Abby and the Scale

Abby had her first visit to the doctors office on Monday. The nurse told us to get her naked and we laughingly asked if she was sure thats what she really wanted. I don't know if you have heard or not but Abby can scream with the best of them. Much to our surprise, Abby did not make a peep the entire time. She did however make a pee and poo on the scale. So daddy had to take care of the clean up. She also found out how beautiful she is. She located the mirror on the wall and didn't stop staring until we picked her up to go home. The good news is that her doctor says she is a perfectly healthy little girl. Her weight is the same as when we left the hospital and her jaundice is at a normal level. The doctor also said she had wonderful features and was very well put together. He ventured a guess that she looked just like her daddy when he was a baby but Kristen and I still can't decide who she looks most alike. I think she looks just like her mommy. I think it's safe to say she has a good mixture of both of us. We are hopeful that she only got the good parts from us. We found out last night that she definitley inherited our tempers. It was a long night to say the least.
Abby also took her first stroller ride yesterday. She absolutely loves her car seat and stroller. She goes right to sleep everytime. While we were walking with her stroller yesterday she would throw her hands up everytime we would go over a bump in the sidewalk. It was pretty funny.
That's how I "stroll"
Abby got to meet her two cousins Megan and Christian last night to!! Megan promised to teach her all sorts of fun things like getting daddy to give you a piggy back ride and how to annoy her Uncle Brandon.
