We’re still deciding what will make the cut for the February album, but in the meantime enjoy a year’s worth of red chair photos!

After you take a swing through January, check out the latest addition to Abby by the Month.

Although it’s hard to catch on camera, December was the month Abby started signing. Her first sign was “more,” then she starting doing “dog,” “milk,” and “water.” But here’s a sign every baby learns how to do:

But wait, there’s more! We put together a little end-of-year gift for you—a collection showing how Abby’s grown over the last 10 months. Enjoy!

November highlights include new pajamas, jeans that wouldn’t fit over Abby’s cloth diaper butt, and a lot of downward facing dog as she tries to stand up.

October was a big month. We went to the zoo, a friend’s wedding, a pumpkin patch, early voting, and Halloween festivities. 4 more teeth came in—those days were fun lemme tell ya—and she’s crawling!

For the almost 3 years we’ve lived in our neighborhood, this house has proudly displayed the ten commandments on a yard sign. Who knows how long it was up before we moved here.

But check out what Abby and I snagged a shot of during our morning walk today.

Hell yeah, Texans for Obama!

We promise we take Abby out of the house. We just always forget the camera. It’s a good thing she’s so cute, because you won’t mind that almost all the pictures are of her in the bed.

In August, Abby turned 6 months old. To celebrate, we gave her solid food for the first time. Obviously, she was a big fan.

On the docket this month: teeth, elimination communication, and accessories.

But this girl takes accessorizing seriously. You’ll see Abby wearing an amber teething necklace in most of the photos. When worn against the skin, the amber heats up and releases minuscule amounts of resin that supposedly has healing properties. Yes, we are hippies. But we figure it can’t hurt, and she seems to have less teething-related pain while wearing it.

You won’t want to miss the June batch…we finally caught Abby laughing on camera!
