16 Fun Facts About Abbigail Peyton

Abbi turns 16 months today!! YIKES!! Where has the time gone?

1. Born at 12:15 am on February 2, 2008 and weighed 8 lbs 1 oz, 20.5 inches long.

2. Since she was born at night, it took about 2 – 3 weeks to get her on the right schedule. Fast forward to today, she still doesn’t sleep through the night. She's getting better though :O)

3. She drinks her sippy cup like she taking a shot. Her dad taught her that. We also use that munkin formula container for snacks. Instead of dumping the snacks out to eat, she wraps her mouth around in the hole and kicks her head back like she’s taking a shot. I’m so proud! Thanks Josh!

4. Can’t sleep without her “lovey”. It goes everywhere. I’m trying to train her to only have it when its time to take a nap or go to bed. Same story with her pacifier. So far she hasn’t been too upset with not having either.

5. She LOVES to watch Yo Gabba Gabba. She can do the dancey dance from the “New Friends” episode with Jack Black called the “Disco Roll”. She also loves their song called “Hold Still.” It’s the only way we can get her to stay still why we change her diaper.

6. When we want her to go somewhere, we tell her to “March, two, three, four, Hup, two, three, four” and she’ll walk.

7. She LOVES containers and anything that kinda resembles a puzzle. Whether is a box, basket, pregnancy test box, little crate, she loves to put things in it, carry it to one location, dump it out and repeat the process. She’s also obsessed with those BIG legos and these plastic eggs from Easter.

8. She can point to her nose, eyes, mouth and ears. It’s funny when she points to her ears because she plugs them and walks around like she can’t hear you.

9. She likes to go into our side room and is very sneaky. She’ll wait till we are not looking and then will make a break for it. If we are watching her closely, she’ll wave and do the whole look I’m cute, and then run off into the side room.

10. She LOVES books!! Her attention span has grown to where she’ll let you read the books to her a couple of times before getting bored.

11. She LOVES music!! We’ll sometimes put on the music stations on the television and watch her go! Josh is trying to teach her the “Stanky Leg”. It’s funny to watch her do it.

12. She likes to torment Baxter. She learned how to climb up on the couches by herself, so she’ll climb up and push Baxter off and then get down. She makes up for tormenting him by throwing his football for him.

13. Abbi knows a few words: mom, dad, what, dog, bye. She calls Josh “Josh” instead of dad. It irritates him and makes me laugh! She’ll also make a higher pitch “woof” for what the doggie says.

14. When she throws tantrums, she flops back and forth from her back to stomach. Occasionally she’ll stay on her back and will scoot herself across the room. Or she’ll go into another room and scream in there, come out to see if we were coming to get her and then go back in.

15. Loves to play hide and seek. She’s a better seeker then hider. Josh and I will go hide in a closet or behind a door and she’s learned to follow/find Baxter and then she can find us!

16. She got a new shirt a few weeks ago!
