Parker's Big News!

Well, Sunday, May 17th, his Uncle Brent's birthday, Parker finally took his first steps! Krista and Trey take the credit. We were all at Nana and Papa's with all the AZ family, and Krista and Trey were having fun trying to get him to go back and forth. Mind you, Parker has not really even stood alone at this point. They said he was walking and I didn't believe it, so I got in on the action. He got to going pretty far. He had quite an audience and loved it! This video was the next day. He still loves to crawl, but at least now, he doesn't have to go to physical therapy!

Dancing

Hannah and Parker were playing with a toy remote Parker got from Grammy, and Hannah liked making it do the songs. Parker was trying to dance (as much as you can sitting down). I told Hannah she had to dance without getting up so she could be in the shot, too.

Hannah's 3!

So, Hannah's birthday was April 27th, and Hannah had gone to Heber to Ali and Cooper's birthday party on the 25th with her daddy. They came back on the 26th, and on the 27th, I looked all over for the camera, which Craig took on their trip. I couldn't find it...until the 28th that is. All I have to remember the actual day, is a black and white picture from Chuck E Cheese, where we went on Hannah's birthday. If I can figure out how to scan it, I'll put that on here. So, here is a picture Craig took of Hannah at Ali and Cooper's party...from what I hear, she had tons of fun! Hannah's party was small-Mommy, Daddy, Parker, Nana, and Grammy. We had pizza at the park, then went to Chuck E Cheese, because Mom had a coupon...big surprise!


And now, my tribute to Hannah:

What Hannah Loves:
-Mommy, Daddy, and Parker
-Grandparents and Cousins
-Friends, who is anyone around
-Dora, Dora, Dora!
-Pretty much any cartoon that's not "scary"
-Playing games
-Playing with Parker
-Singing, Dancing, Laughing
-Eating-especially sweets like her mama
-Helping Mommy (cooking, "making piles" of laundry-otherwise known as sorting, giving Parker a toy when he is sad, etc.")
-Coloring, painting, cutting-which she hasn't been able to do since cutting Parker's hair :)
-Nursery
-Talking-such a little chatterbox-I love it...most of the time

Why We Love Hannah:
-There is never a dull, or quiet moment with her around
-She can make friends with anyone-including the bagger at the grocery store
-She is so smart-my goal is to have her reading CVC words before her next birthday-that's the teacher in me
-She makes us laugh with the things she says
-She's got a contagious smile-hard when trying to discipline
-She's a good example to Parker (she tries to teach him what we do during a prayer)
-She likes to pick out clothes that "match"
-She still takes naps!
-She is Hannah-I don't know where she gets it, because her parents were much more mellow as children, but we love her!
