Waking Up

When I go into Anna's room in the morning or after a nap whe will typically be lying still if she is awake but as soon as she hears me enter the room, she gets into a mad scramble on all fours and starts grabbing all of her pacifiers and crawling all over her crib. It reminds me of when you're taking a nap and the phone rings and the caller asks "were you sleeping?" and you always reply "no!"

Since Anna stopped nursing last month she has wanted to cuddle when she wakes up. This week it has turned into a frantic need to read a book when she wakes up. She signs "book" over and over as soon as I pick her up out of the crib. It's too bad, I liked the cuddling! But, we are enjoying some more of her books now and I'm glad she seems to like reading so much. She is asking to read more than just Goodnight Moon at night, too. I'm limiting it to three books for now (including Goodnight Moon).
