watch this girl grow!

I asked Anna to hold off on the whole growing thing for a while (at least until I had a chance to blog about her a bit), but so far she has not complied:  every day she gets a little bigger and even sweeter.  Of the four girls, I'm pretty sure she is the cuddliest baby we've had, and I'm trying to savor every cuddle and snuggle I can while she's tiny.

I took her to the pediatrician last week for her two-month checkup.  She was up to 11 pounds, 10 ounces, and 22 1/2 inches.  She started "sleeping through the night" at around 5 1/2 weeks old (going a good 6-7 hours), and the last few weeks she has been sleeping 8 hours pretty consistently.  Anna smiles easily at her sisters, daddy, and mommy, and she loves to talk to us in sweet, earnest little coos.  When I talk back to her, Audrey always wants to know what Anna said to me.

Here are week-by-week photos of sweet Anna, minus a current 10-week photo, which I'll post soon with further updates:
