4th of July

The 4th of July we spent with the Reeder's. We had a picnic (inside since it was sooo hot) but the grand kids went outside to play in the water. Hannah didn't get to see any fireworks (since she goes to bed at 7PM) but I am sure she would have loved them.

Her diaper was soo full of water, we just took it off. She loved being 'snaked'


She finally got the hose from her cousin and loved making it squirt out

Last Day of Swimming Lessons

For the month of June Hannah and I joined her Aunt Melissa and cousin Owen in a mommy and me swimming class. Stu was able to come to one of her swimming lessons and took pictures. She passed with flying colors. Although she has things to work on (like getting her face in the water, and kicking on her back), we can always work on that all summer long.


Hannah loved to be on her tummy and to reach for this floaty thing, she would kick her feet almost every time

Hannah loved the 'kiddy pool'. She could walk in the water and she thought that was pretty neat.

1st Father's Day

Stu celebrated his first Father's Day on the road. We were traveling back from St. George so it turned out to not be a very good one. I asked him if we could do a repeat next Sunday. He delightfully agreed!

Great Grand Kids

This last weekend we headed to St. George to see my G & G. My cousin from Colorado who has the only other great grand kids were coming to visit my G & G and we thought this would be perfect to have all 3 of the great grand kids together in one place. I think my grandparents REALLY enjoyed this. You need to take advantage of every chance you have because you never know when the ones you love might be gone.

On a side note, Hannah LOVES kids and LOVED playing with her cousins.

Swimming with Daddy

Hannah and I have been taking Mommy and Me swimming at our local pool. She LOVES the pool (its like a big bath tub to her). This last weekend we went to St. George to visit my grandparents and since we stayed in a hotel this time we took advantage of the pool. Stu has not seen her mad swimming skills yet, so he got in the water with her.

Working on getting her comfortable on her back. She does not like this position as much

10 Months Old

Seriously...only 2 more months and my baby girl will be a year? SNAPS!

Here is Hannah at 10 months old. This poor 'sign' I use each month will hopefully last me, she has taken to eating it.

Here are some facts about Hannah since her last "birthday":

*Shakes head "no" when she doesn't want to go to sleep (I think she does this to stay awake)
*Started to sleep on her stomach
*Gives kisses when you say "Hannah give ____ kisses". She leans in to give a wet one!
*Claps her hands when you say "Good Job"
*When she doesn't want to go to sleep (which is frequently) she pulls on her bummer pads that surround her crib
*Can sit up her in crib now
*Grinds her teeth (HATE this one)
*Started to crawl
*Cut top 2 front teeth
*Cut bottom 2 side teeth *teeth total is now 8*
*Loves the dog water and food and will go for it EVERY TIME
