Today is August 17th, Anna’s first birthday! I know I’m posting about her twice in 1 week but I’m just so excited. I can’t believe she is already one years old. I still remember when she was a newborn baby. This is actually a picture of Anna sleeping when she was about 10 weeks old. She loved sleeping in your arms, actually she wouldn’t have it any other way. I guess you can say she got a lot of attention so it became a habit of holding her. Except now that she’s older you feel like your arms are going to fall of from holding her while she sleeps for 1-2 hours! I don’t have to hold her while she sleeps anymore but it makes it seem like she’s a baby again. It amazes me how much I know about this little girl who I‘ve known for almost her entire life. I know that when she sleeps you have to swaddle her in her blanket and bounce her to sleep(sometimes rock) I know that when she wakes up she can be cranky so you have to hold her till she’s fully awake. I know that if she’s teething or over tired she is very needy(but what baby isn’t) but luckily there’s a show called Blues Clues!(: I know that some of her favourite foods are cheerio’s, prunes, and toast with hummus. Her favourite toys right now is her dollhouse, blocks(you build the tower, she knocks it down)and her dolls. But she prefers holding onto you hand and walking, or trying to get to the green garbage can to open it and stick her hand in, or getting to the bookshelf and throwing all the books off and even trying to climb the stairs, even though she’s not aloud. I hear her starting to talk now too. She says words like cheese, doll, mom, dad, Jess, and more. I watched her grow from this little baby to a girl who talks and (almost) walks, and I even got to be there when Anna took her first steps. I just loved spending the past year with her, being apart of her life and watching her grow. I hope I get to continue watching her grow, many birthdays from now! Happy first birthday Anna!!! <3 <3 (:
