18 Months!

This little girl is still growing up quicker than I would like but I feel like the milestones aren't coming quite as quickly and I get to enjoy each of them a little longer. She continues to bring so much joy to our home every single day. Here are some examples:

She was a bunny for Halloween and ever since, anytime the words bunny rabbit are mentioned she runs around saying "bunny rabbit" looking for her costume. Then, often times she starts saying "jumping" and heads for our bed (cute now, but this will have to stop at some point:).

She is my little shadow and wants to be where ever I am, doing whatever I am doing (poor thing needs a sibling). I've decided to embrace these moments and use them as opportunities to teach her, in hopes that she will take over some of these chores one day. :)

She loves loading the dryer.

She has to be up at the counter while I am making dinner and pushes the stool over all by herself.

She loves to pretend talk on the phone. Multiple times a day she will pick up the phone, say "hewow" and start babbling about who knows what.

She loves to see other children when we are out and if she is in a friendly mood will wave and say "hi boy" or "hi girl". The other day we went to the Veteran's Day Parade in Fort Worth and there was a 3 year old girl next to us. Anna started by waving and telling her hi, then started touching her soft jacket, and then reached over and held the girl's hand. Melt. My. Heart. Never loose this love for others little girl.
