If you ask Annie her hair color, she'll promptly respond, "Brownish." If you push a little, insisting she's blonde, she'll begrudgingly agree, "OK, blondish-brown." Anytime someone tells her she's blonde, she will later take at least a minute or two to point out ALL the brown she finds in her hair to me. Of course, she refers to my hair as blackish-brown.Here's just a couple cute pictures of Ellie today . . . from when she wasn't being such a stinker that I ended up calling the doctor's office and making an appointment since ONLY an ear infection of epic proportions could possibly cause my baby to act so cantankerous . . . the doctor assures me she's fine though. Possibly teething ("Is she drooling?" "Yes, for like the last five months."), and she does have a bit of a raw, sore throat. You couldn't tell from these adorable pictures though!
She looks positively "Squishy" here . . . like her cousin Nathan . . . you'd never know she just broke the 16 lb. mark (maybe it's the camera adding weight, coupled with the bulky sweater with horizontal stripes . . . I've warned her, and warned her, but she never listens to my fashion advice . . . )
These are some pictures Annie took of Ellie and I the other day. I don't know why we wasted all the money on kids toys . . . we should've just bought her a digital camera and called it good. I think she shows promise.
We're still working on 'framing' though.
Unrelated to the pictures, Annie was saying prayer tonight, and it takes a pretty good dose of self control on my part not to giggle at her sheer adorableness. She was "thankful we went to a store with books, that wasn't a library, but a book store." She talked about going to the doctor's with Ellie. She also was "thankful I am learning so much, like my phone number and area code and house number, and more talking. I thankful to be getting bigger so I can talk normal." I'm not quite sure why she sees her talking as 'abnormal' (in fact the doctor today told her how impressed he was by all of her talkativeness), but it was just so cute that she sees that as one of the things she's learning and growing in. And we're working on her zip code. She's pretty well rounded.

Those curls are seriously amazing! How gorgeous. She is a lucky girl. You look fabulous too BTW. I'm so impressed you have makeup on and everything. Glad that Ellie isn't coming down with anything, but at the same time it's nice if you can blame the crankiness on something more concrete. :)
Have you read the book ISH....it is so cute, and I think Annie would love it! It is about a boy who describes everything as ish, just like Annie!
That's simply adorable. Annie is the epitomy of what christ means when he says to become as a child. at least annie got your faces. Jaxson took a picture of my mom, kenzi and I and the tops of my mom's head any mine were totally cut off. lol. Also Annie's curls will probably just keep getting curlier as her hair gets longer.
Annie is so smart and cute! I love the curls, such a pretty color too. I think my Audreyboo's curls are slowly fizziling out.
