13 months going on 13 years!

September 2008

I can't believe I forgot to post Hannah's 13 month old update! She is growing so fast into a busy talkative toddler. She can now say, "What's that (dat)?", Dada, Mama, cat, dog, woo-woo, Hi, Hello, Bye, book, and her favorite.....no, no, no.

Another baby on the way :)

NOOOOOOOOOOOO, not me. :) Hannah's going to have a cousin to play with come November. We had Aunt Dee Dee's baby shower this weekend. We had lots of fun with the animal themed shower and ate lots of delicious food. Hannah decided that she wasn't getting enough of everyone's attention, so she made her presence known by pushing her very loud wooden stool down the tile hallway.

We can't wait to meet Baby Vaughn!

Baby love

There's nothing better than getting love from the baby. She's so sweet. She'll give you kisses if you ask. We've already talked to her about boys. No kissing boys (except Daddy) until she's 30. :)

Watch out kitty.

Poor Max. He didn't sign up for the curious, easily excited toddler. She loves Max. If he would just sit still long enough she would pet him for days. Sorry Max.....she's here to stay.

No one is safe.

Folks, there is a shark on the loose.

Lock your doors, bring the dogs in the house, protect your ankles!!!!

(Hannah's Halloween costume came today from http://www.babystyle.com/. Richard and I couldn't resist putting it on her. We can't wait for Halloween.....oh, and we're dressing up as Lifeguards!)

Wet t-shirt contest!

Hannah loves to be outside.

She loves, loves to be outside. The minute we get home from day care she makes a b-line to the back door. This time she just HAD to wear the tutu and the bracelet while pushing the baby in the stroller. I have no idea where she gets it from.....

Mommy's Birthday!

Finally, a post about Mommy! :) I turned 32 on September 11th. I had a great time (despite getting over food poisoning). I shared the big 3-2 with friends and family.

Hannah knows the way to Mommy's heart.

Well besides her beautiful smile, infectious laugh, and being darn cute...she emptied her piggy bank this morning and had Tiff's Treats (http://www.tiffstreats.com/) warm chocolate chip cookies and milk delivered to me for my birthday!

Thanks Hannah (and Daddy)!

Hannah and her Shadow

Our neighbor Sterling has two dogs that Hannah loves to cuddle (terrorize) on. Here is her and her Shadow. Thanks Shadow for being so patient!

Hannah can barely contain the excitement!

Can't you tell.....she loves her evening stroll in the wagon so much that she fell asleep! Poor love, so much excitement, she's worn out.

What happens in the 30 seconds of silence.

I've always heard, when babies are quite go find them because they are "in to something". Little did we know how true that is! It's amazing how fast she can move! The first picture...she was quietly reading a book in the living room....the second picture...she was quietly sleeping.....the third picture.....well, she was predending to be Mommy.......the third picture....I had just finished making pumpking bread (YUM!), her highchair was too close to the island......the last picture she is sporting her pig tails as she fell down into her "anywhere" chair (because she was standing in it!) Needless to say, our diet plan is called, "Chasing Hannah".

Hurricane Hanna vs Our Hannah

Hurricane Hanna wreaking havoc on the Caribbean......

Our Hannah wreaking havoc on our living room......

We have a talker....

I don't know where she gets it from. She has quite the vocabulary. I'm going to try to get some of these on video, it's so stinkin' cute to see her hold the phone, remote, toy, up to her ear and say "hello" and then blabber on as if she was talking to somebody. Her vocabulary list is: hello, cat, dog, ball, and bye. She's also learning sign language. She's really good at milk and done. :)
