Abby Quotes -- About the Baby

If you have ever been around a toddler or preschooler you know that they are always saying funny things.  Some things that are just down right funny, some that make no sense at all, and some that are very thought provoking.  I have (with the help of Micah) decided to make a segment of my blog named "Abby Quotes."

Today's topic of Abby quotes is about the baby.

"I want to see her!  How I get in there with her?"
        - um.... you don't

"I want her to come out so I can hold her!"
        - me too sissy, me too!

"Who is going to be her mommy?!" 
"I don't want you to have a baby because then I won't have a mommy."  
"If you have a baby, I won't be able to find you!"
        - We have had several talks on this subject.  I think she is finally understanding that I will always be her mommy and that Baby Melody will be her sister just like Lily.  I am not sure where these fears are coming from but the poor girl has had a hard life!  (Another day will be the topic of tough questions I thought I had a few more years before answering.)

"I don't want a baby in my belly because I don't want to be hurt, I want to be better!"
        - Ha!  She really doesn't like the doctor!

"Who is that turtle for?"
     -"For baby Melody"
"Who vid it to her?"
     -"Grandma Butch made it"
"Hmmm... I don't pray for that Mema?"
     -"No, she already lives with Jesus so you don't need to pray for her."
"Oh, She is already dat home?
     -"Yes, Sissy, she is." :)


"Wake up Baby Melody!" she says while shaking my belly...
        - Abby's favorite thing to do is to feel Melody kicking. :)

That's all for now. :) I am sure there will plenty more soon!  Do you have any funny kid quotes about a baby?

A blog of my own

Yep, I am starting a blog of my own.  I feel like it is the stay at home mom thing to do. :P  I don't claim to be a great writer... actually English was and is my worst subject. But if you can bare through my typos and misuse of commas, I think we will get along.

I thought it would be interesting to write about how we are coping with living in Cambodia and trying to raise an American family.  In my blog you will find parenting adventures (life with two adopted beauties and soon to be a newborn), cooking adventures (we have to substitute quite a bit of things here), and some crafty things too!   I am a feedback junkie so I would love feedback!  Encouragement, suggestions, advice, I want to hear from you!  :)

So, here we go!  Into the world of a blogging mommy.  Let's see how this goes!
