Baby Anna is crawling all over the place. It is so adorable to watch her little bottom wiggle when she crawls. She roams around the house to her little hearts content. I have put a little point of interest for her in every room, so that way she has something to go to when she get there. Anna has never felt the need to follow me around the house. As soon as she started to crawl she was off doing her own thing. She does come and look for me after awhile and I have to tell you, one of the first places she looks is in the bathroom. I think she is finally used to the sound of me being sick. Poor thing. Poor me! :) I am so thankful that she plays so well by herself. I love to be doing something and then hear her get so excited about some new thing she does. It is adorable to watch her when she gets proud of herself. She is such good company. Well, she does have her days, but then again so do I. I have loved every stage so far with her. She has taken her sweet time to do stuff so I don't really feel like any of it has flown by. I feel like I really have gotten to cherish every day with her. Don't get me wrong though. . . I CAN NOT believe she has been with us for almost a year. Of course I can not believe Neil and I have been married for 7 and a half years. CRAZY!!!

I donated my hair to "locks of love" this week. That was kind of fun. It was kind of funny because Neil called me in the middle of getting my hair cut and he says "Well, don't go to short" and I said "Too late. You have to give them at least 10 inches and my hair is only like 11 inches long" He didn't sound to happy. But it is only that short in the back, the front is just about to my ears. And it is kind of fun for me that Neil can kiss the back of my neck now. I didn't know how much I would enjoy that.

OH!!!!! There is this HUGE exciting thing happening at our house. We are having a ground breaking ceremony for Paul and Emily. Our friends bought the lot next to ours and they owned it yesterday. I told them for my birthday I wanted to dig a hole in their dirt. So we are going to sit on their dirt and imagine what their house is going to look like. It's going to be GREAT!

Um . . . 8 weeks.

Well, it has been much to long since I have updated. But I got to tell you it is mostly because I feel like CRAP!!! And why you may ask that is worth blogging about? Well, the biggest news in our house is that Anna is going to be a sister! She is VERY excited. When Neil and I sat her down and told her the wonderful news she was elated. I mean really she could barely sit still so was so happy! I think she is hoping for a sister. But Neil is pretty sure she is hoping for a brother. It is weird to me that she probably won't remember the time she was an only child. She has been so much fun to watch grow. And she is so amazingly brilliant. She is not really a driven baby. But she is so quick to figure stuff out, it is almost like I can see her little brain working.

Any way, I still haven't been to the doctor yet. Mostly because I can't decide on one and our insurance is a little non existent right now. So we are praying and waiting for that to work out. I am alot sicker this time too. I always felt weird with Anna, but it never added up to much. This time I have made quite a little friendship with our toilet. My first trimester should be over at the end of the month. So I am hoping and praying I will feel better then.

I got Anna's hair into her first pigtail last week. It is amazing how much cuter she keeps getting. I mean really how is that possible?
