Abigail's First Yorktown Western Days in the country!

This past weekend we drove down to Nordheim, Texas (Clayton's hometown) to visit family and for Abigail to go to her very first Yorktown Western Days!!! Abigail had such a busy weekend with friends and family that she slept for a full 8 hours on Sunday night without ever changing positions!! Wow, what a tired baby!! She did so many things like attend her first parade outside, sit on a horse, and laughed for the first time with her grandpa. I actually got the first belly laugh on video and I am trying to figure out how to download it to the blog. Mommy and daddy did everything we could to keep out little girl out of the sun on Saturday, but of course she still got some sun to her cheeks and I was beside myself feeling like a terrible mother because you should have seen me use all I could to prevent sunlight to her face (like hold a blanket in front of her stroller as we walked--almost tripping on myself the entire time)

Aside from the sun we all had a wonderful weekend together. Here are some pictures that captured our memories.




Abigail and her daddy on her Great Aunt Andra's horse in the country.



She doesn't know what to think about this horse.



Here is Abigail with her cousin Layne, who is 7 months old. You can tell that they really love each other already and that they will be close cousins.

Abigail is so interested in Layne and vice versa. It is so cute watching them interact and talk to each other as if they know what they are saying.








Abigail with her Grandpa Wisian. He was making pig noises and making her laugh--it was so cute. What a little country baby already--loves those farm animals!



Abigail with her Great-Grandma Wisian--such a sweet moment and memory for our daughter to be with her Great Grandmother.

Mommy and Abigail--I of course have to put the cutest bows and headbands on my little girl before she starts pulling them out.

Another shot of mommy and daughter.

Our beautiful little princess.


I think she had a little too much of Western Days at this point.



Here is Abigail with her grandma getting ready for the parade to start on Saturday morning. It was actually kind of chilly so we had our little girl all bundled up in her denim attire.

Here is a picture of Clayton's aunt and uncle and his little cousins, Hans and Trent.






She was the warmest and best dressed baby out there.










As you can see Abigail is doing great. She keeps her mommy and daddy busy but we wouldn't have it any other way. Being parents is such a blessing and it is amazing how good it feels to wake up and look at your baby every morning. She is growing so fast and learning so many things everyday. Thank you for taking to time to look at our family blog to keep up with how she is doing. We feel honored that you are interested and excited to see Abigail grow. :-)
