our little ham

No, this isn't another fat baby post.  I'm talking about Anne's personality.  Our girl is so full of personality that I will be very surprised if she isn't a class clown.  It may just be her age, or those squeezable rolls, or her bright red curls, but I can't take her in a store without having several people gush over her.  Especially the grandmas.  Those old ladies seriously love them a red haired baby.  I even had one lady in New Jersey tell us, in a serious hushed voice, "She is going to be Miss America."  (of course, I was thinking PLEASE NO).  In fact, she has gotten so used to all the attention that she now expects it.  If someone walks by and does not comment, she will lean towards them, wave frantically, and flash her biggest smile.  And, don't get me started on our recent airplane trip.  That girl thought she was Naomi Campbell when we were walking towards our seat, smiling and waving at everyone on either side of the isle.  The smile she does when she thinks she is being cute is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen.  It is definitely not her natural smile but I can tell that she thinks it is her most charming one.  She scrunches up her nose and squints her eyes really tight and tilts her head up, and smiles.  I've tried to capture it on camera but I think I'll have to break out the camera in the grocery store to really catch her in action.  This is my best attempt but it really isn't close to portraying her ridiculousness.

Gosh, I love that girl.
