Saturday is usually "Girls-get-to-play-with-Daddy" day and therefore the highlight of everyone's week. Unfortunately, daddy had quite a few freelance projects that he has been working on until the wee hours of the morning. So Saturday morning he took a break and went cross-country skiing in the morning and...back to the computer to work for the rest of the day. Everyone was disappointed at the loss of daddy daughter time.
Mommy - in a desperate attempt to still make the day fun - went to Grandma and Grandpa's - second only to Disneyland as the happiest place on earth. Within minutes, Abbie had roped Grandpa into playing jump rope with her, only to tug the rope out of his hands and giggle hysterically as if she had just played some sort of prank (like putting rice in his bed!). My dad, who feels that teasing is the best way to tell someone you care, thought this was wonderful. The joking around continued throughout the day.
Just as my dad left to run errands he reached over and tickled Abbie, who was now hard at work making cookies. She turned around and yelled,
" I didn't ask for this!"
When we all broke out laughing Abbie repeated it for the rest of the day!

Yeah, tell Abbie that "I didn't ask for this" either. :) I just love talking to her. She always makes me smile. Like did you know that her favorite part in Dumbo is the part with elephants. :) Love it!
Abbie is always stealing the lines I want to say! She is one cutie patootie.
