Easter!

Posted by Blair Bagley at 8:41 PM 1 comments

We had a wonderful Easter with our sweet little Abigail. We took special Easter pictures the week before which was a lot of fun.She had an adorable green plaid skirt that I thought was perfect for her first Easter.

Easter weekend we had the traditional Easter egg hunt in a very untraditional way. We spread plastic eggs all over the living room and showed Abby where they were. I then showed her that the eggs needed to go into the basket...and that's all it took. She started to crawl all over the living room, picking up an egg...putting it into her mouth and then turning around to find her dad dilligently following her with a basket and then she plopped it into the basket. She proceeded to do this until all the eggs were in the basket. I was very impressed!


It was really a fabulous weekend!

Family Updates

Well it certainly has been a few weeks since we last posted. Things have been very busy, I took the GMAT a couple of weeks ago and scored a 650 out of 800. I'm pretty pleased. But we still have to wait another month or so until we find out about admission. I guess I'm just going to have to learn some patience.

I also started my own blog at the request of Blair. She was tired of my soap-box rants and wanted me to find another outlet for my random nerdiness. So, I did. If you do decide to visit it, remember, it is likely to be a little nerdy, but that should be expected from someone like me.

Abby is cruising all over everywhere. If she didn't enjoy the security of balancing herself on the side of the couch or the wall so much I'm fairly confident that she'd be walking everywhere she went. We played in the backyard yesterday and she held a couple of my fingers while we walked all around. She pulled me around the yard as if she wanted to show me this great place to play that I had never seen before. Actually she has been wanting to play outside quite a bit lately. Unfortunately for her it's been raining (and even snowed today) which puts somewhat of a damper (ahem) on her playing.

That's it for now, we'll post more when we find out about grad school etc.

Sunday in the Park with Abby

Posted by Blair Bagley at 8:57 PM 3 comments

Last Sunday was a beautiful day, so we decided to go to the park after church. It was a blast! This was Abby's first time ever playing at the park. We went on the swings first. She was somewhat used to this since we have an infant swing at home...but that does not swing high.

She LOVED the swing. Kevin kept pushing her higher and higher...giggles and peels of laughter.

We had a lot of fun hanging Abby off of random toys.

She did pretty well just hanging on some herself too.

Abby on the Farm...

Posted by Blair Bagley at 8:19 PM 2 comments

Last Thursday on our weekly excursions with Johanna and Clark we went to the working farm at Thanksgiving Point. It was so much fun! We began looking at the sheep and then to the goats.

Apparently Abby does not like the goats at all. She began screaming with fear when a large brown one can up to her. I have never heard her scream like that! We quickly moved on to the birds. She loved watching the peacocks, chickens, and turkeys.( It must be because of her Grandpa!) We then saw the ponies and thought Clark and Abby would love to ride. As soon as I got close to the ponies to put her one, she started screaming. I have never heard her scream with such purpose! She did not want to be near the ponies at all, but I had the goats. to get a picture...

Clark on the other hand loved the ponies. He got on the saddle, sat up, grabbed on and smiled...Abby and I watched from a distance.

Overall, it was a fun activity for our weekly adventures.

Valentines Day

So we had a wonderful Valentines Day. Instead of going out and waiting for unreasonable amounts of time at a restaurant, Kevin and his buddies thought it would be good to just make an elegant dinner for their wives at home. So Marc, Mackay, and Kevin made Kathryn, Lindsay and Ia fabulous dinner for Valentines day. We had Martinelli's , Cesar salad, and shrimp cocktails for an appetizer and then we had Beef Wellington for the main course. It was wonderful! Here are some pictures:
