Lunch!

Anna had so many spaghettios on her after this meal that when I gave her a bath she left a ring around the tub.

Playing at the park

We just love the way Anna waves her arms around when she runs :).

Anna's first parade and some personality pics

Today we brought Anna to her first parade! It was raining, but Anna didn't seem to mind.

This afternoon we took some photos to send to the people who helped us to purchase our house. I'm including them in this post because I love how much they show her personality.

Lunch and watering

Anna likes cucumbers!

Mommy's little helper. We just planted these last week.



Here's what the flowerbeds looked like before we cleared them out and planted the petunias.

Anna's first bike ride

We recently purchased a bike trailer and today we took Anna for her first ride! We went down to a nearby river to play.

Bryan gave Anna her first lesson in skipping stones. Note the tight hold he has on her dress- Anna likes the water :)

Naptime with Elmo

Photos from Olive Garden

Does this one remind anyone of a senior portrait? It even has "soft touch."

Mmmm... a breadstick!

The big day

Today was moving day! We haven't quite finished in any of the rooms, but here are some before photos taken when we purchased the house and after photos taken today (please ignore the mess):

Stickers for Grandpa

My dad is in town for a few days to help us with our big move. Anna's having a great time with him. Today she decorated him with stickers.
