What my Annie is up to these days...

I have been horrible the last few months with keeping up on my once a month "Day In The Life of Anaston" posts. So, due to my slacking, I want to just make a good size list of all the cute and smart things she is doing right now. Forewarning:This could be a long one! I am obsessed with her!

1.Anaston will throughout the day talk in sentences! She puts up tp five or six words together, it's amazing! "I want my drink please" or "Dora! Let's go Dora!" or "Thank you Mommy" or "Mickey and Pluto play ball".
2. She has recently learned to say I love you too.
3.Every morning, I go get Annie and she has a big smile and waves at me and says,"Hi Mommy!" Then she points to Brian's side of the bed and says,"Daddy's at work?"Then she says,"Drink and Mickey or Dora"...we go downstairs and she goes and gets the powder, opens the fridge and gets the water and points for me to get her cup. I make it and she takes my hand and goes downstairs for Mickey or Dora.
4.Always wants her snackis in a cup now. She says"fishies in a cup" or points to and gets whatever she wants and asks for a cup for it.
5.Loves to be outside. She names off everything she likes to do out there when we're about to go out...I wanna swing, slide, jump on tramp, see fishies, see planes, watch cars, see moon, see the doggies and moo(cow).
6.Loves her bubble bath!
7.When she's randomly wanting to get out of the house she just says, Mom...I want watch Mickey in car.
8.She has known green blue and red for a while. She loves to point out things that are those colors and tell me what color it is. She loves to point at our cars and tell us the colors like Daddy's car is blue.
9.She can count to six on her own now.
10.She unfortunately figured out opening the back door and would just freely let herself out to play so I had to start being a nazi about locking it!
11.She has to hide when she does her business now and if I or anyone else see's her or tries taking to her she says,"Bye bye Mommy" and has us leave.
12.She has started getting embarrased and shy when she gets excited. It so cute..the little face she does. I love it.
13.She can carry a full conversation on the phone with somebody.
14.She loves cupcakes and says it so cute!
15.Anaston has become quite the climber lately! And it's always the most dangerous situations! She has no fear! Even if she gets hurt, she's right back up there. She's quite the litle acrobat.
16.She sings Twinkle Twinkle to me, it is the sweetest thing in the whole world! She has the sweetest, best little voice!
17.She loves to sing and dance to any music anywhere...even if it's just a cell phone ringing!
18.She loves going to Daddy's ball games. She calls it ball ball and begs to go as soon as she see's Daddy getting dressed in his uniform. Sometimes we happen to drive by fields when we're going somewhere and without a ddoubt, she points it out and asks if we're going. It's so sad if we're not!
19.She's quite the trickster. Already knows the sweet talk and cute looks to give to get what she wants. Sheeasily tricks her aunts into giving her treats.
20.She loves to sit behind you where you can't see her and tap your shoulders and hide and laugh when you turn to look at her.
21. She loves to having laughing or screaming wars or I love you wars back and forth!
22.The second Daddy walks in from work, she screams and runs toward him with a big hug and yells Daddy!
23.Everyone always points out how much older she looks, how much taller she is, and how much more she talks and can say than any other child they know for her age! It's true! I so agree!
24.She loves babies! She'll push her baby around in it's stroller all day, feeds her, kisses her, etc. She loves being around babies and mothering them. She'll make a great big sis!
25.Anaston is very social and makes friends quick. She adapts to different situations well and I am so happy I don;t have a child who clings to my leg and screams whenever I leave her sight! She's capable and comfortable being independant and I love that. She has her mommy moments when necessary.
26.She loves to feed the ducks and share her snacks with the dogs! She also loves to chase the dogs...sometimes with her stroller or shopping cart, it's scary!
27.She loves to go to the mall and ride the carousel. She now cries when she has to get off!

30.She loves money already and already has an outstanding piggy bank!
31.She hates when I brush her teeth but loves to brush her own teeth.
32.She LOVES water! Drinking it, swimming in it,playing with in the sink, a running faucet she can splash in, a splash pad...whatever! We weren't able to put her in lessons this summer but I'm really glad now that we didn't. By mid August, she was swimming on her own! My friend put her girls in lessons so she would work with her for a few minutes whenever we would swim with them. We don't even have a pool so it's not like we went all that often and so quickly she was swimming! She's so smart and coordinated with everything! I' so glad I didn't throw a bunch money away on lessons when they're at an age where they forget anyway! With a heated pool where we're moving, she'll be able to swim year round and won't forget! Awesome!
33.She's so girly now. She points things out and says,"Cute!" or "Cool!" She'll help me pick out her outfits and bows and pick them up and tell me they're cute!
34.She's still obsessed with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse but recently gained an obsession for Dora as well.
35.Anaston knows her own name and if you ask her what her name is she'll tell you "Annie". It's so exceptionally cute!
36.She puts her shoes on by herself. She takes them off alot and then likes to do them herself. Sometimes the opposites end up on the wrong feet but she'll get it.
37.She can fasten her seatbelts by herself in her carseat, wagon and highchair.
38.Totally in the do it myself stage abut alot of things!
39.Anaston LOVES animals, mickey, Dora,coloring,

40.She plays this game wiht me and Bri where you ak her,"Do you love Dadda?" and she says,"No" so he pretends to cry and shr runs over and kisses him and says ya. Then he'll ask her,"But do you love mama?" She says "No!" So I do the same and she rushes over with a kiss and to tell me ya and we do it back and forth forever. She loves it!

45.Lately Anaston is more energetic than ever! She loves to run around full blas and gets in crazy mode where she runs around, screams and chases and plays with the dogs or with her friends if she's with them at the time.
46. Annie helps me blow her food all the time now. Anything that is hot, she blows it.
