Eleven Months

I can hardly believe that I only have one more blog post left to complete little Annie's first twelve months. She's gotten to be so beautiful and a whole lot cuter than those first months (if thats even possible!)

She is such a calm, sweet, smiley baby. So easy to put down for her naps and bedtimes. And if you keep her well fed she is happy as can be! In the last two months we have seen her start to crawl, pull up and most special of all... play with sister. Today when I came home they were both sitting together digging through the toy bins in seach of the next great find. Also one morning this past week, while Katy Jo was sleeping in way late (almost ten!) Annabelle chose to just crawl down the hallway and then she proceeded to pull up on her knees and bang on the door as hard as she could. It was the cutest thing I'd ever seen! They love eachother so much. We can't help but let Katy Jo hop down from her spot at the table to go over and give sister food off her plate. They are really becoming loving sisters. Its so fun to watch.

Mickey Mouse at Ten Months!

This year for Halloween Katy Jo wanted to be either a mermaid or minnie mouse. After finding a great deal on two used disney costumes, we settled for a minnie & mickey. They were precious! Here is Annabelle at (around) ten months and sweet sister.

Nine Months

Our little nine month old finally decided it was time to start exploring the world. With lots of encouragement from myself, daddy and sister, precious Annablelle starting crawling about two weeks ago. She now follows me around the house from room to room. Katy Jo is thrilled.  She often says, "look mommy, the doctor said Annabelle needs to learn to crawl and she is now." So fun! We are super proud of Annabelle and can't wait for her to start pulling up soon!
