Fall Fun

Anna is grabbing her feet all the time now.  She is teething already, so lots of drool and she's been on and off fussy.  The past two nights have been fine, the previous two she was miserable!  Anna is so sweet that it's hard to see her struggling.
 
She is also rolling over now!  She rolled over for the first time on Friday, October 12th at daycare.  She was almost doing it all weekend for us, but we have only seen her roll from tummy to back.  She is a strong girl so I am sure we will see it soon!!
 
Enjoy the pictures!
 


 
Bath time with Alex!  Tonight was the first time the kids took a bath together.  They both loved it.

Kind of a terrible picture....

Anna Banana

Anna is growing so quickly, she is just amazing to watch. She has a very sweet temperment and is our little Princess.  She is talking more and is starting to play with toys.  She does not prefer her swing anymore, but likes to kick and talk on a blanket near the crowd.  Anna seems to be very social.  Her entire schedule changed when she started going to daycare because she stays awake in the morning to play with the little girls.  Now she sleeps through the night!

Last week Anna had a cold.  She was pretty congested, but nothing a humidifier and some baby chest rub couldn't cure.  She was a trooper the whole time, even though it was hard for her eat!

We think Anna is teething because she is constantly shoving her hands in her mouth and drooling.  Poor kid is only 16 weeks old!!  She is also VERY close to rolling over.  Anna loves tummy time.  She just whips herself around.  Some nights I will go in her room to check on her and she's not where I laid her.  She's shimmied to the over side of the crib!  She really cracks me up.

If you look at Anna, she smiles.  She is happy as a clam!  Now to pictures...

Not quite yet...! 
 
Apple Jack's Apple Orchard.  So many people commented on the "cute baby laying in the hay!"  It was pretty shadowy so I failed to get a good picture.
 
 
 
Diaper change?
 
 
 
Snuggles!  She looks blond here, but her hair is definitely brown.
 
 
Interesting... she has some patchy hair!
 
 
 
She loves to sit up and watch what's going on.
 
 
 
Alex said, "Mommy, Anna looks like a Princess!"  I tend to agree.
 
 
Lake Calhoun.  Anna was not happy when we first arrived which is unlike her.  She calmed down after a little while and we were able to walk a bit.
 
 
Gotta love a double stroller!

This might be my favorite picture of Anna.
"Hey - I want that!" 
 
 
 
Some videos below of Anna expressing her desire for food and snoring.  Yes, my little girl snores!
