DG said...: OMW, where do I even begin. Watching Lexi & Leah run around A was so funny, and the dog kisses were hysterical. I love how A is already learning their roll onto your bell trick that Rick taught them! :) And it in no way surprises me that you have taken on the Boyd OCD Germ trait, it's even wearing off on Abby. I can only imagine what this house will be like when we have a baby...Rickey will have to live in a bubble! LOL!

Her teeth are SOOOOO cute, it's crazy how much she has changed in just a little over a month, I love the new little roll on her neck. She seems so comfortable and happy and it is amazing to see. I love the model pose and her saying DaDa. Okay, I could write about everything but I will sum up with I love EVERYTHING about her!!; April 2, 2009 at 8:39 AM

But, after watching Ayana's video, I really CAN'T WAIT!! She is a beautiful girl and it is apparent what a joy she is to both you and Rick! God bless you all!; April 2, 2009 at 10:14 AM

Tania said...: Thank you for sharing that. So precious. Ayana is such a beauty, and growing like crazy. So good to see.

Sabah does that same exact model pose...it's hilarious. Every time she does it, I grab for the camera, but as soon as she sees the camera, she stops. I guess I shouldn't hope for a modeling career with her. haahaa.; April 2, 2009 at 12:50 PM

I've got a travel question for you. Is there a way I could email you? I send one to you using the address on your profile, but got one back saying you are on maternity leave. Just had a quick question for you. Thanks!
