The Daily Abbie

Not sure if she does this out of comfort or stubbornness, but it looks like our little girl has found a way to comfort and is enjoying every little bit of it.

Sleep well Abbie…and remember to put back those pillows when you’re done.

Abbie knows that once she heads up those stairs, her weekend is officially over.

Unfortunately for our little girl, life isn’t that simple…but just for the next few minutes, I’ll let her have her way and we’ll stretch that weekend out just a little bit more.

Whoa now, you gotta slow down with that sniffing. Who knows how much that little nose of yours could handle before it goes out on you.

Moderation Abbie, it’s all about moderation.

With the late night temperatures dipping into the 40s, our little girl needed a little more than an overgrown coat of hair to keep herself warm at night.

So with the help of her Dad, we made sure that our Abbie was nicely tucked away for her evening rest, and leaving all of her shivers far behind her.

Abbie’s Dad is quite the paranoid guy, so because of that rampant paranoia, our Abbie is equipped with what some would argue, too many ID tags.

But because of our little girl’s semi-active lifestyle, those old tags get a little worn down after some time.

So it’s back to the local Petco to order up a new one…and in case someone happens to find out little girl, we made sure they knew how much we loved her and would want nothing more than to have her back at home with us.

It was 5 years ago to this day (1/1/2007) that we somehow ended up with the one we all call Abbie.

Some say it was by chance, but given how much this little girl has brought into our lives, her parents know it was the biggest dose of good luck that we are able to become the permanent caretaker of our little furball.

Thank you for all of the wonderful years Miss Abbie and we’re looking forward to many more 5 year anniversaries to come.

Welcome Home Abbie, 1/1/2007:

Happy New Year & Abbie Day, 1/1/2012:

Abbie must’ve heard the New Year’s coming soon and knowing much of a preparedness nut she is, our little girl decided to squeeze in one last earthquake drill, just to be safe.

Looks like you’ve nailed it Abbie…now, just help me change all of the batteries in the smoke detectors and it’s off to the New Year parties we go.
