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

Abby's First Thanksgiving With The Ingram's

Abby celebrated her first Thanksgiving with the Ingram's on Saturday, November 19, 2011.  We celebrated early because Granny will be in Las Vegas on Thanksgiving with Danny, Melissa, and Drew for Drew's 21st birthday!

We had a great time celebrating with family.  We went to Danny and Melissa's and had all the traditional Thanksgiving food plus chips and dip (an Ingram must-have)!  It was delicious!  Abby can't wait to eat some food next year.  However, Abby enjoyed her yummy milk!

We will celebrate on Thanksgiving Day again with Bryan's family.











Abby's First Wedding

Abby attended her first wedding on Friday, November 18, 2011.  Daddy's friend, Scott Klaus, got married to Carrie.  Daddy was in the wedding so, of course, we were excited to see Daddy all dressed up.  He looked pretty handsome :)

Abby did pretty good overall.  She cried at the beginning of the wedding so we had to slip outside for a little bit until she went to sleep.  However, the rest of the time (and at the reception) she did terrific. 

The wedding was at the Kovar Catholic Church and then we went to the reception for bar-b-que and dancing in Moulton.  We left around 9 pm and Abby slept on the way home.  However, once we got home our little sweet girl was up until 11:30.  She wasn't ready to leave the party--she wanted to dance the night away!!

Abby stole the show since she was just absolutely adorable!!

Cute Curls!

Abby's hair is getting a little curly.  She has this cute curl on the top of her head that has been getting curlier the past few days.  I think her little curls are adorable...I just think she is plum adorable!!



Movin' On Up!

Today is a sad day for Momma Helford as her Little Helford is movin' on up.  Today I boxed up all her baby clothes (newborn and 0-3 month clothing).  We kept a few (very few) 0-3 month winter clothes out to wear one last time before they are boxed up.  She is now wearing 3-6 month clothing at 10 1/2 weeks old.  It was a sad moment for me but Abby kept smiling at me which made it all so much better!!  She is one growing little girl that is sure P-E-R-F-E-C-T!!

Abby's First Halloween

Abby's first Halloween was a success!  She was a-dorable!!  Just absolutely the cutest little girl EVER!  We celebrated Halloween Eve by dressing in Halloween attire and going to the kickball game to watch Aunt Lauri, Cousin Melinda, and Aunt Kristen.  It was a tad bit chilly but we had a good time!  Then on Halloween, Abby got all dressed up and we went to dinner at LaCabana (YUM!) and then did a little trick-r-treating with Cousin Daxton, Melinda, and Becky.  Abby loved being outside in the wagon or being held.  Daxton was such a cutie pie too!  We then visiting with Granny a little bit and then stopped by and saw Sydni and Claire on our way home.  Once we got home we Skyped with PawPaw and MawMaw and Aunt Rikki and Cousin Preston!  Abby had a good, fun first Halloween!  My little angel was just precious in her Halloween tutu; I didn't want to take it off!  Once we got in our pajamas it was a little sad for Momma because Abby's first Halloween was officially over.  The memory is glued in my brain so I will remember it forever because my little baby girl was the prettiest thing on this planet (or any planet for that matter)! 

Mommy and Daddy LOVE our Miss Abbygale Kate!  Mmmm Muouh!
