Twas the Days Before Christmas

This year getting ready for Christmas and all that the festivities was completely different than last year. I say it a lot, but a year ceratinly does make a difference. We spent a lot of the Christmas holiday's with family. Hannah like the tree, loved touching the ornaments that she knew she wasn't supposed to touch and would try fairly often, especially when we had visitors. We did eventually move the ornaments up the tree, out of reach of little hands.


We went to spend some time at my parents house while they had my neices over to bake cookies. We didn't help with the cookies, but Hannah did dress the part like her cousins did. The apron is an apron from some stuffed animal.



I love these p.j.'s, we got them from Wes' cousins who live in Australia. I couldn't wait to put htem on her, we got them during their "Christmas". She was truely "Santa's Helper".
I love this face. I don't know where she learned to make that face, but she has done it since she was real little. It's really cute. Wes said that she has seen me do it, I don't know about that, but this little girl is so adorable and yes, I know she is mine.

We did Christmas with Wes' family a few days before Christmas. She didn't care so much about the actual presents that she received, but LOVED the ribbon. She held onto that ribbon and walked around the room over and over and over again. Tell me again why we spent all that money on the "real" girfts?

Remembering the Good Old Days

Hannah climbed into this car seat while we were at church. I think she was remanicing of the good old days of when she was in an infant carseat. She grew out of hers so quickly. She stayed in it for a while before climbing back out.

Just chillin' in the seat. Oh those were the days!



So Much to be Thankful For

This was Hannah's first Thanksgiving. It was so much fun to have her. We stayed home this year and spent Thanksgiving with my family. We went to my grandmother and Aunt's house. Everything was really good. Hannah was full of herself as usual. She wasn't having any part of a nap, but we certainly did try. She walked around the house and everyone took a turn on folling her around making sure she wasn't getting into anything she wasn't supposed to.

This is a picture of my mom, Grandmother (Nana, who is 90), Hannah and I. We have to take advantage of these precious moments! Hannah has amazing women to look up to.

We take a picture of Hannah with her great grandmother every time we visit her. We try to visit her as much as possible.
I love this picture of Hannah. She stopped for 2 seconds and the camera actually worked fast enough to take this picture. I just love my little "monkey".
