Stephanie's friend and co-worker Mayme came down to see Hannah at the game. She took Hannah down to the glass where Hannah was able to bang on the glass just like a hockey fan. Hannah was a little disappointed with the Augusta Lynx effort that night. She felt like the forwards were not skating hard enough, and the defensive strategy of the "Left wing lock" left the Lynx open to quick rushes up the ice with little counter attack ability. Maybe that is why she was banging on the glass.

Hannah went to her first ice hockey game last night. Stephanie bought her this new hat before the game, to make sure she would not get cold at the game. Hannah loved the first two periods of the game, but got a little sleepy in the third period. She is looking forward to going to her first NHL game in Atlanta, sometime.

Hannah has another exciting night out on the town, and she was wiped out afterward. This is a twist on the normal picture of her asleep in her car seat. This time she has a winter hat on that almost covers her whole face.

Hannah enjoyed playing with Tripp and getting her new nickname. She is expecting some pickles in her stocking next year. She likes Bread and Butter pickles.

Hannah is seen here with Candice and Trent McClarren (outsides) and Tripp Atkins. Tripp gave Hannah her new nickname of "Pickles". While she is very advanced, Hannah sometimes decides not to cooperate when taking pictures.

At this point Hannah has had a long day! This picture was taken Christmas day around 8PM. Hannah was really wiped out from the long day, but was handling it well. Here she was enjoying the Lomax family party.

Hannah is getting really good at reaching for things, especially at the dinner table. Her parents first realized this when Hannah pulled Stephanie's quesadilla off the table and onto the floor one night. She can move really fast!

Hannah met her Great-Great-Great Aunt Vevia while in Mobile for Christmas. Aunt Vevia is 95 years old and really enjoyed meeting Hannah. Hannah really enjoyed sitting with Vevia for a little while. Hannah is looking forward to seeing her again soon.

Hannah and her cousin MaryKeenan have the same beautiful blue eyes. Hannah is almost 6 months old, so she might keep her blue eyes.

Hannah is almost 6 months old. She did very well spending 8+ hours on the way down to Mobile in her car seat and 8+ hours in the car seat on the way home. That is a sign that she is very advanced.

Hannah had a good time with G and Pop on Christmas break. Hannah can not wait until she is a little older and can eat some of the goodies G makes around Christmas.

Hannah is helping "G" open her presents. Curran and MaryKeenan (Hannah's cousins) are waiting their turn to hold Hannah.

Hannah had a great Christmas. Here she is practicing protecting her presents from any future brothers or sisters.

Hannah Christmas Update

A short update on Hannah's Christmas... Hannah had a great first Christmas.
She got a little sick during the trip to Mobile, AL, but had a good time
spending time with family. She also picked up a new nickname... "Pickles"
Hannah and her parents got home at 12:15AM December 29th, so pictures will
be posted sometime tomorrow. -Management

This is a familiar scene... Hannah has a long hard day at school and when she gets home she is wiped out. Her jacket is just a little bit too big and tends to fall over her head just a little bit. Her parents hope she looks like this for the 7+ hour drive to Mobile, AL tomorrow night.

Hannah is very much looking forward to seeing her family in the coming weeks. Her parents are not looking forward to the drive, but happy to be going to see the family for Christmas.

Hannah got very excited today when... Well I am not really sure why she was excited, but she was. She was probably thinking about the new Nikon D200 camera that hit the market December 15th. She takes after her Daddy. -Andrew

Hannah wishes you the best in the Christmas season. You can see that 5 month old Hannah Chambers is already sitting up in a chair by herself (with her mother slightly off camera for insurance). It goes without saying, but she is very advanced.

These are the two most important girls in my life. One of them thinks I should get a new Nikon D200 camera for Christmas, but the other one has input into the spending decisions. You can guess which one is which. -Andrew

Here is another picture on Hannah in the Christmas Sleigh. One of these days her hair is going to grow to be longer than her father's hair.

Hannah also sat in her high chair for the first time today. She has never sat in the high chair to eat before. While there are not pictures of the aftermath, she wanted to "help" Stephanie which resulted in a big mess. Stephanie bought some new exotic food for Hannah today. Things most adults would not touch, but Hannah has never tried before. I am not sure what the plan is, but I told Stephanie I wanted to be ready with the camera when Hannah gets to eat new foods. -Andrew

Hannah enjoyed her first Christmas tree hunting trip today. The Chambers family drove 30 minutes out into the country side where Hannah's mother had heard about a farm that sells Christmas Trees, Hot Chocolate, and boiled peanuts. What she did not know is the farm does not sell Frasier Fur Christmas trees. Hannah and the family will be going out again tomorrow to find someone who does sell Frasier Furs.

Predictably, Gram is now Hannah's best friend after the whole icing incident. Hannah is really starting to develop, here she is sitting up pretty much on her own. I am not sure at what age children are supposed to be able to sit up, but I am sure Hannah is way ahead of the curve. -Andrew

Jillian, Hannah's godmother, was totally indifferent to the cake icing incident. She is a nurse and if she is not worried about Hannah having a little dessert for the first time, neither am I. -Andrew

Now Hannah knows what cake Icing tastes like. Gram (Stephanie's grandmother) gave Hannah a taste of icing and Stephanie was not excited about it. You can still see the evidence on Gram's finger. I was so distracted by Stephanie's reaction, I never got to see how Hannah enjoyed the icing. -Andrew

After a great time at the beach with G and Pop, Hannah traveled 1 hour West to BB and Papa's house. Papa was having a belated birthday dinner and Hannah was right there to enjoy it. She did not know what cake icing tasted like, yet...

After Hannah started to get upset Stephanie took her to calm her down. Of course Hannah's cousins wanted to continue to help.

Last it was McKay's turn. McKay is Andrew and Stephanie's goddaughter. She has not yet mastered the way to hold a child younger than herself, and at this point Hannah was reaching the end of her rope.

Next it was MaryKeenan's turn to hold Hannah. It is a good thing children of their age do not keep track of time very well. If they did someone would have felt like they got the short end of the stick.

The big sport for Hannah's cousins was to hold Hannah. All three girls were dieing to do so. After the girls played with Hannah in her jumpy seat, Hannah went to sleep. Stephanie brought Hannah back out for the girls to hold her, even though she was still asleep. It made for a cute picture. All three girls got to hold her.

The Nicholas girls all enjoyed time with Hannah, but Curran seems to be having the best time.

Hannah spent some time with her cousins over Thanksgiving break. From left to right: MaryKeenan, Curran, and McKay gave Hannah all of their attention while they were there.

There is something to be said about keeping the photographer behind the camera. I am not exactly sure what was going on here, but one thing is for certain... Hannah is very advanced. -Andrew

Stephanie complained a little bit about not having any pictures of Hannah with her Daddy on the website. Here you can see plain as day Hannah is enjoying her time with her father. She really likes being held up in the air and smiled just about any time you hold her up.

Hannah has really started to enjoy her "Johnnie Jump Up". She was not sure about it at first, but she really smiles big when she is in it now. In this picture it is a little more obvious.

More to come...

Stephanie, Hannah, and Andrew made it back to their home in Augusta, GA at 8PM Sunday night.  Management posted the pictures below, but has another 300+ pictures to sort through.  Soon to follow are pictures of Hannah with her cousins, with her Grandfather (Papa) at his birthday dinner, and Hannah picking out a Christmas tree.  Hannah and her parents hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.  -Management

At the end of the day Hannah, like any good model, was wiped out. She really gives it her all when she shows up on the job site. Although Hannah wanted to walk back to the car herself (she is very advanced for her age), Stephanie carried her back to the car at the end of the photo shoot. Stephanie is an excellent mother.

Everyone knows that models work very hard. It is very taxing on the body to stand in front of a camera for minutes a day making millions of dollars. Hannah demanded that she be given a break to relax and rest her aching legs. She also tried to get a little tan while on her union mandated break.

Hannah suffers from the same height issues that her father does... Here Stephanie tries to give Hannah a better look at the surrounding area from a higher vantage point. I think she was able to see over the rocks out into the water. -Andrew
