Phoebe can walk! We had a great day yesterday! We were lucky to be invited to some people Gabe works with, house in the country. The house was huge and beautiful, they had 22 mo old triplets, and an 11 year old girl, that plus 2 fantastic playrooms...I think the kids had the best day they have had since arriving! We all did. It was so nice to have other adults to talk to, and everyone was lovely and dinner was fantastic. ...and while we were there, Phoebe walked for the first time. A pretty great day!
Gabe has off and left for NYC this morning... so we are hoping the weather holds up and no travel delays are incurred!

Abby...first, I can not believe lil' Phoebe is WALKING!!!!! Absolutely amazing. I still see her in her lil' infant seat with all the kids helicoptering over her! I love reading about your adventures and thoughts Abby. You are a beautiful writer.
When I read what you wrote about reflecting on Mary-Mae's growth, it reminded me so much of how I look at Taylor (in those short fleeting moments unfortunately). This journey is soooo good for your soul--and I am so glad you are embracing it. We love and miss you--but feel such good things after reading your posts. Love each and every one Abby. Hugs to you and I hope all goes smoothly while Gabe is in NY :)

Judith-
It is so good to hear from you- I was just thinking about you yesterday- There was an article in the paper talking about the fact that there will be a baby boom in China starting in a couple weeks, because the year of the Pig is about to start.. and that is a lucky and blessed animal?? and then every so often gold runs through through the Chinese calendar, and that is this year too.. so it is double lucky and rich.YOU are going to have a SUPER BABY!!!!!!

Abby - Everything about London sounds wonderful! I love reading about all your experiences. I can't believe Phoebe is walking!!! I have been traveling a ton lately so I just took some time up read about everything! We are missing you guys. Claire talked about MM Friday and she wasn't quite putting it together that you wouldn't be back for awhile. I just passed on your blog to Kristen, Kaylene and Barb again....so you may be hearing more from everyone now! Miss you! Kelley

Kelley-
It is so good to hear from you- I am missing everyone a TON!!! It is a bummer that my email doesn't work... i feel so out of touch! We really like London life.. although when Gabe called from the hotel last night, and I heard american TV in the back, my heart skipped a beat! :)
