Too Much Fun to Blog!?

Wow!!! It's been a while since I've blogged. We have been very busy throughout February, jetting off to Baltimore to visit Auntie Heather and Uncle Scottie and getting outdoors whenever the weather is permissible. Annabelle loves to be out and about. She is quite the people watcher. Nick and I have commented many times that we wish she were able to express what she was thinking about all she's seeing. Soon enough, I'm sure. Many mothers have told me I'll be wishing the opposite when she does actually decide to share those thoughts with the world...we'll see. Some words AB does consistently say are; ball, moo, kitty, uh-oh, hey, hi, yeah, Dada, Mama (when shes really upset), a version of Boom and a version of cock-a-doodle-do. She signs a bit, especially at meal time. Signing, more, all done and eat. Just recently during meal time we've been letting her take charge with the spoon or fork. This in most cases results in more food on AB than in AB's belly and many more trips to the bathtub. It's all worth it when she smiles that goopy smile after she connected spoon to mouth and says "Yeah!!"

Mommy and Daddy both conquered a few milestones as well. I jetted off to Baltimore for an all girls weekend leaving AB for the first time for more than one night...and Nick had his first AB-Daddy weekend! It was a lot of fun for everyone.
This month, we're planning to spend every nice afternoon outside on wagon rides and trips to the park. We can't wait for spring to take full bloom. :-)

OMG she is cute! What is she so intently working with in her hands? I had to enlarge the photo to study it - she has such beautiful hair and skin! I think she is a perfect blend of both you and Nick!

She has two magnets from the fridge! The more she grows the more I can see a little mommy coming through. :-)

I think my favorite part is that she has a sweater and socks on, but no pants. LOL! She is so adorable!
