- She started walking and talking at 11 months. She doesn't have an extensive vocabulary yet (her words consist of hi, bye, daddy, mommy, kitty, dog, bottle and bear), as she is concentrating more on her career as a stunt woman. She enjoys standing on things that she shouldn't...like toys that have wheels, shopping carts, etc...and now that she has figured out how to climb onto the couch, she spends a lot of time looking for new and interesting ways to jump/fall/dive off of it.
- She's a world traveler! We took a 10-day trip to Venice in June (she already has TWO stamps in her passport) and I am happy to report that she is an excellent travel companion. She slept the entire flight over to Europe, was pretty easy going no matter what we were up to, and thoroughly enjoyed being treated like a little rock star by all of the friendly foreigners.
- She loves books (yeah!) and she still loves to dance. As soon as music comes on (stupid commercials, a musical ring tone, anything!), she is up and shaking her groove thing...she's got some pretty good moves for a toddler. (thank goodness she didn't inherit Dan's lack of rhythm!)
As for me, I love being a mommy...Anabella melts my heart every single day. Of course, I am still addicted to Target, Starbuck's, and buying stuff from infomercials (ask me about the TurboJam workout). I still watch a lot of worthless TV shows (has anyone seen Junk Brothers, Workout or Meercat Manor?) and I spend lots of time being introspective...in a crazy, bored kind of way.
