Happy Birthday Annie
I'm a couple of days late, but here's a big birthday shout out to my favorite two-year-old in the whole wide world: my little Annie.
Annie is in a transitional phase of her life right now. She still does some baby-ish things (she puts things in her mouth that she shouldn't, and she cries a little too often, though thankfully she has stopped crying when we put her to sleep - just a couple of months ago), but she's working on some decidedly non-baby skills like talking (today when we were walking into Baskin Robbins for some birthday ice cream, I asked her what kind of ice cream she wanted, and she said, "Pink! And Mama brown ice cream!" - she knows her mom loves chocolate) and climbing (she can get into her carseat by herself, and somehow appears to be able to get out of the Pack-n-Play. I still call her "Baby Annie" sometimes, but I need to remind myself that this name is not going to apply for much longer, if indeed it still applies at all.
The more Annie grows up, the more I love her. She is a ton of fun to be around (when she's not crying), and she's even starting to develop a sense of humor - she loves to do things she thinks are funny. She adores her sister Ellie, and I know she'll be a good big sister soon, too.
I love you, little Ann.
