On the move...

Annabelle is really mobile these days. Besides being a VERY fast crawler, she is pulling up on everything and cruising. She is constantly standing up. And with this new ability, there are a lot of falls too. We're always having to comfort her cries and kiss her boo boos. Last night, she smacked her upper lip on the bottom of our bed and looked like Angelina Jolie for a while because of the swelling. It's all better today though! Good thing, because her dad's heart was breaking last night when it happened!

And our little girl has 8 teeth now...four on top and four on bottom. She can eat most anything because she is pretty good at chewing things, even though she's not really supposed to have that ability until her molars are in. She's also making attempts at more words. This morning she was calling her pacifier her "pa pa," she barks at Gatsby, and she called my mom Nana several times this past weekend.

It was one year ago today when I had my nasty fall and landed on Annabelle four days before she was born. I'm SO glad that everything came out OK with that. We sure are thankful for our precious Christmas angel!
