Dear Aj
You are just to cool for words. As your mother I have the right to put you in cute customs and use funny props and this is on of those times. You have taken to grabbing at everything and anything, including my sunglasses. So I just went ahead and put them on you and you just thought it was the funniest thing. What I thought was even funnier was that they fit you almost perfectly. So does Mommy just have a small head or does Aj have a big one?

I am finding that when I have something amazing to record it tends to come in a cluster. I am proud to announce that this week proud moments are

1. You woke up from your afternoon nap the other day and were kind of hanging out. Not really crying, just talking and at some points getting a little fussy. I can not remember what I was doing, something that I had to finish before I came in to get you. You continued to entertain your self for a couple minutes, I finished doing what ever I was doing and walked into you room and found you sitting up in your crib!!! You fell asleep on your back (you may have rolled on to your tummy, but I am not sure) at some point you figured out how to pull your self up to a sitting postion. Needless to say that Daddy lowered your crib right away

2. I was reading an article that said you should be able to start standing while holding on to objects. I had yet to try to see if you could do it and was curious. For some time you have enjoyed standing when we hold your hands so I could not see why you would not be able to.  Sure enough we tried to see if you could stand while holding on to your entertainment center and you did it! Now you have a blast standing on the couch and holding on the back or holding on to the coffee table and smacking your hands against the surface.

This past Sunday was my first Mothers Day, your Daddy did a wonderful job picking out the perfect necklace, but if you were to ask him he will tell you that he had nothing to do with it. His story is that "you Annie and your piggy bank snuck out on Saturday night bought me a necklace that had a S for Sabline and an A for Aj as well as a beautiful bouquit of peach roses" Your Daddy is so silly!

Love
Mommy
