THREE!!!

Hannah turned 3 on September 16th! Where is the time going? Daddy brought home flowers for her (he said they were for mommy too!)She had to smell them...
Hannah was so excited to see that the candles were for HER to blow out!
She loved her new Dora dollhouse!...
And her Tinkerbell jacket

On Saturday we celebrated with friends and family, and we rented a Dora bounce house! Hannah LOVES bounce houses. She was quite excited to see it in her backyard!
Time for some snacks.
Presents!


Time for more jumping. Zoey and I kicked the boys out so they wouldn't bother us!
Whew! Tired..These two girls just needed a quick rest.
Mommy even came in to bounce with me!...
And so did daddy!
This is just so much fun!
Later in the day my family came over to celebrate with me too!
The morning after...look at these new clothes!
Hannah...Happy birthday sweet girl. There are so many things I love about you...here are just a few.

I love your smiles and your laughter...especially when daddy is tickling you and you end up laughing so hard that you can barely catch a breath.

I love how, now that you're in a big-girl bed, you still lay there in the morning and wait for one of us to come get you. I guess right now we don't need to worry about you wandering the house. (whew!)

I love how your "radar" goes on the moment you spy candy, cake, donuts, or anything sweet! Wonder where you get that from?

I love how you "take care" of your babies--you love them, feed them, give them their naps, and even burp them! It is so fun to watch you being their little mommy!

I love how you sleep with about 5 different stuffed animals, and before bedtime you have to make sure that they are all covered up along with you!

I love how much you love our dog Taylor and kitty cats Cosmo and Wanda. You are so gentle and caring towards them.

I love how you often make random observations about various things:
"Daddy you're a boy and I'm a girl and mommy is a girl too." (as we are driving in the car)

"Mommy I'm not mad at you, I'm happy at you. And I'm happy at daddy too. I just am." (as we are at the store in the shopping cart)

"Mommy I'm nice-ing you." (After I asked her if she was being a good girl).

And I also love how you mix your phrases up:
Jim taught her to "wash it down" when she is eating, meaning take a drink. The other night she took a big sip and said, "Ahhhh I gotta wash it off mommy)."

Oh Hannah...we love you so much! Happy Birthday!
