Updates, updates

I've been slacking lately. I can't believe it's been over two weeks since I've posted to our little girl's blog! Sorry about that.

Let's see...there has been a lot going on, as always. Annabelle is doing great. She did have a rough week in there where she was sick and EXTREMELY grumpy, but she seems to have come out of it the last couple of days.

One of the cutest things she's doing now is pointing at everything. She wants to know the name of everything. She's just filing all of the information away in her brain for when she decides to start talking. She's so eager to point, she always has her little index fingers out ready to go. And she loves to point at things at say, "oooooohhhh."

We've been going to a lot of play dates, and even hosted one at our house. Annabelle enjoys them for a little while, but she finally reaches a breaking point and throws a fit if we don't get to a quiet place immediately. She also loves to be the center of attention. Yesterday afternoon at a playdate, she was screaming and crying because she wanted to leave. When we decided to go, the whole room of moms stopped talking and started waving and saying goodbye to Annabelle. She immediately brightened up and started smiling and performing. And of course, waving like crazy. I think we have a future Oscar-winning actress on our hands.

Her crawling is crazy fast, and she loves to get into anything she's not supposed to. And she's pulling up on things a lot and standing. No real "cruising" yet, but it's right around the corner.

It's unbelievable that she's going to be one in a little over two weeks. She needs to stop growing up!
