Annabelle was entered into a casting call for a baby shoe company but was disqualified for having too many votes. I guess if a picture had more than a certain number of votes per minute, they automatically disqualify you. Annabelle had over 19,000 votes by the time it was done. That’s ok, she’s a winner in my book! Thank you to everyone that went out and voted for her.
We got Annabelle’s 8 month pictures taken. She was in a really bad mood that day but the photographers were great and still got some good shots. It’s hard trying to figure out which pictures we're going to replace with the new ones. Mason says “Why do we have to replace them, we’ll just get more picture frames.” If we leave it up to him every square inch of our walls will be covered in Annabelle’s pictures. :)
Annabelle is now saying “momomomomom” or just “MOM” sometimes. I don’t think she understands I’m Mom yet but it’s really cool to hear. She still says “da da da da da da” but now sometimes she says DOG! I think she may even know what dog means because she looks right at Koden and yells DOG.
She’s getting so close to officially crawling. She’s been able to get around for a while now by rolling and squirming but now she gets on all fours and pushes off with one knee. Now she just needs to figure out how to get the other knee going at the same time. The video below was from a week or so ago and she has even improved her technique since then.
We are very excited for Annabelle’s first Halloween. We got her a pumpkin last weekend that will be big enough for her to sit in. We can’t wait to carve it with her. It’s been so long since I’ve carved a pumpkin, I hope I didn’t forget how.
Hope everyone has a Happy and Safe Halloween!
