First video game

Do you even call them video games anymore?  I don't know...

Anyways, Abby loves playing some princess app on Adam's phone.  Part of the game requires you to take a picture of yourself.  Then you have the outfit you're going to wear to the ball.

Adam and I don't want to constantly take pictures of Abby for her game, so she takes her own picture.  Ha!  It is usually her eye or nostril.

Sometimes others get a chance to go to the ball, too.

It is ridiculous.  Sometimes Adam scrolls through his camera, and there are countless photos like these!  She only is allowed to play it for 10 minutes on the weekend and sometimes at night, but she sure can take a lot of pictures in that short amount of time!

The Dentist/Thumb sucking

I am sad to report that Abby no longer sucks her thumb (although I know it is a good thing).  I don't know when she officially stopped, but I just noticed this week that she never did it.  Not even at night.  A very bittersweet milestone.

I went searching back through my pictures and these were the last pictures of her sucking her thumb.  They are the night before/day of her fourth birthday.

Unfortunately, she has replaced her habit with biting her nails...

Tipton County Pork Festival

 Abby is really into Charlotte's Web, so this was her big chance to meet "Wilbur." She wanted to wear a pink dress just like Fern (the little girl in the story).

Forgotten Movies

Here are some movies Adam had on his old phone.  It is just us at Meijer, but it was Ellie's first time riding in a cart!

America's funniest home video
