Hey party peeps!
As you may have seen in my mommy’s video last week, I’ve started walking. I’m almost embarrassed to link back to that video because man, I am sooooo much better at walking now than I was a week ago! I can now stand up without any help, and I can walk for really long distances without falling down.
All I want to do is walk. Last night, mommy and daddy took me to a restaurant and tried to strap me into a highchair. FOOLS! I spent the meal strolling around the restaurant, clutching a quesadilla while mommy and daddy took turns walking behind me. I made so many new friends! The mariachi band played a lively number that made me dance. No one told me how fun dancing could be. I was really missing out.
On the way home, mommy said something about “getting a babysitter from now on.” NO ONE better sit on me!
The best part about walking now is being able to adequately chase Rigby. She may have been here first, but it’s time she learned I’m the boss of her. Last weekend at Gramma and Bampa’s house, I was in charge of letting Rigby into the backyard to do her “doggy business.” That also meant I was responsible for yelling at her to come back in the house! She definitely listened.
With my excellent climbing ability and new walking skills, I’m pretty confident nothing can stop me now.
Look out world!
P.S. I’m going to be showing off my walking skills at the march for my sister! I know she’d be super-proud of me. Hope to see you there!
Katrina @ They All Call Me Mom says:
Wow, Annie! Look at you go!
And yes…I can’t wait to see you showing off your walking skills at the March for Babies walk! I bet by then you’ll be showing off your RUNNING skills!
I’ll be there…with my running shoes…in case I need to chase you down
Pgoodness says:
Yay for walking!!!! ;).
InDueTime says:
Go, Annie, Go!
Lisa says:
Way to go, Annie!! Nothing will stop you now, the world is yours for the taking.
Jenn says:
OOHHh Boy!!! Watch out for that little one!!! Climbers are the worse!!! My youngest son LOVED to climb when he was her age. His favourite thing to do is climb on top of my dinning room table and laugh his little head off. It was so frustrating!!! Wait ’til she discovers trees! ha ha
Good Luck!!!

roh- roh. watch out world!
Lynn from For Love or Funny says:
I still follow my kids around – and they’re teens. Usually they lead me to volleyball and lacrosse games…
AmazingGreis says:
Yaye Annie! Can’t wait to see you walking and talking and possibly head butting me in a few weeks!!!
kbreints says:
uh-oh! now the real fun begins!
Melissa says:
Go Annie! You show them who’s boss!
BTW… I read that entire post with “Annie Speak” in my head without even realizing it until the end. LOL.
Nicole says:
I totally read that in Annie-voice. : )
Go Go Annie, Go!!!
Jess says:
I hear the Annie-voice too, ahah!
Mommy says:
Me toooo! I thought I was the only one!! I even did a mental “Peace Out!” at the end!
Noelle says:
Me too! lol I was thinking this would be perfect dialogue for another Annie video.
Elizabeth says:
Way to go Annie!!!
Elle says:
Yay for Annie! Your parents are in trouble now, ruh roh.
Jamie says:
Dear Annabel’s Mommy and Daddy,
From these pictures I can say that you are in trouble. Annabel will soon be climbing all of the things. Good luck!
Love,
The mommy of another spider monkeyesque baby.
Pattie says:
Amazing! Way to go, Annie.
JenT says:
Yea Annie! My son is exactly one month younger then you and he just started walking last week!!! Like your mom, I’m AMAZED at the difference a week can make! You kids sure learn fast!!!
Jeni says:
She is ready to get out there and walk for her sister!! I am sure that Maddie would be so happy!!
Mommy says:
OMG that picture of her on the piano kills me!! She’s like, “What? I’m not allowed to do this?”. LOL!! What a sweetie pie!! Can’t wait to see you at the walk!!!
Donna P says:
You’re going to need a bigger baby fence. Much bigger.
Andrea says:
Wahoo!! Watch out world!!
Kelly says:
Oh, boy…here we go. You guys are going to be in big trouble.
Glenda says:
I agree! Watch out Heather and Mike! lol…
Love the picture standing on the piano… it’s like she’s saying “yea I’m staning on the piano…and???!!!”
Annie you are Adorable!!!
Megan says:
Wow, Annie! You have really learned a lot of new words since you won that argument with your dad the other day!
Snarky Mommy says:
Is it weird that I read this entire post with Heather’s “Annie voice” narrating it in my head?
Kristin says:
There’s no stopping her now.
renee says:
I find it amazing that you were able to walk so well on that psychedelic carpet–is it me or is the room kinda spinning because of that carpet?!
The world is now officially your playpen darling.
Missy says:
Climbers are SO much fun! I recommend finding a gymnastics class for her as soon as she’s old enough… You can usually find Mommy & Me classes starting around age 2. LOVE the picture. Kinda looks 3D…. Makes me feel like I’m zooming through the stars!
Ray says:
Too damn cute! And way to go Annie for walking! Please do tell: Where’d mommy & daddy get you that adorable red piano from? I’d love to get one for my baby cousin, Mikaela. ;o)
