Annabelle likes being the center of attention, and (sometimes) the boys like making her the center.

What can I say. We gave the boys bunk beds. They call them “bump beds”. As long as “bump” doesn’t become “jump” then they can call it whatever they want.

Robyn found bikes online for the boys. They came earlier this week, and with all the rain we haven’t been able to take them out until today (but we HAVE been riding them inside the house… which has been…. great…)
Next stop, the park!

It’s easy to forget that, sometimes, we have nice mornings where the boys play nicely with Annabelle. She loves when her brothers play with her.
One year old! One year ago today we had a txt conversation:
Aaron: Hey, how’d your 35 week appointment go?
Robyn: Oh, pretty good. We’re going to have a baby today. Call when you get a chance.
Aaron: …
One year of watching Annabelle grow from a fragile little infant to a mobile, babbling toddler. One year of two big brothers giving her love and (mostly) positive attention. A year full of smiles and giggles (and good sleeping! WOOO HOO!)
Anyway, the party was a big hoot. Great weather. Good friends. Loving family. We had a very good day!

Bathtime became a lot more fun for us when she decided to stop screaming bloody murder, and start enjoying herself. (Threesome bathtub experience to follow shortly.)
And how the heck is she going to be ONE YEAR OLD this month? How did THAT happen?
