Hello again everyone!!
Annie here. It's hard to believe but another six (well, seven
actually) months have passed and it's already time for another update
from your favorite toddler... Annie!
I am now 30 months old or, as we girls like to say, 29 (again). I
weigh 25.5 pounds and stand 35.5 inches tall. And, the really big
news... I'm potty trained!! Although... when it comes to spankies
(and, yes, I get a few) I sorta miss my old diapers.
You are all invited to experience the fast paced world of Annie
firsthand, so just drop a weekend feeder in the fish tank and hop in
the car and come see me. Tootles for now...
Hugs and Kisses... Annie

I really keep Mom and Dad on the go. We like to do all sorts of
things... take puppies for walks, ride my bicycle and big wheel, look
for fishies, throw rocks in the water, go swimming, swing, and climb
(on just about anything!). Every Tuesday, I take Mom and Dad to the
playground where we swing and slide and climb and jump - all the fun
stuff. Sometimes Mom and Dad pretend that they're too old for this
sorta stuff, but I know better...
Now that the weather is hot, one of my favorite things to do is to go
swimming. I swim just about every day; sometimes in our really nice
neighbors' pool and sometimes in our lake and some days both! I
especially like to do 'the big jump' off the high dive into Mommy or
Daddy's waiting arms. Our neighbors have lots of great water toys;
rafts and inner tubes and noodles - I make sure to play with them all,
especially the one that Mom wants.
I also really like to ride my bike. The Easter Bunny brought me a nice
two wheeler with coaster brakes and training wheels that I can now
pedal and, more importantly, steer. I'm still workin' on using the
brakes, though - fortunately Mom or Dad is always there to slow me down
when the need arises. I especially like to pedal half way around the
lake then have Dad carry my bike the rest of the way - I think he likes
it too.
