Isn't she so pretty???
These are a must have!

Does this look familiar to anyone????

OK, I know this isn't that bad, but by the time I grabbed my camera, she began to give up the fight. Abby is into everything and has a serious listening problem! I know she will be 14 months old tomorrow, but you can tell by the way she looks at me that she knows EXACTLY what I am saying. In the video, just before she opens the door, she stops and looks and me with that "and what are you gonna do about" look on her face. I really feel like I am battling a baby:-. Maybe I have amnesia, but Ruby was never like this. To this day, if I yell at Ruby, she is so sad. When I yell at Abby she puffs her chest out and grunts or yells back! WHAT??? Even when Abby is happy and showing me love, she is slapping, grabbing, and yelling. I must say that about 70% of the time her "vibrant" personality is very cute and charming... it's that remaining 30% that kills me.
On a better note, I finally got a Kitchen Aid mixer!!!! I have always wanted one. Between coupons, sales, a gift card, and some birthday money: I only paid $70! I LOVE it! She looks so pretty on my counter (don't mind the brown tile - we rent:)). Ruby and I made cookies last night and I must be rubbing off on her because she was so excited, too. It was so easy to use and clean. I can't wait to find new recipes so I can make more than just baked goods in it. I also got a rebate coupon to mail in for a free attachment, so I am getting the meat grinder... fresh burgers anyone? This is a must have for all you mothers out there that like to cook!
