The Beach

Hannah is not so sure of the beach.  Her and Nana were playing in the sand when the tide came in and "pulled" her and she did not like that at alll.  Hannah sure is my daughter and much prefers the cement beach.  :) 

Bon Voyage Hannah!

Hannah was invited by her Aunt Jenny and Nana (with "hi, Hannah") to visit Myrtle Beach this week.  She left bright and early Saturday morning on a 5:40 AM flight from Austin to Atlanta and Atlanta on to Charleston.  We were hoping she would sleep on the plane and in good Hannah fashion, she did not.  :)  She's a great traveler and didn't give Nana any problems.  They arrived and went straight to the beach.....Hannah finally took a nap, all of 8 minutes.  She is there w/ Aunt Jenny, Nana, her cousin Dylan, and Dylan's friends Olivia and Joey.  Hannah is completely smitten with Olivia.  Here are some pictures from the first couple of days. 

Blue plastic pool

Last summer I bought Hannah this blue plastic pool (which Richard just knew it was going to kill the grass) to play in in the front yard on hot (everyday) days.  She's already used it several times this summer and today is ONLY June 6th.  It's a very handy pool.....hours of Hannah fun, giant cooler for parties, wash Daisy, etc.....endless uses for the pool.  I hope to continue to be able to use the plastic cirlce of fun throughout this long hot Texas summer.  (Seriously, the pose......really, she may look like Richard, but that pose, camera ham, and that smile.....is all me). 

My love.

Really how'd we get so lucky?!  She's the best child.  She rarely complains, she's so loving, she is so smart, she is really funny, and she loves to eat.  These are my two favorite pics of the moment.  Hannah will begin Pre-K in August and I can't believe it.  Really.  I will cry like a baby I'm sure the first day she puts on her school uniform (best decision ever to send her to private pre-k where there is a uniform....trust me folks, otherwise, it would be World War III every morning in the Lunoff household fighting about she can't wear blue wedges to pre-k).  We can't to see what pre-k has in store for her.  She's beginning to recognize her letters.  She can even spell and write "Hannah", "Mom", and "Dad".  She knows how to use her iTouch, use the computer to watch Elmo video clips from sesamestreet.com, she's learning to tie her shoes, learning Spanish, and getting bigger everyday (we're down to only one stool in the guest bathroom...she can reach the facet in our bathroom, already).  I promise to update more frequently especially this summer after Hannah has finished swim lessons, her second session of dance classes, her gymnastics classes, and her fabulous trip with Nana (with Hi Hannah) and Aunt Jenny to Myrtle Beach (I'm super jealous of this trip)! 

She's hates her picture taken.

Oh.My.Gawd.  I wish I had pics of me when I was her age on my computer to post next to hers.  I bet the hip cocked and hand placement is probably the same.  We're in trouble, folks. 

It's SUMMER!

In Texas that means summer started in April.  Hannah and I began venturing to the pool in April because it was already 90+ degrees.  She really likes the water and has a great time jumping in.  This love of water and her no fear attitude led us straight to swim lessons!  She starts on June 7th and we can't wait.  Here is me and Hannah at our first trip to the pool.  (Oh, did I mention my slight obsession with Ray Ban's?!  I think I'm up to three pair of Aviators at this point! Love them!)

The Horse

Every Friday is pizza and frozen yogurt Friday at the Lunoff house.  We've tried many frozen yogurt places, but our favorite has to be The Yogurt Spot by my office.  It's the best, really.  It's so creamy and they have plastic lids on the toppings.....are you know germa a phobe Tracy, really appreciates at least some barrier over my Reese's cups to prevent tiny hands and grown up fingers from just digging in.  It makes me feel better at least about dumping a load of Reese's goodness on my Chocolate Craving yogurt.  There is a horse statue around the corner that Hannah must sit on each and every time we go.   I have many many photos of her just cheesing on this thing.  I don't get it, but I guess you have to be 3 and really love that metal horse.  It makes her happy, so we do it....every.Friday.
