What a difference a year makes...

Milk

OH boy is this my favorite thing or what?

I LOVE MILK!

Around nap time and bed time when mommy and daddy ask me if I want milk, I start crying because I want it so bad! I get so impatient when I see them pouring it into my sippy cup because I want it immediately! And then when I drink my entire 9 oz sippy cup full and cry for more, I get very mad that they don't give me more. Mommy and daddy say Dr. Austin (my pediatrician) doesn't want me drinking more then 24 oz a day because it will make me too full to eat. I say whatever Dr. Austin- that's just 3 full sippy cups a day- BRING ON MORE MILK!

MOOOOOOO,
Anna

Have I mentioned how,,,

I LOVE to walk around the house with things on my head?!?!

Blankets, sleep sacks, pajamas, my clothes, mommy and daddy's clothes,diapers, bunny blanket, empty baskets and buckets... ANYTHING that fits on my head and covers my eyes the better! And all I do is walk around like a crazy little girl with the item on my head and giggle!

It makes mommy and daddy really nervous that I am going to run into something and get hurt, but I rarely do!

Love,
Anna

Happy Halloween!

As a Halloween tradition, we headed over to Aunt Anne's house for some good grub, a neighborhood parade and my first time trick or treating. Aunt Anne, Uncle Todd, Kate, Kate's other grandparents, mommy, daddy and I were all there. We had so much fun!!!

This year our costumes were inspired by my nickname, Anna Banana, and one great song:

Fruit salad.... yummy yummy.
Fruit salad.... yummy yummy.
Yummy Yummy Yummy Yummy Fruit Salad!
The first step: Peal the Banana
The second step: Toss in some grapes
The third step: Cut up some apple

I was a banana, mommy an apple and daddy some grapes! OH did we look good! Everyone thought daddy looked so funny and all the kids at the neighborhood parade thought he was so cool and funny. Some even came up to him and told him that he was wearing balloons, not grapes! Others came up to him just to touch his outfit. I think he enjoyed the attention of the costume but didn't like that he couldn't hold me that well.

Uncle Todd, Daddy and Mommy took me and Kate trick or treating. We went to a bunch of houses and Kate kept us safe with her magical light up wand (it kept the spooky stuff away.) We saw Miss Stephanie and her baby Mary and wished them Happy Halloween. When we got home we couldn't believe how much candy we had! I got to try my first lolli-pop... a dum dum! I LOVED it :)









 Mommy thought it was so funny because she said daddy had a bunch of areolas at the end of the night. I don't know what she was talking about, but she sure was laughing hard :)

 Did I mention the sugar high I had while driving home???


Can Halloween be next weekend?????

Love,
Anna

Henry's Birthday Party

The day before Halloween we went to cousin Henry's baseball birthday party. He was turning 3 the next day on Halloween! All my in town family on the Stilley side were there and I was so excited to see everyone.


It was a dress up party and I went as Anna Banana, mommy went as an apple and daddy went as grapes. We make a great dress up team :) Henry was a baseball player, Uncle Aaron was one too and Aunt Laura was the umpire. We played lots of games outside and ate good food and cake inside. Henry got a bunch of cool toys and I can't wait to play with them at his house.






Happy birthday Henry!

Love,
Anna

Grandpa's Birthday Party

Grandpa Fimmen's birthday was a couple days ago and we had a party for him. Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Anne, Uncle Todd, Kate, Mommy, Daddy and I were all there. We ordered pizza from Grandpa's favorite pizza place (Risotti's) and Grandma made an apple pie. Then we opened gifts and Grandpa LOVED the gifts I got him. I got him a frame of a picture of Tom, Kate, Meghan and my butts and also got the same picture on a t-shirt for him. His t-shirt said #1 Grandpa on the front and on the back it had the butt picture and said "No BUTTS about it!" He loved it so much!


I love my Grandpa! Happy Birthday!

Love,
Anna

BOO at the ZOO!

The day before Halloween, mommy, daddy and I went to BOO at the ZOO. I was going to dress up as Anna Banana but I was scared to be food around a bunch of animals (especially the monkeys), so we borrowed one of Grandma's costumes and I was a lion. No one messes with the king of the jungle!




We had so much fun! We meet daddy's friend and his kids there and we walked around the Australia section and saw tons of animals!



We also saw the sea lion show and guess what? The sea lion came RIGHT UP TO ME and did a trick and made a very loud sound. I LOVED it so much that when we left, I blew the sea lion tons of kisses!


I love the zoo!

Love,
Anna
