Bedtime Fun

Every evening we spend some time in Hannah's room.  We practice our singing, jumping, and general roughhousing.  It's always nice to get the baby all riled up right before bedtime!

Thanksgiving!

What could be better than family, food, wine (thanks Melissa!) and babies!!!  Hannah and her cousin, Gracie had a wonderful time playing together.  The guys had a fun time together also!

Giving Thanks

Here are some things to be thankful for!
To go from this-


To this!

And also this!!!

Mojo

Look at this fancy footwork. She gets her moves from her mama!

Potty Training 101

I thought I would get the potty out and let Hannah get used it. I wouldn't want her to be scared, stressed out, intimidated or any of the other horrors described in books. It looks like that is not really a concern. She made herself at home instantly! And yes, those are the car keys that I was looking for the other day.

Say What?

Mini Me...or not

Does she still look exactly like Paul? 

Does she look at all like me? 

At all? 

 A smidge?

Daddy and Me Drive In

Cassie's school sponsored a Daddy and Me Drive In. First they made cars out of cardboard boxes. Then they "drove" them into the gym to watch a movie. How fun! Of course, Paul couldn't just make a car like everyone else. He made a Hummer with a sunroof and cupholders! (That's EXACTLY what my Daddy would have done too!) Cassie had the best vehicle there!
P.S.- When viewing these pictures some of you may see what looks like clothes thrown on the floor of my house. There must be something wrong with your monitor. You might want to get that checked out. We always fold our clothes neatly and put them away.

This is NOT a trampoline video...

But it's close! When it is too cold to go outdoors, one must improvise! Turn down your speakers for this- high, squeaky voiced mommy returns!

My Name is Hannah

That's my name!  Don't wear it out!

A Day at the Park

While I was working, Grandma Lisa took the kids to the park!  Hannah got to ride a dinosaur, drive a school bus, check herself in the mirror, tame a wild duck, do some math on a giant abacus, and brave the treacherous rides with her brother.  They fed the ducks too, but apparently Hannah ate a lot of the duck bread!

What a day!

This little girl has a lot of love! She kisses pretty much everything, including her shoes!

Obligatory Halloween Photos

Everyone knows that if you have children and have a blog you are REQUIRED by bloglaw to post costume pictures. Hannah lasted about 4 houses worth of candy then fell asleep in her duck costume in the car. It's very tiring to beg candy from strangers. Her brother and sisters had enough stamina to last the whole neighborhood. They have enough candy to be recycled for Easter. (not that I do that) We were quite an odd group: 2 vampires, a Pink Lady and a duck. It takes all kinds!
