Happy 1st Birthday Princess!


Wow, this year has gone by so fast! It seems like just yesterday that I went into labor on Jeff's birthday and then had a beautiful baby girl early Halloween morning. It's been so much fun watching Hannah learn and grow. She has such a sweet smile and is really getting a fun little personality. She loves playing with her big brother Jeffrey. She has been officially walking for weeks now and follows Mommy wherever she goes. She is starting to talk a lot more and understand the things we are saying to her. She had her 1 year check up this week and is now weighing in at 20 lbs. 8 oz. (3 lbs more than Jeffrey weighed at this age). She is still in the 90th percentile for height, which is kind of funny if you know us. She is such a pleasure to feed because she'll eat anything and everything.

We had a family party this weekend to celebrate. The weather was so nice that we decided to have a little BBQ and let the kids play outside. Hannah was spoiled with lots of wonderful gifts. Thank you to everyone! When it came time to sing Happy Birthday she wasn't quite sure what to do with the cake until Aunt Erin held it up and let her take a bite. Then she loved it and couldn't get enough. It was a really fun day. We love our little Hannah Banana!


Here are the kids at the party having fun with the goodies in their party bags. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the birthday girl herself to sit for the picture.
