Hannah's Birthday Party

We had a neighborhood birthday party for Hannah this past Sunday. It was a garden party theme. Being the rainy season, we were concerned that it might rain, but instead it was a beautiful, sunny day. About 45 kids and 20 adults came.

Singing Happy Birthday to Hannah

Am I really allowed to have this?

I'm going for it anyway...

Eating the traditional birthday food- yellow rice.

We also had fried noodles, boiled eggs, fruit salad

And of course cupcakes

Everyone came in their best party clothes

It was fun for everyone!

Hannah's 1st Birthday

Hannah had a fantastic first birthday with family- thanks to the wonders of technology! We skyped with our families and they got to sing Happy birthday, watch Hannah eat her cupcake, and open her presents. It was a lot of fun! Here is Hannah wearing her birthday dress.

Hannah loving on her new baby doll. She always hugs her babies and says, "Ooohh!" We aren't sure what it means yet, but think it's really sweet.

Eating her "cupcake" (banana muffin)...

We can't believe our sweet baby is already a year old! We love you Hannah!!!

Stay tuned for pictures from the party.....

11 months... all about me

I pull up on everything,

have a shoe fetish,

smile like this whenever there is a camera... right eye squinted, nose scrunched up...

where did I learn this?,

still put everything in my mouth...

(don't worry... my parents were closely supervising me and I did not eat this!!),

and I love hats and things that sparkle.

This lady knows where it's at.

10 months

These are my friends that come over every day after school to play with me.

I am always on the move.

Sometimes I take a breather, but only for a second.

9 months

Went to the beach and discovered sand...

8 Months

I have 2 teeth! Can you see 'em?

Mom and Dad I'm ready to go!

I was a bigger attraction at one of the 7 wonders of the world than the 7th wonder itself!

My first swimming trip... I had so much fun!!

I have learned how to sit up and I'm trying to figure out the sippy cup.
