Happy Birthday to my Hannah girl!!!!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Hannah!!!!

Hannah's Room

I've been into decorating Hannah's room lately. She's had her own room since we moved here in August but she's never had any decorations on her walls or her own bedding. I figured it was about time. We had a big week of changes also. After all the decorating that I did I decided to bring up the toddler bed to set up the bedding. I figured I would also try to get Hannah to sleep in it. The first afternoon she got right out of her bed and climbed back into her crib. That night though Matt was putting her to bed and asked if she wanted to sleep in her big girl bed. She said "Yes, I do". She went and climbed into bed, Matt brought her her blanket and she fell right asleep. She's been sleeping in it since Tuesday and she had done great!!! I just had Matt take apart her crib yesterday... it was a little sad to know that my baby isn't a "baby" anymore. We also gave her a birthday present a few days early since she had a lot more room in her room now. It's a very cute dollhouse/playhouse. It's pretty huge though but she still loves it!
The room still isn't complete but as soon as it is I'll have more pics up.

Potty Training... take 542... this time with my girly girl!!!

So this pretty little princess told me yesterday that she wants to wear undies..... WOW! You mean there is actually a kid in this house that wants to be potty trained. I put her in a pair of Carsen's undies yesterday just to try it out and she peed in them but today when she woke up from her nap she said "Mama, potty" and I brought her in and she peed! I don't know what I'll do with myself if it takes less than a year to potty train her!!!!


(she wasn't so excited about having her pic taken)

(I told her I'd give her candy if she smiled)

( it worked out pretty well)

Christmas Ornaments...

These are the Christmas Ornaments that I made this year with my Mom and sister.

Halloween.

Just a few pics from the day....

Smores

"Please Mama, clean my hands"
"These are so yummy, and sticky"

"Mmmmm"

My baby eating smores. She wasn't a huge fan. She kept getting stuck to everything and crying because her fingers were sticking together. I think we were outside for 10 minutes before the full meltdown began and we had to go in to bed.

The last resort

So today has been one of those days... you know the one where you want to lock your kid in his room. Well today I did just that.

Everyday I put him down for a nap and I have one of those "childproof" knobs on his door so he doesn't get out 5000 times. Well guess what, he figured out how to get out. So all day today while he was supposed to be napping he just kept coming out of his room. Then came bedtime and I just couldn't take it anymore. I need that boy to stay in his room because I need him to sleep... BECAUSE I need to be sane.


Soooooo.... I came up with this great idea!

Guess what... he stayed in there and was sleeping in 5 minutes! So if anyone needs me to come over to do this to their house, I'm there!

Just a pic

This Little Piggy...

Here are Hannah's toes painted for the first time ever! She sat still on the floor long enough for me to do both of her feet and now walks around looking at them say "Ohhh, pitty (pretty)". I'm so glad she is such a girly girl!

My girly's poor belly

So it's about that time where I have to try and give yogurt to Hannah before her doctor's appt. next month. I really don't want to but it has to be done so we can know if milk is still affecting her like it was before. If it is they will do allergy testing to see if that is what it is or if it might be a lactose issue. I just don't want to put my poor baby through all of that again. Worst case is she will be throwing up all day from the yogurt and best case is that she isn't affected by it at all. I've been giving her quite a few things that have milk cooked in to it and she hasn't had any problems. The last time we tried something was a few months ago and we gave her 3 bites of icecream. She was up all night screaming because she had really bad stomach cramps. Atleast there was no throwing up so that was a good sign. So my plan is to buy a yogurt and maybe on Matt's next day off give it too her so that if she does get sick from it I'll be able to comfort her all day and not have to worry about Carsen.

Now I just need to figure out how much to give her... enough that I know if her stomach can handle it but not too much that it makes her sick all day long.

Pray that her little tummy will accept the yogurt with no problems.
