Visitors, peek-a-boo, and other happenings

It feels as though, over the last week or so, Anna's had an explosion of learning. She's fully laughing now, not just sort of wheezing like she used to. She also enjoys peek-a-boo, "sings" along while you sing to her, and is now doing half circles in her crib (meaning when I lay her down, a few minutes later her head is where her feet used to be). Her Mimi was over earlier today, and she commented that Anna is even beginning to scoot so that she can play with something - evidently, she was working to get at a little squeaky toy on her playmat and was pushing as hard as she could to get over there. It never fails to amaze me how quickly she learns and picks up on things - she's just a little sponge!

This last week, Anna got to meet her Aunt Amy for the first time, which was so much fun. Of course, I didn't get any pictures, because I'm terribly forgetful - but she really was here, and it was wonderful to get to see her. Our friends Steven and Lindi also came to visit this weekend - we did get pictures of them (!), so they're posted below.

I'm also posting a video of tickle time, as well as some pictures of Anna in her new playroom. Jimmy and I spent most of our weekend last weekend working on getting the playroom ready - the best part about it is that it has magnetic paint on the bottom half! We're excited to start teaching her letters and numbers on her magnetic wall.
