Ducks, Parks, and just hanging out!

We had a really busy day last Thursday (see I'm getting caught up!!! haha) We packed our lunch and headed to the park with our friends!!! We ate lunch, fed the ducks, and did a LOT of playing!!! It was so pretty outside a nice breeze from the water so it didn't get too hot!!! :) We had GREAT naps that day and slept great at night too! (well we are blessed she usually sleeps great!!)

It was so much fun! Now that the weather is finally warm (maybe a little TOO warm for April) we can't wait to hit the parks, beach, pool this summer!!! I have a feeling it's going to be a lot harder this summer than last!!!!! haha she stayed in the stroller most of the time at the pool!


DUCKS!!!!!!! QUACK QUACK......



Watching the ducks......



Peek a boo i see you!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Big girl climbing up and down the playground.

Just chilling in my chair drinking some h20........catching some rays......

Thanks to everyone who came over it was great to see everyone and I'm glad you could take part in Hannah's special day!!!

We love you!!!!

Guess who's WALKING???

HANNAH IS!!!!!!

She took her first steps on March 26, 2010!!! At her Nana and Papa's house in Virginia! We had just gotten in from the 2 hr drive and were all downstairs just talking and we stood her up and off she went! She took 5 STEPS right away!! We were in shock luckily she did it again and again so were able to get it on camera!! Because the first time we were like omg omg she's walking....and we just watched her it didn't even dawn on us to grab the camera! haha!!

I'm so glad a lot people were there to see her take her first steps!! The next day Saturday of her party in Richmond her Grandma and GeeGee and Remi took her to the mall and she went shoe shopping!!! She got an awesome pair of white shoes that support her ankle and she no sooner had them on and took off in the store and showed off for her Grandma and GeeGee. (I don't think Remi had told them she took steps the day before so they were in shock!!!) They couldn't believe it! Of course they got 2 pair! One for now and one for summer!!!



GeeGee and Grandma and the new walking girl!!!!


This is fun!!!!!!!!!!!!


She LOVES playing!!!


I just LOVE that face!!!

Baby Alex.....

Sorry I have been horrible about updating this. Our computer situation is kinda wacky. We are down to the laptop since our desktops decided to have issues and Remi is working on it but it's been too nice outside and we have been busy with family visiting for Easter! So I think I got most of the pictures on the laptop.

So a while back like March 25-26 Chris and Jill came down to visit with their new addition ALEX! It was a great (very quick) visit!!! It was the first visit with both of us having babies!! So fun! He was just over a month old and so tiny!! I can't remember Hannah being that little.......he was a cuddle bug too!! Remi and I enjoyed snuggling with him and giving him some bottles!!!

I can't wait for them to grow up together, although it will be a year before they can really play together but after that age won't matter!! It's great to have such good friends be in the same place we are and have babies!!!

Me and the baby!!


Handsome boy!


Remi giving Alex a bottle, he didn't get to do this much with Hannah, I nursed and pumping was too much for me. Maybe the next one pumping will work out better!


Presents for the Birthday girl!!!


Group Picture!!! Even Teddy had to get in the picture, if you look at the bottom! haha


Thanks for coming down to visit! It was last minute and very quick due to the hubby's travel schedules with their jobs!!! Can't wait for more fun visits!!!

Trip to RVA

The weekend of March 21 we packed up and went to Richmond to visit family. Remi's sister is a drama teacher at Goochland High School and they were doing their spring musical "Charlie Brown" so my mom kept Hannah and we all went to see the play! It was awesome! A small cast but a very talented one! She picked the right person for the part! During the day on Saturday Remi took Hannah with him and hung out with his dad and brother while I caught up with a friend over lunch! Yay for ME time!!!! It was really busy weekend but they always are!!!! Here are some pictures from the weekend! Enjoy!!

Grandma your feeding me baby food?? I eat real food now! haha Her face is priceless!!


Just crusing.....


Here comes Hannah cotten tail....hopping down the bunny trail.......


Our Saturday night out!


Aunt Gemma and Hannah!

Goldfish Theft!

Look who learned a new trick! NOW I pull her highchair out and away from the hutch where we keep her snacks! She seriously amazes us each and everyday! This particular day we were gathered around the table and she was eating her meal and noticed the goldfish and recognized the bag and started grabbing for them, I said well if she can get them without spilling any then she deserves them!! Well what do ya know?? She got them!!! She had a few and was happy!!!

She's such a little turkey!!!

Birthday Party!!

Hannah and her BFF Madeline! They are so cute together!



Finally here are "some" pictures from Hannah's birthday party in Maryland with her playground friends! I LOVE that we were able to get a picture of ALL the kiddies basically sitting still and looking at the camera! AMAZING! We had a great turn out even though it was pouring down rain the entire time! All the kids were great!

Hannah is already such a girl! We were opening presents and with all the clothes she picked them up and put them on her head like she was getting dressed!!! Too cute!!!!

Thanks for everyone who made her day so special!!! We love you!!!

Chow time! She's such an eater!


:)



All the little monkey's!


My girl and I!


The delicious cake Remi made and my mom and dad decorated!

Uh ohhh.....

Here's an idea of what all Hannah has been getting into as she approached (and reached) the ONE YEAR mark!!!

Playing with daddy's drills, throwing things out of the dishwasher, breaking mom's favorite candle holder (which I still need to replace!!!) The candle breaking was really scary! She liked to crawl over to it and shake it and I think we had just gotten her cleaned up from dinner put her down to clean up (prob so the dog wouldn't jump on the table and clean up himself) and she got over to it and knocked it down! She cried, it made a lot of noise! :( But she didn't get any glass on her so that was what is important, climbing into the drawer with all the cookie sheets, the washer and dryer!!! She's really into the dryer, pulls things out, puts them in and tries to climb in herself! So we helped her out! Don't worry it was NOT warm inside so she didn't hurt herself!!

She's into everything and loves to explore! We are aware she will break more things that we like have expected it BUT to make things fair Hannah Elise we will capture it on camera for you!!!!! To show you what trouble you were! haha kidding your an amazing child and we love seeing you change and learn every single day! Bring it on!

Hannah's FIRST cupcake! (with icing)

Happy Birthday baby girl! I can't believe you are 1 year old!!!! It's been an amazing year!! We love you very much and can't wait to watch you grow up! xoxoxoxo

It's my BIRTHDAY!!!


Grandma and GeeGee singing HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you!
