February: Collage! Anne was 16 months old, learning to use her spoon, and we still thought she had straight hair :)
March: Anne is 17 months old, and we see Sammy for the first time!
April: Annie is 18 months old and continues to astound us with her verbal skills. We celebrate Easter on a very chilly Sunday. The hair shows signs of curls!
May: Anne is 19 months old, and we have a big month. Anne and I travel to Chicago for Erin's graduation and to buy Bitty Baby (below). We missed Sam's 25th birthday to be there! Anne also gets her first haircut in preparation for Erin's wedding and her all-important role as flower girl.
June: 20 months old. We begin our summer of constant playtime and no school.
July: It gets hotter, I get more pregnant, and Anne gets cuter.
August: Sammy arrives!
and Anne gets pigtails
September: Anne is 23 months old, and Sammy turns 1 month old
October: Anne turns 2! We have a nice party, Sammy doesn't cry the whole time, and Sam and I marvel at what our life has very rapidly become.
November: We start to get the hang of having two kids. We learn that you just can't go anywhere or do anything! Either one adult goes or all 4 of us go. Going to Target for milk and diapers becomes an adventure.
December: I turn 26 (!) and Sammy will soon be 4 months old. It has been quite a year in the Westphall house!

Corrie, this is just awesome; hands down, the best year-in-review I have ever seen. You are extraordinary in all you do--as a woman, a girlfriend, a wife, a mother--and I'm proud to know you and count you as family. Beautiful work.
I love the recap :)
