Happy First 4th of July!

Abby celebrated the 4th in style thinking of her Daddy the Hero all day!

Grandma Donohue!

Grandma Donohue came to visit! She got to meet her third grandchild and give her daughter a break! I was actually enjoying passing Abby to Grandma so I could clean. I never though dusting would be fun! Nick would love to hear that! Abby enjoyed meeting her Grandma and getting fed by her at crazy hours...she even showed Grandma how fussy she could be in the afternoons! BUT Grandma still enjoyed spoiling her!!! Abby got a new bouncy chair!!!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DADDY!!

Abby & I wish Daddy the best father's day and want you to know your gift will be mailed on Monday!!

WE LOVE YOU!!

This morning Abby made a successful grocery trip with mommy. That means we slept and mom had no lines and everything we needed was there and we got no extras...YEAH! We got to hear from Nick yesterday night on the computer and he is doing good. We hope to hear from him again becuase it is always good to know that he is alright...Abby's second cousins came for a visit this weekend. Everyone got to hold her and she enjoyed it completely. Poor Great Uncle Ed (makes him sound old don't you think??) didn't get hold her until yesterday becuase the girls hogged her. Another week starts and I am sure more fun will come with it!!

Today was not a fun day. Nick had to leave to go back to Iraq. It was kind of neat to see people tell us how beautiful our daughter was - becuase you know you have stared at babies before and thought how cute they were. This time it was our daughter. We have a daughter. People also stopped to thank Nick and that always brings a tear to my eye becuase you never hear about the support the troops actually get, but it is out there. When they call Nick's zone to board the plane he handed me Abby and kissed her and me a couple times before he walked to the gate. After they checked his ticket he turned back and waved...Abby knows something is different as she was very fussy and wanted to cry if I put her down today. She just wanted to be held and I don't think I was the one she wanted to be held by. We love you Daddy - Come home safe...
