Life with Annabelle

I thought I would give you a glimpse of what life is like with Belle these days...

Belle loves to play with her stuffed animals. Red Bear (above) is still the top dog (err, bear?) around here, although she has high regard for her other animals as well. Recently, AB has taken great interest in making sure her animals are well-clothed. She has graciously let Red Bear borrow her hat, scarf, jacket and boots to make sure he is nice and warm. Now this is quite the treatment for Red Bear, which is most commonly seen in a simple light blue onesie.

AB also loves tea parties with her friends! When I say friends I mean all of those pictured above, which were invited to her tea party. She even holds the cup for them and helps them drink. These are some of her favorite toys these days: her spud buds, Dora and her crew, Piggy and the Little People. She will set them up all throughout the house!

One of Annabelle's Christmas presents from us were these lady bug wings and antennae. She loves them! She'll put them on and run back and forth down the hall saying, "Fly, fly, fly, fly fly!" I definitely think she is hoping to fly by doing this. She is certainly our cute little bug.


Ahh, and the diaper mess. For two days this week, Belle decided that she didn't really need a nap. She played quietly in her crib most of the time and we occasionally heard her talking or singing to herself. Finally, we decided to get her out. As we walked in we noticed this pile of diapers on the floor! There were also some diapers in her crib. Upon further investigation we realized that she had also found her baby wipes and and pulled out every single one and had those strewn about the room as well! It was pretty funny! Moral of the story: move the diaper-changing basket out of her reach. Done.

What a fun girl! I can't wait for Charlotte and Belle to get together again! There were so cute together... and Charlotte loves tea parties (and making piles of diapers) too!
