. . .And She's Off!

Today Anna crawled!!  I have been suspecting that Anna was crawling for a little while now but had never been able to catch her in action until today.  She has been a sneaky crawler!  Her boyfriend, Cayden at daycare started crawling last week so I figured it would be no time before Anna was chasing after him.  I came home from work out today and  Dave had Anna on the floor and she was crying.  The daycare worker told him that Anna was crawling all over the place today at daycare and Dave wanted to see her crawl.  About 2 seconds after Dave walked out the door Anna(pitifully crying) crawled to me to pick her up!!  I was met with mixed emotions.  On one hand I am excited that she is growing up and on the other hand I am sad that she is growing up.

Then I go to give Anna a bath and as I am running the water, she is clapping!  She loves water and was so excited to be getting a bath that she was clapping.  It was the first time I have seen her clap and it was precious.

These are the moments that just make me smile and thank God for the blessing named Anna.  I love being a mom and just didn't know how much I could love someone so little until I had Anna.  Her smile can make my day no matter what else is going on.  I look forward to each moment I have with her because I know each moment is precious.  I love my husband and daughter and really could not ask for anything more.  So milestone crawling: check.  Milestone walking: in progress.
