4 Month Adventures... and Halloween

Well, Abigail is now 4 months old, as of Oct. 20th. At her 4 month pediatricians appointment, she weighed in at 13 lbs. 3 oz. and was 24.5 inches long.

This month has been lots of fun as Abigail has more of a personality developing.  She smiles lots and lots, especially at mommy and daddy.  She has not quite figured out how to laugh, but when we tickle her or give her raspberries on her tummy, she will grin really big and let out a loud AHHH. Speaking of raspberries, that is Abigail's newest trick.  She also LOVES to babble and squeal.  She is really discovering her voice.  One of her favorite times to talk is when she wakes up in the middle of the night.  It is so darn cute to hear her talking to herself in her crib.  She is sleeping really well.  She usually goes to bed around 7:30 or 8:00 PM and doesn't wake up until 4-6:00 AM, then goes back to bed and wakes up for the day at 7:30.

We have had some fun adventures too.  We still go on walks frequently with our friends, but as it gets colder we either go later in the day, or have to forgo the walk all together.

We also took a Fall drive up in the canyon.  The leaves were beautiful.  Abigail was asleep the whole time, but it was still a fun little family outing.

Abigail and mommy have also had a few outings with friends.  We went to the Church History Museum, where they have a special kids section (only until January though).  Abigail had fun looking around and watching the other kids play, and Alison had fun visiting with friends.

On another occasion, we went to Gardener Village to see the Witches and other Halloween decorations.  Abigail loved riding in the carrier and being able to see everything.

For Halloween the Harris' love to wear coordinating costumes (Our first Halloween while dating Alison was a butterfly and Steve a butterfly catcher; next Halloween Steve was a dog and Alison a dog trainer; and last Halloween, Alison was a cat and Steve was a scratching post).  This year we were Lions, and Tigers, and Bears ("Oh my!").

We are excited for many more adventures to come with our wonderful Abigail Mae!
