Rolling girl!

Anna rolled from tummy to back about 10 times tonight. She's done it before, but this is the first night she's done it consistently. I love that she is doing new things...I don't love that she is already four months old. Slow down, little girl!!

Talkative Anna at 12 weeks

Anna is now 12 weeks - I cannot believe how quickly the time has passed. Her little personality is developing more and more each week. She is still an incredibly easygoing baby. I'm so thankful for that!! Right now, we're counting down the days until Mike gets home to meet her! Here's a video of her "talking" while I was getting her ready for bed tonight.

Panda feet

Anna was completely intrigued by the pandas on her feet!

Anna at 7 weeks

Anna's little personality is coming out more and more. She is still such a sweet girl. She's a great sleeper and rarely ever cries. Here's some new videos:

All of the kids LOVED the baby gym - especially the music-playing star that hangs from the top. Ryan was a super fussy baby and this was the only thing that soothed him. Caitlin, well, I sadly don't really remember her as a baby, except that she was really happy and relatively easy, so I'm sure she enjoyed the star! And Anna stares and smiles at it, talks to it, and gets so excited every time the music plays.

Smiley Anna

Anna first started giving us half smiles on Christmas Eve and they've continued to get bigger and more frequent. Here are some recent videos of her:

Her little personality is really starting to develop. She's an easy-going, flexible baby which I am SO thankful for. During my pregnancy, I prayed that she would be an easy baby that liked to sleep -- so far, that's what I have. Praise God!!

Merry Christmas!

Here's some of pictures from our Christmas festivities this year. We had three action-packed days of celebrating with most of our family and extended family.

Daddy's Toes

Anna not only looks the most like Mike, she shares his toes! Mike has "webbed" toes between his 2nd and 3rd toe. Here is Anna's left foot - notice how her toes are webbed. She doesn't have it on her right foot, but I think it's so sweet that she has toes just like her daddy!

Anna's big debut

Our sweet, angelic Anna did an excellent job at tonight's Christmas Eve service. Pastor Dan carried her out on stage and talked about her representation as baby Jesus. She slept through the entire thing! Here's a glimpse at her big moment on stage:

The service was incredible and I highly encourage you to go sometime tomorrow if you're available. There are four services on December 24: 1, 3, 5, and 7pm. For more information check out www.goldcreek.org.
