying I still love it)! 
Abby is so tall and beautiful.  She has curly blond hair and loves to play dress up.  She loves to put on make-up, fix hair, and wear cute girly clothing.  She is absolutely gorgeous but even more beautiful on the inside.  She is so sweet, caring, and silly.
She still doesn’t have too much interest in potty training.  Some days she does so well and others days she wants to just wear a diaper and not go to the potty.  She says she’s a "baby today."  However, she knows when she needs her diaper changed so she should really be potty trained.  Mommy needs to stay on top of it!
Abby can be feisty and likes to rough house too!  She is sassy and has so much character. She’s a mess! 
We love Abby so much and have enjoyed more than any words can express each phase of her life.  She went from a baby to a toddler in a blink of an eye but we have enjoyed the ride.  Our life is complete because of you, Abbygale Kate Helford!  We love you to the moon and back and so much more!  XOXO!
