There has been an excessive amount of drool coming from Anya these days and I finally figured out why....she's teething. It's hard when she's fussy because it's not like she is old enough to have control of her arms and hands to hold any teething soothers in her mouth. Poor girl.

Anya's belly button fell off last night. She's already grown a considerable amount. We realized this the other day when we put her in the car seat. We had to readjust the straps and her head filled the padding that supports her head...there used to be quite a gap. It's hard to really take notice of her growth since we're with her all of the ( Read more... )
