She's on a roll!

There's nothing like a good bath and then going to bed! Peek-a-Boo!
Always on the go!
My little cheerleader in training! She has unbelievable balance! Between Daddy and Grandpa doing tricks with her she'll be ready for try-outs in no time!
Pre-front flip!
Anaston finally felt the need for a snuggle toy and will snuggle him while falling asleep! I thought she's never do this and of course it's Mickey!

My little lady!
This is Anaston after her napkin war with Grandma at Applebee's. She was tearing off pieces and throwing them to Grandma and cracking up as Grandma would throw it back. By the way, she's in a jacket because on the way over she had one of her sessions where she played with her sippy cup and drenched her shirt! This is all I had!
So serious!
Could it be?!? Is that my Mickey?
She's all smiles!

Anaston is keeping us on our toes and suprising us each day with everything she is learning. We are just having the time of our lives with her! She is full of energy and just loads of fun to watch and interact with! I am getting quite the work out trying to keep up with her! She does the funniest and cutest little things everyday! In just this past week, a few things that have stood out to me are...

1. The night my mom took me and Anaston out to Applebee's and Anaston was so hungry! As soon as she saw the waitor coming toward our table with food in his hand, she's so dang smart that she totally nderstood he was coming to give us our food! She got all excited and as I was cutting up her chicken for her, she could hardly wait! I look up and see her motioning with her hand to her mouth like she was feeding herself. It was so cute! She was pretendig to feed herself! She has kept this up throughout the week whenever I'm preparig her food she gets excited all over again and does her little thing of pretending to feed herself until I start feeding her.

2. Anaston loves me to give her the sippy cup in her car seat while we're driving and she'll take sips and let the water run all down her mouth, while making noses of blowing bubbles and talking/making noises with the water. It sounds so funny and he gets a kick out of herself doing it. Only problem, she's drenched afterwards!!!

3. One of her favorite past time right now is going over to Grandma and Grandpa's and having Grandpa take her in the backyard and play with their dog, Max. She LOVES him! He is the most energetic dog you've ever seen but they have become quite close, he'll settle down for and lt her hold him and just give him hugs and kisses! He wont even let me do that! Any time she see's Grandpa, she reaches for him and says,"Ma?"(Max), meaning take me to see Max. They could spend forever together out there playing with the dog and playing ball with eachother. Grandpa is coaching her and she already has quite the technique with throwing and catching the ball. She loves the game, could I expect anything else considering the families she comes from? She also loves when he lays on the ground and picks her up and does front flips and back flips with her. I can't believe this doesn't scare her! She sure trusts him!

4. Anaston now has 7 teeth! Two new ones this week! That makes three on top and four on bottom! Poor thing! All seven teeth in only a three month period!

5. She loves taking things out of boxes, bowls, cupboards or whatever and handing them to me one by one as I count them.Then we put them all back and start over.

6. She loves to give kisses and share! When you ask for kisses and a hug she gives you the sweetest kiss and big bear hug, it melts my heart. Any time she's eating, she wants to share it with whoever is with her. You never know though, sometimes she wants you to really eat it and other times she's just teasing and will pull it away and laugh just before you bite it! Smartie!

7. Anaston loves to play peek a boo with you and to run from you as you chase her. I used to be the one playing peek a boo with her. Now she does it to me, I love it. I'll say,"I'm gonna get you!" And she screams and takes off crawling super fast while cracking up and occasionally looks over her shoulder to see how close I am till she's worn out and will just lay flat on the floor and laugh . I absolutely love it!

I have been a little sad these last few weeks, as I have realized Anaston has finally made the transiton from a baby into a little girl but she's making it easier on me every day with this new phase. She is just so much fun!
