It has been a whole month since a post. Part of the problem is busyness and part of it is that Annalise is in a mode where she doesn't want her pictures taken. We have to be super stealthy to get one.
Annalise loves to sit on the potty. She doesn't actually go but she sits, and wipes, and flushes, and washes her hands. She is so proud of herself!
We were happy to celebrate Daddy's birthday this month.
Daddy got golf clubs for his birthday and she went around the house hitting the ball.
When she got bored with the ball she starting hitting other things. Needless to say she no longer gets to play with Daddy's golf clubs.
We went to California for five days to surprise my brother on his 40th birthday. Annalise loves Matt (possibly more than the rest of her family combined). The whole trip was pure bliss for her! She loves her cousins house and she had a great time.

This is a more realistic picture of Annalise. She doesn't like to be contained or constrained. So any time you ask her to pose she pulls out the tears.
She went to town on the wooden rocking horses.
Annalise had no fear whatsoever about the petting zoo. She was feeding the goats and the sheep carrots from her hand and giggling the whole time.
The highlight of the trip was the pony ride. Annalise has always loved horses but she has never gotten to ride a real one. We have definitely decided to give her riding lessons when she gets a little older. I don't think she has ever had more fun then she did on the pony!
We sure love her super sweet smile!
