Christmas Started Early

I think she is starting to understand what presents are. May the wallet survive..She has already celebrated with grandparents in KY..

Anna Mae being recruited early

Anna Mae has officially stolen my heart in this shot. Grandma and Grandpa Richardson are instilling the values of frisbee in her early, which I definitely agree with!

Halloween

Anna was a ballerina for Halloween this year. She loved her little pink tutu and was so proud of her flower head band. Check out the smile on her face in this picture - she is so proud.

We had a wonderful Halloween weekend. The Brooks family came down from Grand Rapids to spend some time with us. Anna, Payton, and Hudson had a blast playing with each other and their parents had fun too. We spent some time at the Children's Museum in Lexington -the water table was a huge hit.

As you can see Anna is growing up. She is talking up a storm and trying to say new words every day. She loves dancing and singing to her favorite songs; Old McDonald, The Wheels on the Bus, ABC's, and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. In this picture she was dancing and when I pulled out the camera she really started showing off. Isn't she so cute!

Hope you had a great Halloween!

Love,

Natalie, Anthony, and Anna Mae

Summertime!

Well, it has been quite awhile since we last posted on our blog. I guess we have been a little busy trying to keep up with our one year old little girl! She is extremely busy and keeps us on our toes, but she bring so much joy to our lives. She is learning new things everyday. She can now blow kisses, say hello, and meow like a kitty cat.

I have started staying home and we are loving every minute of it. Everyone is a lot more relaxed and we are settling into our new routine nicely. I will begin watching my friends two children three days a week in just a few weeks. I am looking forward to having friends for Anna to play with because even though I'm sure she loves playing with me all day, it's just not the same as playing with someone your own age. : )

Anna's favorite toy, at least for this week, is her ball pit that Grandma and Grandpa Wilcox bought for her. She loves to run and jump into it full speed.

I hope everyone is doing well and I promise to do a better job of posting on a more regular basis.

Love,

Anthony, Natalie, and Anna
