Anna wants to be involved with everyone and everything. Max and Kate have learned to play up high if they do not want Anna to touch and expect her to climb in their fort when they are on the floor. She moves pretty fast and can easily get from sitting to crawling. So we had to put up a gate to her room and we had to start using the retractable gates at the top and bottom of the stairs. 
This month she made two big trips - one to the beach and one to Maine. She did really well in the car and on the plane. She warms up quickly to new people or people she has not seen in a while. Sometimes, she will be serious for a minute and look at me like "do we know this person?" and I talk to the person and she smiles and is ready to be friends. She was very interested in her baby cousin and constantly wanted to touch him. 
She is communicating well with a few words, pointing, reaching and tossing. She points to things and says "dare(there)!". She especially gets excited about things that fly around like birds, bees, and butterflies. She has added a few words to her repertoire - ball, dare, iss (this), dat (that), baba (bottle).
She loves her little stuffed animals especially the little ones that have stringy arms and legs so she can hold on tight. She seems to always have Baby Bunny (a gift from Aunty Lana) or the Baby
Bear (a gift from Mimi) in her arms. She drags them all around and I
have even let her sleep with one or the other a few times and found her
curled up around it - so stinkin' cute!

She enjoys playing with her toys. A bowl and spoon can entertain her but variety is the spice of life so we have been pulling out more toys from Kate and Max. Max likes to set up her farm "the right way" then she pulls everything out and opens and closes the barn doors a hundred times. Kate sets up the doll house and Anna pulls everything out and throws it everywhere and then opens and closes the toilet seat (it flushes) a hundred times. Oh sweet Baby Girl, your smile lights up our world. We love you so much!
