Well, we went to visit Zachary mid April...and it was great to see him! he is 3 years old now, and so sweet! He liked Abbey and wanted to get her all kinds of things...but he did NOT want her to touch him...lol and thats all she wanted to do :) we went to the park and played fresbee with him and had lunch...and abbey feel asleep in her stroller so i could have time to play too :)

she has been doing this since May 14th...shes real good at it if she really wants something....

Daniel

he is my brother and BEST bud! i LOVE him soo much and i am so proud of him

i wish we could see eachother more often :( last time he was down for christmas and got to see Abbey for the first time (he loves her) they were cute together, i even seen them sitting on the couch watching Rob N Big together! we all miss him and hopefully we will get to travel up north to see him in the next few months!

dustin's mom

she is a great woman :) she is easy going and pretty funny, i am glad we get along! we are almost opposites though, she is quiet and will hold back whats on her mind so she doesn't hurt any ones feelings...i like to tell people when i think they are being assholes :) maybe living together we will rub off on eachother?!?!

the girls

i LOVE dustin's sisters, they are really nice and they are goofy in their own ways :) and of course they are very pretty...they LOVE being aunts to abbey,and love to show her off and spend time with her...
