Walking...

Annie has started to walk everywhere these days. I noticed yesterday that she has stopped crawling. She crawled on Sunday, mainly the bear crawl but then yesterday she didn't crawl at all. We really wanted her to walk but she worked soooo hard to learn to crawl that I feel a little sad that she is through this stage. I am going to watch today to see if there is any crawling at all. Our little baby is growing up and it is happening so fast.

Shawn is working nights to cover another supervisor's vacation so we have the car for a few weeks!! This is great timing because my funny knee is causing me some pain. Anyway, yesterday we went to the mall and to the bank. Annie held my hand and walked everywhere. It was really cute!!! She slept 12 hours last night when she usually sleeps between 11 to 11 1/2 so I think it tired her out!! It also may have been the stress of a 2 1/2 year old in the play area that stole her toy and hit her in the face!! Poor babe but she weathered it well. She is at such a kind age where she shares toys and plays.

I also have to note here that last night Annie and I put up a piece of art in the bedroom. Annie pointed at it, nodded and said "yeshhh" after it was on the wall, which I think means she likes it. So this morning when Shawn came home, she pointed at it and showed him that we had put it up with the hammer!!! This child really does appreciate art. She loves to look at the paintings in our home. We were at the mall yesterday so that I could use a few gift certificates to purchase an easle for her. It is red, her favorite colour and soon we will have our little artist at work!! Annie loves music and art - she fits in well with our family.
