Very nice review of the year. You left out that you started remodeling your kitchen.
Wow! Abbey really changed in a year's time. Don't let her change during next year.
Great post! I especially loved the videos of Abbey dancing and the one of her opening her Christmas present.
Looks like you had a great year. I hope 2009 is just as good.
What a great way to review the year. Funny how it all revolves around the kiddo, huh! It won't change, either. I love that little girlie.
