Anna wide awake, Jonathan sleeping

NOTE: Scroll down to the bottom and pause the song so you can hear Anna.
Tonight Jonathan was tired and went to bed very early. Anna, on the other hand, got a 4 hour nap this afternoon so she was wired even at 9:3opm. We pulled out the digital camera and got some good clips. In this first video, Anna is coloring with finger paints and shows how she loves talking about the serious work at hand.

There is a funny game I play with Anna every once in a while where I ask Anna whose baby she is. Most of the time she'll say she's Dada's baby which annoys Jamie a little because of the amount of time I spend with Anna is so much less. However, on this unlucky night for me, Anna was Mama's baby.

Anna has been asking for Elmo diapers constantly every time we change her lately. Finally, tonight we broke down and got her some Elmo diapers at the store. Immediately when we returned home carried the bag of diapers to Mama and told her that she had peed and needed Mama to change her. We also noticed yesterday that one of Anna's teeth was chipped. We're not sure how she did it and since she's so rough and tumble it could've been about anything.

In this video we discuss supper and then afterwards we ask Anna about her hair cut. Apparently, one day Jonathan decided to give Anna a hair cut. What surpises us is how accurately he cut her hair considering he just started to cut paper a few months ago. I mean, he was no hair dresser, but he did about as well as I would've done. What also suprises us is how still Anna must've stayed while Buba cut her hair. It shows how she'll do anything to keep his attention.

Considering Anna is only two, she knows an amazing amount of letters. She knows as many letters as Jonathan, really. It all comes down to Anna loves attributing something to a specific person. When she found out that A was for Anna, D was for Dada, J was for Jonathan and M was for Mama, she was in love with letters.
