Growing Fast!

I was looking at pictures of Anna at Christmas time, and she looks like a different baby to me now! She's growing too fast. She's doing well back in day care. She still plays with her buddy, Ross. She's been having some trouble with nap time, but I think she's starting to settle back into a routine. We're back into our semester schedule full swing now. The next month will be pretty busy--lots going on at work. Anna is cruising on the furniture like a pro! She even lets go sometimes and turns around. As soon as she realizes she's not holding on to anything, she sits back down. She loves her little "walker." I'll try to post a video of that soon. She pulls herself up on the handle and just starts walking! She's very proud of herself...it's so cute. She is also enjoying having books read to her more and more. She's starting to use her signs really well, too! She is telling us when she wants a diaper change, when she's done with one thing for dinner and wants another thing (puffs or wagon wheels usually). She is even trying to say words! She says book (without the "k"), "bok, bok" for her stuffed chicken, "wo, wo, wo" for doggie/puppy, "mao" for kitty cat, "bah-bah" for bye-bye while she waves... It seems like she's doing something new every day! And now she's up from her nap, so I'll write more later!
