What a TTTerific Day!

I slept (a lot), ate (a lot), smiled (a lot), and most importantly - got some new toys (a lot)!

I had a visit to Kiddytown today to add to my existing collection of toys, clothes, and miscellaneous things :). What a great time I had there. I was pooped when I left!

Chewed on my favorite toy! (You were right Auntie Barbara)
Also, I went to the park today. It was a lot of fun (after I woke up!) ... until it started to thunder ?! Then we (mom and I) ran home.

I fell asleep on the way to the park.


Check out the beautiful ravine beside the stroller. We were parked ontop this bridge while I slept ... still sleeping.





Here is me still sleeping beside the swings. I was making mom wait!!!

Here is me on the swing JUST as the thunder started to happen.







Started the 3xday solids and my tummy loved it.

Had tons of playtime today (as always).










Another first - wore my Growbag for the first time. I look so cute!
Hope everyone else had a super day and cheers to tommorow!
(which should be fun as I'm hanging out with the girls & Gabe)

Perfectly Healthy!

Ola Amigos,
So I'm perfectly healthy - says the good 'ol doctor.
The summary of the appointment is:
1. Height 26 inches ... holy cow! 95th percentile.
2. Weight 14.1 lbs ... I watch my weight :) 50th percentile.
3. Start solids feedings 3 times a day (not 2).
4. No strawberries until 9 months.
5. I was given the go ahead for the cruise.
6. No more lippity laser sessions :)
So in conclusion, I am perfectly healthy!

Now here are some pics of yesterday and today.

(btw-my other tooth still hasn't come through the gums yet, that combined with the 2 shots I got today I'm super fussy tonight!)

Me looking as cute as ever. What head control!I slept during most of my mom's lunch at Phu Yen. What cute cheeks!

This is me after waiting more than an hour in line at the passport office. I'm pooped!

So close to another breakthrough!!! - Arg.

Hi folks!
2 quick things - 1. my second tooth is at the surface and should be busting through my gums momentarily (thank you Mr. Tylenol & sorry for the bad picture, it was the best I got)
& 2. this post is done from today back to Friday due to Google's picture upload facility, it's easier this way.
So here we go ...

Rode my first slide today!
Then played on the swing.



Here is this morning's playtime outside on my deck. Can you tell I'm teething ?!



This was yesterday after spending the afternoon at a friends house/pool ... Can you tell I'm tired?
This is putting my jammies on at the end of the day at our friends house. (right before the picture above)
I'm lounging by the pool here making silly faces at people.
All dressed for the swimming here. Nice hat mom!
Earlier that day, dad tried to get me to sleep in the hammock - he is sooo funny!
Playtime in the backyard before the pool/bbq party.

Just woke up and am lounging & chilling.
Here is my on Friday playing with my possible future beau (Gabe). He is soooo cute!
Then some tummy-time.
Phewf! What a long couple of days!
Good night!

Good evening! Well, my mom tried to get a photo of my tooth but after about 20 takes (deja vu of the passport picture yesterday) it just wasn't going to happen.

So here are some photos of my day.

First off, the morning playtime:
Then the walk to Centrum (after I went swimming):Then I had Gymboree class:And of course, some mommy & me playtime:

And then I enjoyed a nice dinner:Still smiling! I'm a trouper.

Tough Girl,
Hannah

GOT IT! GOT IT! GOT IT! GOT IT! - what you ask?

I got my first TOOTH today!!!! It broke through overnight and it is a sharp little tooth.

I'll post more later.

No longer a gummy smile,

you know what grinds my gears?

Trying to get a passport for me. (taken from the passport site)

What are the photo requirements for a baby?

A full front view of your child's head and shoulders is required. Please note that the parent's hands or arms may not be seen in the picture. Passport Canada is, however, lenient about the expression of a newborn (mouth open or smile).


Good luck! After 1 hour, the lovely gentleman gave me 13 pictures and told me to get my garantor to sign them all and see which one the lovely passport office would like.

Well, aside from that, not much to report. Here is a little montage I made to show off how much I've grown up.

Good night!
Hannah

Soon - A Breakthrough!

Well folks! I (well mom) can see the little tip of my very first tooth! This is my excuse for my cranky behaviour lately.

Also, Happy Birthday to me! 4 months baby! I'm a big girl now. And to think of all the changes that have happened in the past 4 months it's hard to believe I'm the same little colicky baby that would barely ever crack a smile. Now all I do is smile & giggle. Especially at my mom cause she is funny looking :)

Today I went to the Royal Oak all prettied up with some girlfriends of mine.Also had some terrific playtime with mom. I can reach/grab/kick now. Wow!





This is it for now, I'll post with some more pictures later.

Happiest Baby on the Block,
