Um, Will and Krystal! Thank you for sharing your Anna bug with us! OMG. I have a happy tear in my eye and grinning from ear to ear because she is so stinkin' cute. And i can tell she's a mite sassy, too! WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE HER UP IN JULY WHEN WE WERE IN TOWN? WHY? She's so cute. Congrats on 2 years of parenting under your belt!
