This Could Be An Applebee's Ad

Andrina and I got to visit April and Anne yesterday. It was a really nice visit. We took the girls to toddler story time at the library. Andrina smiled and laughed while being held and sung to while I also did the "wheels on bus" and the "if you're happy and you know it" body motions with her. Andrina was doing so well during story time, so well behaved and noticeably enjoying the songs and books that you almost could not tell that she was so much younger than the other kids there. And Anne kept getting books to look at and she kept giving me Andrina's bottle to give to her. Awww!

Speaking of Anne, my little niece is a great kid. I know she means the world to April like Andrina does to me. And April is so proud of her. The more time I get to spend with Anne, the more I can see her like April does. She listens so well for a toddler and is a happy and bright kid. They are both great. Both so cute and sweet. Both are developing wonderfully too. It was so nice to see Anne again and see her interacting with Andrina more. I have to include a story about Anne, even if she's not my daughter:

All day long, Andrina had been drooling like a baby does (and maybe those teeth might be on their way...). And I had been wiping her mouth gently with a burp cloth every time I noticed her drooling. Well, the 4 of us were back at April's house and I was sitting down, holding Andrina on my lap facing outwards when I felt something wet hit my hand. Of couse I knew it was baby drool and I reached for the burp cloth and there was little Anne, standing right in front of Andrina, holding the burp cloth, and right away she used it to wipe Andrina's mouth! It was so cute and so sweet! April and I were amazed! I'm so happy we both got to see that. This was a new behavior for Anne. Anne must have noticed me wiping Andrina's mouth at the library when her little cousin drooled and she imitated it. It goes to show you that kids always notice what is going on around them.

Here's some pictures of Anne kissing her cousin Andrina, or "Baby" as Anne calls her. Anne happened to have her balloon from lunch with her too. These are such sweet pictures, they could be an ad for Applebee's.
