Winter Snow and more!

Lots of photos today... with some random bits of stories!
Hannah seriously loves this bouncer! Probably one of the best gifts we ever recieived... and to think it came from Grandpa!

Daddy let me have that!


Sorry it's blurry, don't know why. Hannah likes the tree and will sit under it or next to it and play with the knitted ornaments and bells that are on the first level of the tree.


I'm innocent, I promise!
Don't let looks fool you- she's not that innocent!


House Decorations on our deck: Frosty Santa and the candycanes


Jason and Hannah playing around in the house

Hannah loves this rudolph that plays music!


Well Sunday brought us wonderful white stuff from the sky, that's right folks, SNOW! We awoke around 9:30 to snow on the ground and it continued well into the afternoon. It was sticking too, imagine that. We bundled up Hannah and outside we went, where we let her play in the snow a bit, though she didn't really seem to like it. Or maybe it was just so new to her that she didn't know what to do or think about it.

We had to run a few errands, like groceries and Costco! Got that done fairly early and spent the remainder of the day in the house bundled watching movies and playing with Hannah. Hannah outside Nana and Papa's house, in her snow suit, Jason threw snow at her.


Sitting outside our apartment, she was only there like 30 seconds. She stuck her hand in the snow and snarled at it.

The view off our deck (notice the back of the wooden santa in the lower of the pic). As well that's the back of my car you see there.


A night picture. Again, my car on the right, fully covered.

Sunday also marked Hannah's 8 month Birthday. Believe it or not, our darling child is 8 months old. She is now crusing around quite quickly with crawling. She is pulling herself up to standing, and beginning to figure out what her legs are for, testing to take a few steps here and there with assistance of course. She eats so well, and we have even begun to offer her bits of food for her to chew. Mind you that she doesn't not have any teeth yet, but not to fear that doesn't get in the way of enjoying food! She loves music and bops to it, as well as shows preferences for people and toys. She is just an amazing little one! I can't believe it's been 8 months already. It was this time last year that we found out we would be having a little Girl!

Hannah in her new car seat. She was in her snow suit on Sunday as we did some errands, the car was cold, she was cold and so we decided, she could ride in her suit. We bought this suit for her in September, thinking she would fit just fine in it. It's a large and says up to 21 pounds. Well Hannah weighed in recently at 20 pounds, so needless to say this suit will work for another few weeks, then no more.

So now it's Friday, there has been snow and ice on the ground all week, thank goodness for mass transit to get to work.

Thursday night marked our first haircut for Hannah as well. It was interesting to get her to sit for that, but we managed and now her hair is shorter, mostly for purposes of her being able to see!


If you notice pictures before this one, you can see how longer her hair was. It was getting into her eyes, so we decided to trim it up. Trimming your 8 month old daughter's hair, is a challenge.

Loves to all, have a great day.

Cute! I love her new 'do. We've got crazy snow up here too...Eva hasn't been out in it because she doesn't have the shoes for snow yet. If it's still snowey over there during Christmas, we should get the girls together for a snow-date!

I love her new snow suit.

She is getting so big.

I hope you guys are able to make it up here this weekend.

I can't believe the snow has stuck around so long.
