Halloween 2011: Monkey girl at the Reformation Celebration

Aaron, Hannah and I had a fun time at the Reformation Celebration at church last night.  Fun hanging out with friends, a great bounce house that Hannah LOVED! and "fishing" in kiddie pool that was so irresistable that Hannah got in it :)

Halloween 2011: Monkey girl

Here are a few shots of Hannah's Halloween costume this year.  She is a little monkey- loves to climb, loves bananas and is super curious!

Ready for Bed

Hannah loves to read!  It is only fitting that our nightly ritual is to read books and drink some milk before bedtime.

Lounging

Hannah can be a real lounge baby sometime.  Here she is watching her show- remote in the hand already!  FYI: her shows are Wonder Pets, Word World, The Cat in the Hat and Praise Baby.

Pumpkin Patch 2011

We ventured out to the Pumpkin Patch on Sunday evening.  Hannah had a great time going down the slide and through the kid friendly hay bale mazes.  She was also fond of all the pumpkins- Hannah was hugging them and cooing over them!  She loved having some freedom to roam around with her new monkey backpack/harness- thanks Mimi and Papa!  Aaron and I had a good time talking with friends, eating fresh corn on the cob and kettle corn. 

Family pictures 2011

In anticipation of Christmas card greetings, our good friend Ben Arnold took some pictures of us yesterday.  He did a great job- thanks so much!

Mimi and Papa's Visit: Oct 2011

Mimi Jo and Papa came to visit us last week.  You have seen the pictures from the Fair but here are a few from the other days of the visit.  There were lots of walks, a trip to Ikea and lots of time in the backyard playing.  Mimi also brought Hannah so many new outfits- she wore a new one everyday!  We had lots of fun- thanks so much for coming!

Texas State Fair 2011, continued

Here are a few more pictures taken at the Fair.  We had a great time: saw some great cars, saw 3 different "homes of tomorrow," stayed a while in the rabbit building :), feed some animals and ate lots of food.  Between the 4 of us we ate lots of crazy food!  Fried salsa, fried margarita, fried autumn pumpkin pie, fried biscuit and gravy, funnel cake, korny dog, frito pie and a catfish taco.  Only at the Texas State Fair!

Texas State Fair 2011

Here are a few of the pictures we took at the Texas State Fair this year.  More to come. . .

Walkin' Baby

Hannah has become interested in two things this past week: Winnie the Pooh and her baby doll.  Before she goes to bed at night, Hannah makes sure that Baby is in her little basket bed and ready for night night- it is so sweet.  Here are a few shots of Hannah pushing Baby in the stroller and taking a walk.  Enjoy!
