Funny Stuff

I've decided to take some time to recollect and share all of the CUTE things Hannah has been up to lately. I kept a little journal while I was pregnant, and continuously added information to her baby book during her first year, but haven't done much else since! She does so many things all the time that just make us CRACK UP!!!! First of all, she is obsessed with this one snowman ornament on the tree, and she takes it off, and then tries to put it back on (by setting it on the branch). I was so nervous about putting the tree up because I thought she might rip the entire thing down, but she has been really good, other than her slight obsession with a few of the ornaments. (I tried to bribe her, but she refused to face the camera...)I have added several random pictures. These first few are of her eating a yummy Christmas cookie with green frosting! Messy?
MMMmmmm...look how yummy my cheeks are...Mommy is always kissing them!
Hannah has been showing some serious signs of independence lately! I wish words could explain how cute, touching, funny, etc. she is. I'll do my best to pass it on! One of the things she has really wanted to do lately is feed herself with a spoon/fork! She'll eat mac & cheese/hot dogs almost independently with a fork. She has even been scooping up ice cream and yogurt almost all by herself to eat it. In other words, she doesn't need help from her parents anymore!!! Here she is eating some yogurt.
MMmmmm...did I even get any of this yogurt on the spoon?
Oh yeah, let me slurp it off!!!
Besides eating with a spoon, here are some more cute hi-lights of Hannah's hilarious happenings:

**She loves to read books! She will often go get one of her books, and bring it over to Jim on the couch. He will set her on his lap, read the book, and then when it's over, she will get off his lap, take the book back over to the messy toy area, and get another book. This cycle repeats several times!

**She imitates so many words. She will pick up her toy phone and say what sounds like "LOW" (hello?!??!!!) She also walks around pointing at things and says what sounds like "ut's that?" She purposely throws her sippy cup on the ground while in her high chair and says, "uh oh!"

**Mommy's little helper: she loves to close the pantry door and the dishwasher, and to pull the decorative towel off the oven door and start wiping the floor with it. The funny thing is, I don't scrub the floor on my hands and knees, so I'm not sure where she gets this one!!

**Careful little cookie: One night I made her some Easy Mac for dinner (I know, the most healthy choice out there), and after I took it out of the Microwave it was very hot so I blew on it. Ever since then, whenever I make or reheat mac and cheese, she starts blowing into the air. Sometime she even blows on lunch meat and crackers! That is one of my favorites!

**She loves to draw on her Magna Doodle toy. Today I looked over, and she was LAYING on the ground, coloring. I couldn't even believe how grown-up she looked while doing this!!!
Creating a masterpiece!
This is comfy!
I just can't believe how much she has changed since she turned one, which was just a few months ago!!!

Hannah we love you so much! Thank you for making us laugh each day! xoxoxoxoxoxo
