Madeline was a very musical child. It’s becoming quite clear that Annabel is just as into music. She smiles whenever Mike plays his guitar. If there is music playing on TV she turns her little body. When she’s fussy, I sing to her and she calms right down. It’s pretty amazing how quickly her musical talents have developed. Check out what she put together for us (sound is important on this one).

Annie in da ho-ouse!

That is so awesome, LOVE IT!
Kate @ UpsideBackwards says:
Lovelovelove it! She is so gorgeous. That deserves to go viral on YouTube
My kids are musical too, especially the youngest. I can hear her singing herself to sleep right now… so sweet. (But I wish she would go to sleep already, it’s been an hour).

This was awesome!! It makes me feel so warm and fuzzy inside that you spend time on making fun videos like this – working together on it, and what a fun project for Annie to look back on someday. The stop motion was incredible – for a second there I was thinking “OMG, they really propelled that bumpy seat down the hallway!”. Really an amazing video.

Don’t tell my kids I said this but, Annie is pretty much the coolest baby I’ve ever seen. Also, the most articulate.
I know it’s exciting and great when babies learn to actually talk, but there are so many people, myself included, who are going to be bummed when these videos end because Annie has her own things to say. Although those are going to be awesome videos too.

When I saw the link I clicked it and was taken back in time. I have to admit I teared up a bit while watching Maddie ‘gettin’ down with her bad self’ (my teens would have SO told me ‘uh….no….just no’ when I wrote that!)
From what I can see though Annie is just like her sister. Right down to the smiles at the end.

Stacy says:
My daughter Isabelle (6 yrs) is going to flip out when I show her this! About a week ago she saw me looking at one of your videos, and had to watch ALL of them. What Annie Did while Mommy barfed is her fave. We’ve literally watched it too many times to count. She tells EVERYONE (including random waitresses when we are out to eat) about “the cutest baby ever” and the “Annie Show”. Every day she asks me if there’s a new “Annie Show” for her to watch. This is going to make her day, and I’m sure we’ll view this ALL weekend long. She even made me pull up your videos on Mother’s Day when we were at my Aunt’s house so she could show her Aunties, Grandma, and Great-Grandma the “Annie Show”. As much as we love good re-runs as the next girl, new ones make our day!
Annie, you are gorgeous! And Isabelle is your biggest fan. She thinks it’s wicked cool that you have similar “belle” names. She pretends you’re her baby sister (she has a “stiny baby brother (2 1/2)”) I’m sure she’ll want your autograph soon.
