1 Year Appointment

Today was Hannah's 1 year appointment, and it went well! We are so thankful that our baby girl is so healthy!

She was 31 inches long (95th percentile), weighed 23.11 pounds (85th percentile), and her head circumference was 18.5inches (90th percentile). We were so happy that her head isn't the biggest measurement anymore :)

She had another round of shots, and these seemed to be the worst ones yet! She started screaming when I laid her on the table and she saw the syringes that the nurses had! I think she's starting to figure out that those needles are not cool!

Now we are in Tahlequah, and she is going to have a fun night with her Mama, Papa and Aunt Pami while I work at the Walgreens in Tahlequah.

This coming weekend is Memorial Day weekend and we are taking her out on the boat for the first time... it should be so much fun!

Birthday Party Recap!

This past Saturday, we had Hannah's birthday party and it was so much fun. Almost my whole side of the family came, and we had a special guest appearance from Eric's side of the family - Auntie Lori and Cousin Lila came all the way from California!! It was so great for Lori and Lila to be there to share the fun weekend with us!

This is a picture of five generations - starting with my Great Grandma Jesse, my Papa, my mom, me and Hannah!

Miss Hilary came with her mom and her three kiddos... Carter, Calla and Cedar. Carter and Calla enjoyed playing with the sand table with Hannah!

Miss Cari and Mr. Marcus came too with their daughter Isla. It was so great for them to be able to come up from Tquah - Isla is so adorable and sweet! She enjoyed playing with Hannah's toys and watching all the "big kids!"

Hannah started cutting her third and fourth teeth a couple of days before the party and had been screaming in the middle of the night so much that it made her voice hoarse for the big day, but she still had a good time (even if this picture doesn't look like it!)

Here she is in her new "big girl" chair.... she sat in this for a long time, just staring at everyone that had come for the party!

The theme for the party was the Wonder Pets, so I had the bakery make a cake and frost it, and then I decorated it. I think it turned out pretty good... I made the fly boat out of fondant wrapped around a toy boat and it was so cute!

Finally, Hannah started getting pretty tired after we opened presents and so when it came time to sing "Happy Birthday" to her, she was less than thrilled!

After the "Happy Birthday Song" fiasco, Hannah and her daddy took a much needed nap!





Thanks to everyone that came for helping Hannah celebrate turning the big "1!"

Happy Birthday Hannah!!

ONE YEAR OLD!!!

Hannah, we can't even believe that you are a year old! This past year has been the best of our lives. We never could have imagined how much we'd love you!

You've gone from being a tiny baby who loved to snuggle to a big girl who loves to move around! Now that you are walking, you just want to go everywhere!

We thank God every day for you Hannah... you have blessed us and given us both a renewed sense of purpose. We pray that as you grow up, that we can be Godly parents to you and raise you with a sense of independence and responsibility, as well as the freedom to become exactly who you were meant to be. You have a special place in the hearts of those who love you, and I pray you always know what a treasure you are.

Happy 1st Birthday Hannah!

Walking!!

Hannah just started walking this past Wednesday (5/12) and since then, it seems like that's all she wants to do!


I was home with her Thursday and we played a fun game of "Get Mommy," and I took some video, so enjoy!!!

Fun Picture Day

At the beginning of May, we took Hannah outside to take some pictures for her birthday invitations... we think we got some cute ones!
