Little Aggie

Isn't she so cute wearing her dad's hat!

I don't know why I go so long between posts, but I guess I need to play catch up again.
Last week I was bored so I decided that I would take Annika to Cabelas. She loved it. We went and walked around and looked at all of the animals. We were the only ones in the fish tunnel and she ran from one window to the next signing fish, and laughing. What a great free activity.



Last week Robin and Britney brought their boys over, and we played outside in the warm sun. It is great that we have friends from logan down here close, so that we can still get together. Annika and Corban found the bike trailer, and decided to sit in it for a while. I think it is so cute.



On Friday we went up to Logan to stay with my family. Jordan's birthday was on Thursday so we went up to celebrate. We had so much fun. On Saturday morning we met our good friends Ashley and Derek at Willow Park. We played on the playground and looked at all of the animals.

What a fun week.



oh p.s. I finally put Annika's hair in a pony tail. It was a lot of fun.
and here is a cute picture of her with her pig tails. She was playing peek a boo hiding behind her blanket. While we were waiting in the car somewhere.

My little Girl

So lately Annika has been doing a lot of new things. I haven't blogged in a while so I figured I may as well. Her hair is getting longer, and I was using curlers for a while, which were great. I could get a good curl in her hair in the back. It flips out and looks so cute! Well then the other day I was doing my hair and I thought, I bet I could use my flat iron to flip out Annika's hair too! Well I sat her up on the counter, and I told her to hold still. ( I might have given her a couple of things to distract her.) But she held still and my chi flips her hair out. It is so cute!

She has been such a girly girl lately. She got a cabbage patch doll for christmas when she was about the same size as the doll. Now she carries it around all day long! She gives it hugs, and kisses, she will even say baby! The other day we went over to one of Jen's friends house, Annika went over to her toy bin, and pulled out the one doll!

We bought a Shop Vac and I put it together the other day. It has a couple of extra parts so I put them together. The next thing I know, Annika is pushing it around, helping me vacuum. What a good helper. I decided I have to keep it with her toys now, because it is one of her favorite toys!

Annika always wants to be sitting on the counter, so she can be up high, and see what is going on. I decided that this isn't a good idea and I am trying to break the habit. It is so easy to sit her on the counter. But the other day in nursery Annika did not sit on her chair once. She stands on it. I think it has something to do with sitting on the counter. Anyways. It is so tempting to just sit her on the counter and do what I need to do. Well the other day, I was trying to do the dishes, and all Annika wanted to do was be held. So I got a great idea.... I can pull a chair over, she can stand on it, and she can see what is going on. Well it worked, she helped me with the dishes, and I got them done. However, I started thinking about the original problem, standing on chairs in nursery, and wondered.. Am I really solving the problem, or just making it worse. Oh well... we will have to see if she sits down in nursery on Sunday.

Last but not least, She loves Chapstick. When ever she sees me putting it on she puckers up her lips and wants some too! I just think that it is really funny. If I let her hold it, she will walk around putting it on for quite a while. I guess lately she just seems like such a little girl!
