Dear Anna,<\/p>\n

Today you are a month older than one year old.\u00a0 My how the time is flying!\"20090717_yellow_dress\"<\/p>\n

You are still not even remotely interested in taking even one single step for me.\u00a0 Not one!\u00a0 You would rather get down and crawl six inches and then stand back up then take one teeny-tiny little step to Mama.\u00a0 Though I’m actually convinced it’s not that you can’t<\/em> walk, it’s that you’re too smart to walk.\u00a0 Because, after all, why walk when people will carry you everywhere?!?<\/p>\n

On the other hand, you are more than willing to sign and try out words.\u00a0 You are incredibly verbal, and besides your favorite word, “book”, you have “uh-oh” down – although it comes out as “duh-doh”, which is just so darn adorable.\u00a0 You have names for us: Daddy is “da-da”, the dogs are “da-da”, Carrie is “da-dee”, and I’m “ma-ma”.\u00a0 On the signing front, you can sign “milk”, “more”, “all done”, “water”, “banana”, “book”, “cheese”, “dog”, “monkey”, “bath”, “sleepy” and “chicken”.\"20090729_impish\"<\/p>\n

You seem to be having a hard time deciding whether you need one nap or two.\u00a0 If I put you down for a morning nap, you aren’t really interested in an afternoon nap, but then you are insanely crabby by about 5:00.\u00a0 If I try to keep you up until the afternoon nap we can’t go anywhere at all in the morning, because you immediately conk out in the car.\u00a0 I’m hoping you figure out how much sleep you need pretty soon here!\u00a0 If you like, I could take one of those naps for you…?<\/p>\n

We’ve had a busy, busy summer so far, and I think you’re going to be a little confused when your big sister and best friend ever gets on the bus for school in a few weeks.\u00a0 You are absolutely delighted just to be in the same room with her, so I know you’re going to miss her.\u00a0 So will I, but we can both be waiting for her to get off the bus every day, and we’ll find other things to do with ourselves all day!\"20090803_giggling_girls\"<\/p>\n
