As I think about it, Abby has three things that she absolutely loves to do to no end: watch TV, read books, and ride swings.

Abby loves TV, movies, and video games! She certainly is her father's child! Although Jason has definitely led to limit and structure these times for her. Currently her favorite TV shows are Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Sesame Street, and My Friends Tigger and Pooh. She definitely doesn't like the Doodlebops! Frankly, I think they are pretty scary too! Her favorite movies currently (this area changes frequently) are Cinderella and The Sword and the Stone. Her favorite video game that she plays with her Daddy is the Star Wars Legos for the Wii. The other day, Jason put a movie on for her and she looked at him with big eyes and a big smile and asked, "Daddy, will you watch with me?" Who could resist! So of course he agreed and she was so excited! She repeated over and over again, "Oh this will be FUN! So FUN Daddy!" Then she cuddled up next to him and watched her movie. I walked into our room where they were watching the movie, Jason was fast asleep, and Abby looked up at me with this big grin and whispered, "Daddy is sleeping. He watch movie with me!" Too precious!

If she has got to love TV as much as she does, than I am certainly thankful for how much she loves books! This girl can read you into the ground. I swear she never tires of it! Book after book after book. She could read for hours. Thankfully, she also loves to read by herself. Every morning she gets "books and milk." When we hear her wake up we have the routine of giving her a stack of books and a cup of milk and she reads to herself for 30 -45 minutes each morning. It is funny now because when she gets tired during the day she will give us this sad fussy look and ask for "books and milk." My favorite is when she asks to read to me, pulls out a book, and reads it to me from memory. She is pretty cute!

And then there is the swing set at the park. What kid doesn't love the swings! Once she gets on, it is hard to get her off! She is like the energizer bunny, she just keeps going! Isn't life at this age so sweet! It is the simplest of pleasures!
