Anna At 19 Months

so sweet... I love seeing the interesting clothing combos my daughter comes up with. I'm sure this will become an awesome scrapbook layout soon... but until then isn't it great to have our blogs to record these precious memories & fun little quirks they have at different ages?

She is adorable! And I love her style :)

Great series of photos and memories! My son is now 4 and I really miss those sweet times. I think I recognize one of his favorite pop-up books "Wheels on the Bus". We also have "Knick-Knack Paddywhack" by the same author!

Hi Ali...where are the nesting red suitcases from...love them!

LOVE this post and the wonderful things you have to say about your daughter's relationships to the family and the world....BUT not for nothin' woman! YOU.LOOK.AWESOME. It is obvious that you super secret word of the year (athelete) looks good on you! MUST catch up on blog entries I have missed!

I just love Anna. She's soft and sweet and she always has a look that says she is wise beyond her years (oops...19 months). mac

Love, Love, Love all of the pictures, especially where Simon is reading her a book!!! She is growing up so fast!!!

Wow! Love your words. Love the picture of Simon reading a book to Anna; Anna sitting in his lap. So so cute!! Love the picture of you and Anna. Thanks for sharing your stories with us.

It is a lovely pics those you take. I love reading your blog. Everytime i read you post your kiddos, i am thinking my kiddos too, their ages different is pretty close to my kiddos. I am thinking how could you manage them at home and your work.

The photo of Anna "the explorer" looking out the window with the binoculars is so wonderful. The blinds are pulled just to the top of her hat so she can see through the window straight ahead, her stance is well-placed and solid, and she appears to be searching for something new and wonderful on the horizon. Such a grown up action from a lovely little girl. She will be a world explorer for sure! Thank you for sharing.....that photo made my day!

Gosh it's been fun to watch your girl grow! She is adorable and reflects all the love in her life! Lucky Anna! Lucky us to get to experience some of her life. Thanks. And I agree with Fran (#50) that the binocular picture is wonderful!

Adorable! They grow up so fast, don't they?

Hi Ali,
Love your pictures! They are always so clean and soft! You are a great inspiration!
I know you mentioned awhile ago where you got the print with Anna's name on it but I can't seem to find the post when you mentioned it. Do you happen to remember? I think you said from Etsy? Do you remember the seller perhaps? Thank you

So sweet, Ali.

She sounds like a pretty awesome little girl.

Awh, so cute. It's great to record monthly as kids grow up way too fast. My hubby and I were marvelling this morning over just how lucky we are.

Anna is precious, and I love the way you listed so many interesting facets of her personality. Cherish every moment - it seems as if my daughter should still be that little, but I just returned from a trip halfway across the country to help her move into an apartment for her senior year in college. I wish I had recorded my feelings and so much about her when she was small. Photos are only part of the equation, and I am so inspired by your journaling. Enjoy those beautiful children of yours!

Oh Ali, she's just so beautiful and spunky too! Much like you!

You are truly blessed. What a beautiful little angel.

Ali you sure a blessed:)
