Abbi The Great!

Abbigail Ann Marie- the high school Freshman.

The Cougar Cheerleader

The little girl- even still...

but mostly...

Abbi always the little pest!
Or as Nate affectionately calls her; the Knucklehead.

It's been a busy month for Abbi. Her High School registration. Joining Cheer, with relentless practices  causing us to be the zoom parents. Zoom parents? Yeah okay, but I nothing better comes to mind. Here's one example of one day, representative of how are days have been: Get to work by 6:30am. Leave work by 2pm. Pick up Abbi. Rush her to a doctor appointment, suffer through Abbi receiving a total of 6 boosters and one TB shot. Run her to another doctor appointment a mile from the last. Rush home in traffic to  get her changed. Go pick up her friend and fellow Cougar cheerleader, Lindsay. Drop them off at practise. Return home to kiss Fish and Nate as they arrive home. Get back in the car 15 minutes later for a "mandatory" parent meeting wherein they said nothing of any urgency (sorry!). Go home, feed Fish, bathe Fish and pick Abbi back up. Take Lindsay home and eventually eat and crash out just to start all over again. I never thought about this aspect of high school, but ya know what... it's pretty dang hard, maybe having a 2 year old makes it a tad more complicated. We are so proud of Abbi! She has grown so much this summer and is such the young lady and as much it may try our patience, we are excited to watch her this year and see how far she takes herself! We're pretty impressed- so keep up the good work Abberdabbers!

On the same day Abbi also received her Serra registration packet!

Trying on her Cheer shirt and shell.

What a big, brave girl she was!
So, apparently the last time we were in was at age 11. At that time the visit schedule was 11 & 15. At some point in the last 3 years they changed that- never notifying me. Should have been 11, 13 & 15. The point? Poor Abbi had to get 6 shots & 1 TB test.  Ouch!

Getting big for the pediatric table.

Abbigail's First football game:  Lot's of pictures and video snippets! She was so cute!

Abbi is always in the front row, last one on your right.

Fisher cheering on Abbi. Or dreaming of playing out there. He did clap along with the girls, though. It was cute. We support each other! Goooo Abbi!

Awesome!
