First birthday

Hannah is 1. Yeah. We started off the whole day by babysitting the kids I watch. Hannah loves them. She has so much fun playing with them. While they played I cleaned for the party that we were going to have at our house. It was a good day. After Hannah bit through her lip. She was standing all on her own, lost her balance and fell. She started screaming. I thought she just hit her head really hard. After she lifted her head from my shoulder, I saw that her lip was bleeding. I think I have finally been able to get the blood out of my shirt and garments. She still has a little sore. Hannah was so brave. She only cried for a little while and was back on the floor playing.

My sister-in laws, Nancy and Katherine came over to help me with a cake and Hannah. Katherine was a big help. She played with all the kids. She took them out side to blow bubbles. They were out there for about ten min. because they saw a daddy long leg. Nancy and I made Hannah a cake of a Duck. It turned out so cute. Hannah had three cakes. A duck, a free cake from Albertsons and a square one I did in case there was not enough. That is right. Albertsons gives away free cakes for your child's first birthday. It was so cute, and such a nice size cake.

Everyone showed up at our house, We talked and watched Hannah/Me open her presents. Hannah got a lot of clothes. Hannah also got a little bike she can ride or push. I can not forget the box of Twinkies that she got from her uncle Spencer. He figured that kids only like toys for a few minutes and then they are off playing with something else. But I am sorry Spencer. There is no nutritional value in Twinkies so I don't think I am going to give them to her.Katherine also made her the cutest blanket. She will love it when winter comes. Thank you Kath. After presents Hannah started on her cake. She had a hard time at first. She would get a little frosting on her fingers and eat it, then wave to everyone. Hannah did this till Blair took her hand and smashed it in her face. After that she was all for it. She was covered. But she loved every minute of it. Hannah had a great birthday. I can't believe she is one. It has flown by. She is almost walking. She is always standing up on her own. She just is scared to take those steps. She will get there. When she does start walking she will be all over the place. She climbs on everything. She will take after her dad. Hannah we love you. You bring so much joy to our lives. Our lives are so much better with you in them. You know how to put a smile on every ones face. You are loved by so many people. We are so thankful that the lord brought you into our family. We love you.

Thank you to everyone that came to her birthday. The gifts were very much appreciated. We love you all. I do have some pictures of her birthday that I will post later.
