This is a post all about Anna-- her cute, her crazy, her curious, and her curl!
Dear Anna: thank you for looking at the camera at least 2 % of the time. You have such a lovely face, but not just in profile as you crawl away after your next conquest.
thank you for having a sense of humor and putting up with me as I figure out this whole "mommy" thing, and for forgiving me when I don't change your poopy diapers quite as quickly as you would like.
thank you for being so playful and happy. It makes my job a lot easier.
thank you for having such a wide stance! This is the same way your father stands. Maybe it is so you don't intimidate the shorter babies as much.
thank you for making it so cool to be a baby. I know I should have popped your collar for this picture and rolled up your sleeves in a "baby without a cause" kind of fashion, but you put up with my lack of style so tolerantly.
thank you for only eating the medical related toys out of respect for your vast array of relatives with medical training.
thank you for your concern over whether these ducks are "dolphin safe" and were caught using ecologically responsible methods.
thank you for your perfectly curly hair.
thank you for being the best doll at the toy store. (this pictures reminds me of "Where's Waldo?")
thank you for mastering the art of crawling up stairs. I respect the fact that you could have taken the elevator to the top of the slide but you made a healthy choice instead.
thank you for thinking everything is worth exploring.
thank you for expanding the influence of babies on the playground. Your focus, initiative, and persistence do your generation credit.
thank you for not biting me anymore...
thank you for embracing bath time, eating time, and reading time.
thank you for trying Indian cuisine and whatever else I throw at you. Sorry about the peaches episode...
thank you for waiting patiently for at least 3 minutes after you wake up before you start trying to pull the curtains down...
thank you for being my wonderful little girl.

How precious ... i love it all. I can't wait to see the little princess in person soon.
So clever. You're a great writer! Did I tell you that Sofia named her baby doll "Baby Anna"? We love your little munchkin.
The kids museum is KidsQuest in Factoria. Free Friday nights from 5-8pm. It gets pretty crowded but there is a little section for the wee ones. They blow off energy and come home and go straight to bed!!
