How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called the children of God!
1 John 3:1

A Father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families, he leads forth the prisoners with singing.
Psalm 68:5-6

We're Stilll Here

I'm not sure where the last month has gone..... I know we didn't sleep it away because sleep has been a luxury at our house...... Two ear infections, a 'famiversary week' celebration, 3 trips to the zoo, working on Anna's walking (she's able to walk with holding one hand!), finding some sprintime clothes......I guess we've just been busy!

A quick catch up (a warning- I'm going to brag on my girl!!):

  • Anna's crawling every where....and FAST! She has fun crawling backward, crawling 'doughnuts' and shaking one leg when she's dancing. It's super cute!
  • She's learning to use a fork and a spoon- such a big girl!
  • She talks ALL THE TIME! She tells everyone she sees "Hi!" and will 'Hi' them until they acknowlege her. She'll ask, "How are you?" or tell you to "Have a good day!" More than once, someone has stopped me and said, "I remeber her; that's the talking baby!"
  • She loves music and sings "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", "Happy Birthay", and her ABCs. Not bad for a gal who's not yet 2!!
  • Anna loves Elmo! I wonder how many mommies have been able to fix supper, clean the house or take a shower just because of Elmo?!
  • Anna can count to 10 all by herself! Yes, I have a genius baby!!
  • She has taken up to 12 independent steps- walking is still really hard work...short legs just don't get you very far. She can go a pretty 50-100' with one hand held, but walks like she just got off a horse.
So..... here's what you really came to see.......

Working on walking at therapy school

Happy St. Patrick's Day


My little gal looks so big


Happy Spring!.....can you see her new top tooth?


I'm amazed at how fast she is changing and growing. I'm so lucky to get to be her mommie! Hoping you all have a Happy Spring!
