Hannah's Birthday

I can't believe my baby is 1 already! this past year has gone by so incredibly fast! We are so blessed to have Hannah be a part of our family. She makes us smile everyday and has brought us so much happiness! Here are a few updates on the big girl:

1. She loves to walk and is now a pro (video to follow soon).

2. She is 20 lbs 7 oz (i think).

3. She talks all day long.

4. She loves to be outside, to swing, to climb stairs on the play structure and be with the kids.

5. She is in love with our neighbor. He is a 9 month old cutie. We approve. Hannah will be sad when he moves away though.

6. She still puts everything in her mouth!

7. She loves to eat.

8. She only says mommy and daddy, randomly, but can sign a little bit.

9. She really is a fun little girl and makes each day amazing!

For Hannah's birthday we went to a park so all the kids could play! Hannah had pretty much her whole family come to celebrate with her! Thank you everyone!

Here are a few kids enjoying the swings. Hannah is in there being pushed by her cousin.

Bad picture I know, but here is Hannah's birthday cake. Heather and my mom helped me a ton.

And here is the cake for Hannah to eat!

She loved it. She would grab a handful squish it a few times then like her fingers.

So these last 2 are random, but Here is Hannah's hair out of the bath. It really is super curly, but if we let it dry like this she would look like a crazy girl. Hopefully soon the ringlets will dry cute!

And here is Hannah wearing Chris's shirt, just for fun!

Car Seat Times

So we cheated and decided to install Hannah's car seat facing forward a week early! i am such a bad mom! She loved it! She loved looking out the windows and seeing all the cars and trees as we passed them by. I can't believe she turns 1 on Sunday!

Here is Hannah enjoying her car seat before we installed it in the car.

Then here she is in the car!! I love that she actually smiled for the camera!

After we went to the store we stopped for ice cream and then went to the park to play.

Then on the way home she took her first nap in it to test it out.

Of course the old car seat was now inside and she had to test this out again too! She loved crawling in and out of it. Much more fun since she didn't have to be strapped inside!

Fun Fun Fun

Hannah is almost 1!! I really can't believe how fast this past year has gone! She really is the joy in our lives! Everyday she learns new things and I can tell she is growing up so fast! She is pretty much walking now. She will just let go of our hands and keep going now! She is also just so funny!

Her new favorite things is to roll over and bury her head into anything on the floor (blankets, pillows). She thinks it is so much fun!

Here is Hannah in her strawberry outfit! She looked so so cute for church!

Here is a funny story. So, of course Hannah wants to touch all the electronic things we have...(we don't have a baby proof tv stand yet!) So the best solution we have or had was to put her toy box in front of the tv. It would, for the most part keep her away, since her toys would distract her before she got there. Well now Hannah is more mobil and learning to climb. Yesterday she learned how to get into her toy box so she could reach the electronics! Now we need a new solution!!

Here she is looking back at me, trying to see what I would do or see if she was in trouble....look at that face. She knows she is about to be told no!

So to distract her I just set her in with her toys and let her have fun!
