Pictures are back!

So we finally got the cord for the camera we have been borrowing so here is the first bit of pictures to catch up on. I'll go chronologically and start with her birthday. A celebration in two acts.

As you can tell, Anna thought the candle was pretty cool. She never did get blowing it out but she sure wanted to see what that orange glowy thing on top of it was. Fortunately, even though it did fall, it didn't catch anything on fire or burn any small fingers.

And it was yummy to boot. She figured out pretty quickly that the best part is the icing on the top and it should be eaten first. She did get around to eating the rest of the cake too.

Opening her present. It looks like Daddy is more excited about it than she is.

The present from Mommy and Daddy. It plays fun songs and everything. Fortunately she hasn't yet explored the options of the mallet.

Here is the doll that Aunt Megan got for her. She is still a little bit young for it but has been known to carry it around.

Here are the decorations from her party. There were pink balloons in each corner. Most of them are still full and being played with to this day. Side note, it's really hard to get a decent picture of the whole ceiling with a turned on light involved. I'm just saying.

Here is Anna with one of the girls from the party. Her name is Sage and they are pretty much the exact same age (Sage is a week older but who's counting?). For some reason, Anna thought it would be a good idea to sit on Sage's lap. As you can tell, Sage doesn't really know how to respond.

And Anna's second cake. This time I was able to get actual candles (rather than use the white emergency candle again) and went all out with writing and everything. Anna still didn't know what to do with the candle other than look at it but it still tasted good.

So that was Anna's birthday. Good times were had by all.
