Happy 13 months Hannah Claire

Climbing up into the Drawer

Whew...I made it without mommy telling me NO..NO

Taking a break to brush my hair

Now, lets move on to the 2nd drawer...wonder if there is anything in here for me?!

Mom, this really is fun! See how happy I am when you let me do what I want!

Loving on My Big Sister


Hannah, you are 13 months old today! You are for sure a "little monkey"....from climbing the steps from top to bottom to climbing all over my cabinets/drawers! But, no matter what you get into....I am loving every minute of being your mommy! Here is just a few things you are up to at this point in your precious life!

1. You are still not walking completely on your own yet...5 steps alone is the most you have taken. No Rush!
2. You love just about anything I put in your mouth, especially mandarian oranges and Yo Baby Yogurt.
3. You love...love...love the bath or shower, cry everytime we make you get out!
4. You love for mommy or daddy to read bedtime stories to you, and most of all you love to help turn the pages!
5. You love to go anywhere and are always so good in the car!
6. You got a flu shot last week and didn't even cry...wow..I wish mommy was that brave!
7. You love baby dolls! Your Big Sister does too!
8. You love sweets...especially Little Debbie Oatmeal Pies.
9. When you smile you often crinkle up your nose..I LOVE THIS!
10. You love to try and color with your big sister in her coloring books. This really frustrates her, but one day she will understand that you just like doing what she does!
11. You love to give hugs and kisses...all we have to do is ask...and sometimes you volunteer.
12. You are so crazy about your Big Sister! You can just see the light in your eyes when you see her when she comes home from school.

Today mommy has got to spend all day with you! I loved every minute of it! From the mid morning nap together to playing baby dolls in the playroom, you are such a little doll. Once again, I am so thankful that you are mine and that God allowed me to be your mommy. I took some photos this weekend of you playing in my cabinet drawers, this is a constant battle. However, I try not to complain..or when I do...I think back to the song "It won't be like this for long."

XOXO,
Mommy
