And Little E did come back. You can also see that Hannah has been playing very hard down at the beach this week. She has skinned up her knee a couple times. At one point it started bleeding again, but Hannah did not mind. She was too busy playing with Little E.

As mentioned below, Hannah was trying very hard to play with Little E, but she had other plans. Hannah looks worried that Little E will not come back to play.

Hannah found a set of chairs and a small table meant for dolls to sit in. "Little E" (as her parents call her) and Hannah were able to squeeze into the chairs so they sat in them. It was cute to see them both in these miniature chairs.

Hannah and her friend Elizabeth played together almost all day yesterday. It was the first time that Daddy noted Hannah playing in a more social way. She wanted to include Elizabeth in everything. Elizabeth is only 13 months old and did not quite want to play with Hannah, just around her. Either way they both had fun playing today.

Here she is trying to get it to fall off again.

Hannah is outgrowing her birthday hat. The same one she wore on her first birthday. She enjoyed making it fall off, and having Momma keep coming back to put it back on her head.

Here you can she her dainty way she picks at the icing.

Hannah was very excited about the cake, but did not really attack it. Much like her first birthday, she picked at it a little bit. She did not really get too messy. Momma tried to get her to blow the candles out, but Hannah could not quite get them.

The answer to the questions posed below!

What is Hannah doing? Why is she so patiently waiting in her high chair? The chair she hates to sit in, instead of Momma's lap?

Hannah and cousin Cecilia were difficult to get to pose for a picture with Lauren and Great Grandmother "Gram". You can see Hannah is a ham in front of the camera.

Hannah could not sit still for her photo-op with her cousin Lauren. But she was able to keep the bow in her hair for more than a minute.

Even though Hannah was tired and did not really want to wake up, when she did she was very happy. She can tell you that she is "2", but can not quite yet show you like Daddy can.

BeBe made a cake for Hannah. Hannah's "real" birthday party is Wednesday, July 4th, when all her cousins can be with her.

Hannah is 2 years old!

Hannah has been at the beach for a couple days now. On her birthday, July 1st, Hannah was wiped out... at 11AM. She has been playing at the pool and hanging out at the beach so much that she has been sleeping in very late. Momma and Daddy had to go in and wake her up because she was going to sleep through her our birthday lunch.

Happy Birthday, Hannah! We love you!

Mom & Dad

Don't worry, I stopped them before they... well, you know. - Mommy

Hey Aunt Kat, when can I wear your funny hat? - Hannah

Hurricane Hannah seems to destroy things everywhere she goes. Here's Hannah knocking down an entire screen door at her Aunt Jillian's house. We were going to get some spray paint and putting "Hannah wuz here" on the screen, but we thought better of it.

Hannah aka "Martha Stewart" does crafts on Mommy's kitchen chairs. Ain't that nifty.

Here, Hannah is showing me how cool she looks with sunglasses. I agree.

One last one of Cecilia (and Papa)! Once again you can find a link to her page on the top right of this page.
Stephanie, Andrew, and Hannah want to once again congratulate Jillian and Charles on their newborn, and thank them for allowing us to be a part of her first week of life. Cecilia is a very pretty little girl and we look forward to seeing her grow up with Hannah. We hope you enjoy having Cecilia around as much as we have enjoyed having Hannah.

While Cecilia was not impressed by the photo session, Hannah was just interested in the band-aid on the bottom of Cecilia's foot (where she has received her shots). Hannah is into stickers right now, and most likely thought Cecilia had a sticker that Hannah did not get.

Bebe and Papa brought their 2 granddaughters out to get some pictures together. Hannah kept giving Cecilia a "piss". Momma and Daddy need to work on that "K" sound.

For some time now, Hannah has barked out "Baby!" anytime she saw someone close to her size. Hannah spent some time here trying to figure out how to get in the swing with Cecilia. Instead, she was content to run around the house with Cecilia's Piglet doll.

Cecilia Grace in all of her glory. If you would like to see more pictures of Cecilia, look to the top right of this page for a link to Cecilia's website.

Hannah's Daddy got to spend a minute in front of the camera with Cecilia. Cecilia needs to be in direct sunlight. Daddy is not sure why, but he suspects Cecilia's mother wants her to get a tan.

Hannah was very good with the new baby. She was very inquisitive, but knew to be gentle with Cecilia. BeBe, Hannah, and Cecilia spent some time together.

Hannah's new cousin was born last week. Cecilia Grace (last name withheld) was born on 06-04-07. Hannah visited Cecilia the day she was born and hung out with her for several days.

Hannah was on the edge of her seat after the screen went black at the end of the Sopranos. She covered her ears waiting for that final gunshot that would take out Tony, however it never came.

The last episode of the Sopranos left Hannah crying. Not because it was going off the air, but because David Chase choose to end the series with all kinds of questions lingering. Hannah woke up this morning demanding we drop HBO.

Green ice cream is most certainly the best kind.

Hannah has been a bit slow on learning NOT to throw her food on the floor. Sometimes it is just an accident, however when you see this much on the floor you have to wonder? I can not tell you how hard it is to take when Hannah looks me square in the eye and drops food on the floor. Grrrr. -Daddy

So Hannah got her hands on spaghetti again, and as you can see, she was happy about it. Nothing goes better with spaghetti than some green ice cream!

Just for Fun!

Enjoy!

I-Ceam-Kong

I'm so strong, I was able to lift the 2 ton blue tube at the park today. And.. I didn't eat my wheaties today. Imagine if I had.. Wow!

Look at me. I'm cooler than the blue tube.

"Boo" Box

I get so excited about "boo" boxes, my hair sticks out!

Sleepy Head

Apparently, peanut butter wears Hannah out.
