Quinnie TAGS Abbey!


Okay, so Abbey was tagged by Kim's little Quinnie...
so here we go. 8 things about my Abigail Mathews:

1. She loves to tell me when someone is doing something wrong. (tattle tale-- yes) I kind of think that she truly believes she is the adult. I'll be standing in the bathroom with the girls and Abbey will freak out, because she thinks Makayla is going to get into the toilet, and she starts yelling at her. "I'm right here, Abbey, who's the mom again??"

2. She loves MAKEUP-- every time I'm putting on my makeup, she comes to get some too. She loves Mascara, eyeliner, eyeshadow, and lipgloss (probably her favorite) I'll put some of one thing on, she'll look in the mirror, "nope, not pretty yet." She is not "pretty" until all items of necessary makeup are in place.

3. She loves to draw and is very artistic and creative. She could paint all day. I love it. I hope she grabbed some of my mom's genes along with RJ's dad's. (both wonderfully artistic people)

4. She loves to play with friends. She is very VERY social. (WHERE did she get that from, her two hermit parents?) She is very friendly and outgoing-- I never have to worry about her in social situations. The other day she played with Mickell's Halle ALL day-- seriously from 12:00 n0on until 7:00 (we took them to McDonalds for dinner, because we couldn't pull them away from each other) I am still hoping/waiting for the day that she will consider Makayla a playmate.... Hoping Hoping. It will happen right?

5. She is smart. I know, I know, so is your kid right? But what would we be if not in love with our children. She says things, daily, that absolutely blow me away. The other day, we were talking about how President Hinkley died and now President Monson is the new president. and she said, "He died, and then he'll get to heaven, but he'll live again like Jesus" This came shortly after lessons on Easter, so I was impressed. She remembers people the very best. She will rarely forget someone after she has met them, and remembers things about them, and things (mostly toys) that they had. She will forever love Trey Evans because he is the cute boy with the sister with the cute name and he has the CUTEST dog ever, that he lets her pet.

6. Okay these are getting long, so I'll try to be more concise. She has the most beautiful eyes. The darkest brown with the blackest, curliest eyelashes ever--whoever passed those to her, Thank you! Because it surely wasn't me.

7. She loves to read books and sing songs. She has almost all of her books memorized and I'll catch her reading them (well you know, by memory...she's not THAT smart) but she gets them almost word for word.

8. She fulfilled my dreams of being a mommy. I know, corny, but sooo true and so important. She is my first baby and She will always be that precious little girl who made me the happiest woman on the planet, the day she was born. She truly is my angel. And I never knew it was possible to love someone that much, until she came into the world.

Now Abbey tags: Megan's Gabby, Izzy, Adde Jane, Halle, Jen's Hailey, Britny's Avery, and Danielle's Breckyn (if she EVER sees this...I tagged her months ago for something else and ...nothin')
