Hannah's 4th Birthday

Not sure where the time has gone, but Hannah is already FOUR years old!  We celebrated her 4th birthday last weekend.  She was born on 9-16-08 at 4:22 a.m. and was 8 lbs 8 oz.  Now she is about 33 lbs, loves to talk (nonstop), and loves to snuggle on her new brother!  We love her sooooo much!

Here she is a few days after she was born...

Her first birthday!

Her 2nd birthday!



Her 3rd birthday!

...And here she is on her 4th birthday!  Jim picked up some flowers for her and gave them to her in the morning.  She loves getting flowers!
 

We had her party at Chuck E Cheese.


 What fun!


Hannah and Lucas took a little ride in the car.  Ms. Bossy decided to drive!

Doing the birthday dance.

Since she was the birthday girl, she got to go in the Ticket Blaster machine.  Her older cousin Kaden went in to help her find the 1,000 bonus ticket.  Kaden was really excited to try to grab it.  Turned out that Hannah reached right for it and gave it to him!  It was so funny!

Lovin' her new Cinderella dress!

And we finished the night with more cake at home!

The next morning, she woke up and wanted to know if it was still her birthday.  When I told her it wasn't, she was VERY disappointed!  She said "I still want to be 4..."  When I explained that she was still 4, she recovered a bit, but still requested more presents and another trip to Chuck E Cheese.  Oh brother!

Now for some fun facts about our 4-year-old...
I love how you mix up your words.  You use the word "dizzy" instead of tired.  "Mommy my legs are dizzy from walking so much."  "My hand is dizzy from coloring".  You also say "fuzzy" instead of "fussy".  "Mommy, I think Connor is fuzzy."

I love how you still insist on buckling your booster seat (the one she sits in to eat at the table), so you'll "be safe" while you're eating.

I love your smile, your big brown eyes, your beautiful long hair, your soft skin, your sweet voice, and all your innocence!

I love how you have to sleep with 5 of your babies at night, and they MUST have covers so they aren't cold.  Never mind the fact that you barely have room in your own bed for yourself.  (Certain animals don't need covers because they have fur...your reasoning skills are really strong!)

I love how sweet you are with your brother.  You love to pinch his cheeks to "teach him to smile".

You love to play, laugh, pretend...you are so caring toward others.  You can be so sensitive yet so brave.  We just love EVERYTHING about you (well, almost everything!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET GIRL!!!
