The Graceful Zoo

Andrea and Abby went to the Nashville Zoo with Crissy and Grace.

Abby enjoyed the Zoo much more this year because she could recognize a lot of the animals and imitate many of their noises.

Grace is one of Abby's little girl friends. They ware so cute together.

Nature Bracelets

Andrea and Abby took a nature walk with special sticky bracelets to catch their findings.

Abby enjoys to picking flowers, grass, leaves, and other plant life.

I love how Andrea plans special activities with her. I am blessed that Andrea desires to be home with Abby and finds exciting ways to interact with her.

Marionettes

We went to the Nashville Downtown Library for a marionette show of The Little Rabbit Who Wanted Red Wings.

"An original Tom Tichenor marionette play featuring beloved Tichenor puppets and the voice of the puppet master himself. In this library favorite, Little Rabbit learns a valuable lesson when his wish comes true."

Abby absolutely loved watching the show. It was pretty neat to watch how an old fashioned marionette show works. It reminded me of a scene from the Sound of Music.

Amaryllis Bloom

The Amaryllis bulb finally bloomed!

The flower grew taller than Abby! It was sitting on the floor on in the above picture. The flower grew so large that the other day it fell off the table and crumbled.

I had wanted to get a picture with all the blooms full, but I'm glad I got this cute picture of Abby and one bloom.

Mama's Little Helper

Abby has enjoyed helping her Mama around the house.

She has helped putting up the dishes and she helps put the laundry to and from the washer and dryer.

She also helps to wash the floors and windows. Andrea mops the floor and she takes a dry rag and wipes it up. Abby enjoys hearing the windows squeak when washing them.

Its great to see her enjoy helping out. She is so sweet!

Aesop's Dance

Today we went to watch Aesop's Fables by the Nashville Ballet at the Downtown Library.

Afterwards Abby went up on the stage to get a special ballet sticker and then she started to danced around... see the above video to watch her.

Centennial Park

It was such a great day outside that I took off a little early from work and met Andrea and Abby at Centennial Park.

While it was still light we took pictures of Abby with some Irises that Andrea bought on the way to the park. Although it was a tad windy, it was an all around a beautiful day!

After our flower pictures we fed the ducks some of our left over bread at the pond. Abby loves to hear and watch the ducks.
