The Friday Five: July Update

5. Daddy's becoming a pancake expert. Hannah's favorite concoction is his new "Dora" complete with a M&M eyes, a chocolate chip smile, and cocoa hairdo









4. We recently bought a slightly larger kiddie pool for Hannah and she LOVES it. There's only one thing to watch out for though, the hippopotamus that lives on the bottom! Don't know where Hannah comes up with these things, but the swim shoes were a must so it wouldn't nibble on her toes.













3. Hannah learned the joy of licking the beaters when mommy makes cookies! She also helped pour each ingredient into the bowl and turn the mixer on and off. I'm not brave enough to teach her how to crack the eggs yet!

















2. Hannah had a blast at Vacation Bible School! Whenever I went to check on her or give the nursery workers a little break she demanded that I "GO AWAY!" Hmmm. Is someone ready for preschool? She loved every minute of every day and reports that her favorite activity was the bounce house. We had over 150 children attend!









1. I went in for my 13 week check-up this morning and brought Hannah along. She was so excited to hear the baby's heartbeat. But....more scares. The doctor couldn't find it! We heard plenty of swish swishing but she said that was me because it wasn't fast enough. So....I ended up with an ultrasound and the baby is JUST FINE!!! I couldn't believe how much he/she had grown in just a couple of weeks! It was exciting for Hannah to see the picture of the baby and watch it's arms and legs thrashing about. We also got to see the flickering of the heartbeat which is always very reassuring. (Turns out that the doctor was listening too low--kind of the same scenario as my first ultrasound so I guess I'm carrying high! Boy?)

I love to read all the good things that are happening to you and your family. It doesn't look like I will get to see you this summer. Perhaps in the fall sometime!!!
