Hmmm... I'm beginning to wonder if it's just a two year old thing or if she's picked up on Mommy's very picky eating habits!
Things Anna Won't Eat:
1. Cow's Milk
2. Bananas--one bite, and the rest is on the floor.
3. Pizza!
4. Peanut butter & Jelly Sandwiches
5. Bread of sandwiches (which probably explains the PB&J since you can't peel out the ingredients).
6. Soups of any kind
7. Apples (This used to be #1 on her list of loves, now she refuses to touch 'em!)
Things She Does Eat:
1. Chocolate (She's her mother's daughter alright!)
2. Cheese! (She loves cheese! At least I know she can get her calcium this way... maybe she's lactose intolerant and cow's milk hurts her tummy? I dunno...)
3. Yogurt (I can get her to eat this! Thank goodness!)
4. Juice. (She's always asking for it, so I dilute it. It works! She doesn't know the difference.)
5. Cheeseburgers (Her father's daughter here.)
6. Seafood (Her father's daughter once again. Mommy hates seafood, but Anna has eaten shrimp *shudder*, salmon, and imitation crab *shudder* and has liked it all.)
7. Pasta (Thank goodness she likes pasta! I love it!)
8. Grapes and most fruit (except for the two names above) and most veggies (except onions).
9. Boobie. (We're down to once a day, but she asks for it several times per day.)

My DH Has An Internship!!!
My hubby was asked by his professor today if he wanted to intern this summer at his Radio Station! How awesome is that?! :D He's very excited! It's such a blessing, opportunity, and compliment!
Anna Meme
1. What is something mom always says to you? "Anna! Only paper!" (She likes to draw on herself and other objects! It used to be, "Anna, get down!" but now this one is occurring much more often!)
2. What makes mom happy? - Anna laughing, smiling, being silly. Saying silly new things. The new thing is, "Daddy, where are you?" or "Mommy, where are you?" or "Pung, where are you? etc. etc. etc.
3. What makes mom sad? - When Anna gets hurt-- It's so sad!
4. How does your mom make you laugh? I chase her... we run, tickle, laugh...
5. What was your mom like as a child? - Too bad Anna can't voice this answer... it would be a pretty cute answer.
6. How old is your mom? - Also, wish she could answer. I wonder what she would say? (I'm 24 btw.)
7. How tall is your mom? Wish I knew what she'd say here, too. (I'm 5'1 3/4")
8. What is her favorite thing to do? Say, "Wanna play?" or "Wanna run?" and watch cartoons and color....... the list goes on...
9. What does your mom do when you're not around? Wish I knew what her answers would be, but if you really wanna know, I take bubble baths.
10. If your mom becomes famous, what will it be for? (Insert cute answer from Anna.)
11. What is your mom really good at? Mommy likes to write, just fyi.

21. What does your mom like most about your dad? His beautiful eyes!
22. Where is your mom's favorite place to go? The ocean!
(Really, you're supposed to have your child/children answer these questions... but oh well... you get the jist, now you can go and play this meme with your child. If I were to ask Anna these questions, she'd probably answer, "I don't know." or "Wan' pway?")

Been a While
Anna is going to have her two year pictures (finally) this weekend. We finally have the money (thank you NU returns!) so that will finally be done. Now, all I have to do is choose her outfit. My friend Violet got Anna this cute little dress with apples and an undershirt with a collar that i think will be just adorable... I think that'll be the dress I'll put her in--but don't hold me to it. I tend to change my mind often! :D

Things Change Fast
I was surprised b/c this week the little boy we watch is rolling across the room and sitting up for extended periods of time--he's getting strong fast!
Anna woke up dry this morning, even after I gave her a drink, so I put her in undies and put her on the potty and she had her first pee on the potty--all without a tantrum!!! I was bowled over!

Anna Coloring
I had to make a video... unfortunately, it took the volume out, but here it is, Anna coloring in the letters of her coloring book--of course I think it's the most amazing thing in the world, so just indulge me. ;)
Feeding the Ducks
We went and fed the ducks yesterday. The ducks here are so ridiculously tame that they come right up to you and practically nip your fingers when you hand out the bread. Anna was laughing, though, even when her own finger was nipped. Then we went and played on the jungle gym forever. Anna is fearless. She was climbing all over that jungle gym like nobody's business.

"It's a pie!"
love how two year olds learn so much at this age. It's amazing how fast they all learn! We had Turkey Pot Pie last night and Anna kept wanting to CLIMB on the oven to take a look--ACK!!!--So, Paul got after her for that, but then he lifted her so she could look and she said (and I quote lol), "Hey! Look, Mama! It's a pie!" hahaha
I suppose it's only a matter of time before she says, "I want my own car, Mom." or "Matt asked me out on Saturday."--UGH! STAY TWO, ANNA!!!

POOP ON THE POTTY!
I'm so glad that I didn't have to change a poopy diaper or poopy underwear today because Anna went poop on the potty!!! :D :D :D She started grunting, so I took her into the bathroom and she pooped! I'm so glad!!! :D Here's to hoping that she starts telling me when she needs to do these things lol. Lately when I ask her if she needs to go pee, she says, "No, mommy." *sigh*
Stuff...
Well... let's see...
I've got class today, my writing class. I think it's a fun class... but I'm feeling dead-ended on my story. *sigh*
I have a psych test tomorrow and I'm really excited about it!
Anna & Jaden are getting along. I was paranoid for a while that I would make Anna jealous, but thankfully that hasn't been the case. Although, she has been more cuddly in the evenings, a thing that I've been loving & adoring!
Tonight is Bones!!! Gravedigger!
Anna needs a bath...
And our house smells like a dirty diaper. I think that it has something to do with Anna peeing on the floors--ARGH! Any suggestions on that front???
