Girl Talk

Kevin had to to work this past weekend so Anna and I took advantage of having a little girls time together. We don't get this alone time often so I was really looking forward to it. It started off with Miss Attitude (which according to Kevin, she gets from me.) This is Anna's new look, actually the picture doesn't do it justice. When she gets mad or doesn't like you telling her what to do, she furrows her brow and gives you a mean look... (ok, so maybe she does get that from me.) Kevin calls it my "red-itude", I changed it to "Anna-tude".

But the day got better. After a little shopping, we enjoyed some time outside with our sidewalk chalk.

Sunday was even more eventful. We got up and spent the morning finger painting. Anna is such a princess... she didn't like getting it on her hands. But eventually she got the hang of it.

This is her masterpiece!

In the end, she ended up crawling all over her picture and getting it all over her clothes (but I was prepared for that). She even got paint on her face. After finger paiting we went to the park and played on the playground. We even watched the geese on the lake. They surrounded us and Anna thought it was so funny to hear the geese "quack". After the park, we met daddy for lunch at Buffalo Grill. Yummy! Later that day, I hit the motherload! I bought this big ball for Anna and now she thinks I'm the best mom in the world! She LOVES this thing! All in all, my weekend with Anna couldn't have been more perfect. We laughed, we played and there for a brief moment she went from Daddy's Girl to Mommy's Girl. :)

Arkansas Childrens Week

This week at Anna's daycare, they celebrated Arkansas Childrens Week. Each day they had special activities for the kids and they also had theme days.

Monday was pajama day and Anna looked too cute in her PJ's and bath robe! The bath robe was a size 0 -9 month, but it still fit... just a little short.

Tuesday was Tacky Day but I had trouble with this one. All of Anna's clothes are so cute so I didn't have anything to put her in. Instead I dressed her in a really cute top and jeans and decided she was going to be the opposite of tacky. I don't have a picture to show how cute she looked but she was C-U-T-E! On this day the kids got to see a firetruck, which is neat because her Papa is a retired fireman.

Wednesday was Sports Day and the kids got to wear their favorite sports team t-shirts. (I was surprised Kevin decided he wanted her to go in her Cubs t-shirt instead of a Razorback shirt.) This day was the day parents were invited to a picnic so Kevin and I went. The day was perfect for a picnic and Anna loved seeing us at her school.

Even Kevin got in on the fun and wore his Cubs shirt. :)Side note: You know how most kids have a blankie or a favorite stuffed animal. Well Anna has a hat. She loves this hat and the other night, all she wanted to do was wear it. She wore it until she went to bed. She looks really cute in it too. :)

And finally, Friday was Teacher Appreciaition Day. The teachers got to wear casual clothes. I took this pic of Anna this morning because I thought she looked really cute in her white skirt and pigtails. Lord knows those pigtails won't be in her hair when I pick her up this afternoon!

15 Month Stats

Anna went to the doctor this morning for her 15 month check-up and here's her stats:

Eggs To Dye For!

We spent Saturday night at my sisters house dying eggs. Anna was a pro, she knew exactly what she was doing! Avery and Jacie had a great time too. These are the 4 eggs Anna did. And this is her hand after the fact... that was fun to get off!
