Our Little Anna Banana...

Okay so you are probably going to think that I am the worst mother letting my nine-month old have cheetos and ice cream, but I promise this doesn't happen very often...my baby really just loves to eat and she is so cute while she is doing it that it is hard to resist.
Anna is such a healthy happy baby. We just had our nine month check-up last Monday and found everything to be just the way it should be. She is 18 lbs. and 27 1/2 inches long which is 2 pounds heavier, but exactly the same length as last time. This completely baffles me, because I am constantly buying new clothes to fit her long body. The only explanation we can come up with is that they measured her wrong last time...Oh well, she is healthy and wonderful. She is also able to stand up and cruise as long as she has something to hold on to and unfortunately she can go up stairs (which is a terrible thing in our three story home) She can say hi and loves to sing and listen to herself talk. Her hair seems to be growing quickly and above is a picture of her mohawk she gets during naptime because she sleeps on her head with her bum up in the air (sooo cute). She also loves playing with her big brother and no matter how much he bugs her she always comes back for more. She thinks he is hysterical and he loves to give her hugs and kisses whenever he can. I really just love our little family and I am so grateful for Anna and the things she teaches us everyday. She is an Angel!

She is just so cute! I can't believe how much she and Jacob look a like. That's great that she's cruising all over the place. I can't wait till Madisyn does too!

Hi Mandy, I just found your blog. You're right that picture of Jacob and Anna shows an amazing likeness. You'll have to check out our blog, introducingthenevilles.blogspot.com.
