Annie seems to have grown up overnight! She loves to talk and tell lots of stories, but her favorite thing is probably to scold us. She furrows her eyebrows and can really let you have it if you've done something that doesn't make her happy!:) She says a lot of things in full sentences now (Where is it?, Let me down, Here you go...), and says new words every day. She is also learning her animal sounds, which is so much fun when we see a dog on our walk, or the cat at Grandpa's house.
We've had to rock Annie to sleep since she was tiny. It was fun at first, cause you got this little bit of snuggle time with her, but the bigger she got...geez! Then one night I asked her if she was ready for bed and she just said, "Yep," and headed straight for her bedroom. Ever since then, she will tell you when she's ready for bed or a nap, then she'll pick up her baby and wait for you at her bedroom door.
And...we are officially pacifier free!
We started taking Annie to Nursery at 17 months...she was just too active to sit through the grown-up classes anymore! She LOVES Nursery!! She plays good with the other kids, but we are working on the whole concept of sharing. Apparently, Annie is a snack stealer.
One of Annie's favorite things to do is help me with the laundry. Assuming that "help" means she drags the clothes and hangers all over the living room. Thankfully she's also learned how to pick things up! She's a great helper!
Someday she'll get the fork and spoon deal. We're working on it.:)
Annie also loves bath time. She has "quacks" that she plays with...she lines them up on the side of the bathtub. I'm SO glad I didn't have to teach her about getting her ducks in a row!:)
