Dear Anna, Today you are a month older than one year old. My how the time is flying! You are still not even remotely interested in taking even one single step for me. Not one! You would rather get down and crawl six inches and then stand back up then take one teeny-tiny little step [...]

Dear Anna, Today you are a whole year old. It’s hard to believe how quickly this year has gone, but at the same time you really seem like you’ve been part of this family forever. I can’t think of one new thing you’ve tried this month besides chocolate. (And truth be told, you’ve had a [...]

You haven’t tried too many new foods this month, let’s see…tuna fish, raspberries, yellow beans and sunbutter (like peanut butter, only made with sunflower seeds). But you’ve tried many new table food versions of things you’ve had before. You [...]

Dear Anna, Today you are six months old. Half a year! Which means we’re halfway to needing to throw a fabulous first birthday party! Let’s see. In the past month you’ve become quite proficient in the rolling over department. You can roll over both ways, over and over, to get wherever you’d like to go. [...]

Dear Anna, Yesterday you turned five months old! I honestly don’t know where the time has gone – I alternate between feeling like you just got here and having a hard time remembering a time before you arrived. If I had written this letter on time, I would have said you were thisclose to rolling [...]

Dear Anna, Today you are four months old. And I feel like I just wrote your three month letter yesterday, so I’m not sure where the rest of the month went! This month you’ve learned how to blow raspberries, which you find absolutely hysterical. In fact, you tend to crack yourself up a lot and [...]
