Happy 10th Birthday Abby!

It is impossible to believe that my baby is turning 10 today!!  Here are several of our memories!!

Happy Birthday Abby!!

• You were born on a Saturday night.
• We left for the hospital at 8 a.m. that morning after Gramma & Grampa K. came to watch Trev.
• You looked so serious when you were born.
• They put a pink bow in your hair as soon as you were born.
• You were way too little for the beautiful white snowsuit that Gramma T. bought you!
• Trevor was amazed at you as he looked in the cradle at you.
• Trevor thought that you belonged to Gramma T. and that you should go home with her!!
• You were a good sleeper and a good eater.
• You looked absolutely adorable in your pink Winnie the Pooh hat.
• You began walking at 9 months old -- just trying to keep up with Trev!
• You were a good car rider.
• You looked so tiny in your Dad's arms.
• You are quite athletic -- you aren't afraid to try any sport and you are pretty good at many of them!

• You love spending time with your family.
• You are so happy to have a cell phone -- and you are pretty responsible for it (except for the recent JC Penney incident!!).
• You enjoy visiting Mom's sisters in Chicago.
• You remind me of a city mouse/country mouse -- you enjoy the best of both worlds.
• You do tend to yell more and more often!!
• You take the longest showers -- we may have to get a timer for you.
• You love taking care of your "baby cousins."
• You look up to your older cousins.

• You love fishing and catching frogs while camping.
• You gave us quite a scare when you crashed your bike -- we learned what the inside of the Shelbyville hospital looks like!
• You have a sweet tooth.
• You just informed me that you are not a cake person -- I can't believe that you are related to me!!

Happy Birthday Abby!!  We look forward to many more exciting years :)

Love,

Mom and Dad
