A Whole New Experience.....

Well, since we have become mobile, we have found lots of things to be just SO MUCH FUN!!

I really need to begin by thanking Aunt Cathy, Uncle Bill and Grandma! They sacrificed their weekend to put up with Chuck, Hannah, Erin and I and also to watch Hannah for her first overnight while we went to Steph and Trevor's fabulous wedding!! They made it so easy for me to do everything I needed to do for the wedding, the bride and for me to enjoy every minute of it without worrying, it was great! Hannah has never been a good sleeper so my biggest fear was not for Hannah but for Aunt Cathy and Uncle Bill being up all night with her. Well she did fantastic, she slept like a champ and loved having so much room in their house to crawl all over everything. I am pretty sure that Hannah had a blast with them because she was exhausted on Sunday when we got home!

So, on to the fabulous wedding....Saturday called for storms and well they were right! All of us bridesmaids made it to Steph's condo by noon for some lunch and to fininsh getting pretty. Steph put on her dress and she looked like a princess....I wish I had a ton of pictures to post and you would think being a mom I would have remembered my camera but I didn't so I am at the mercy of everyone else to send the pics my way. Besides the rain it seemed everything went smoothly, the ceremony was beautiful, Steph and Trevor looked amazing, the photographer found a "Plan B" location to take awesome photos and the reception was a blast! I was very honored to be a part of Steph and Trevor's special day, I hope it was everything they could have imagined! Here are a few pics from the weekend....

Well, like I said I didn't take my camera this past weekend, which secretly may have to do with the fact that we kind of need a new camera. My sister Nicki has an awesome camera and when we were visiting for her graduation in June she took some amazing pictures. These were taken the beginning of June so Hannah is about 6 1/2 months in them.

I haven't blogged much about all the festivities that go on when we go visit the fam in Cali, but it is always so much fun. Ping pong is a favorite past time....

As you could tell by the "guest bloggers", Daddy and Hannah spent the weekend together while I traveled to Columbus to celebrate with Steph and get some much needed girl bonding time. It was Steph's bachelorette weekend!!! I have to admit it was horribly difficult to walk out the door and leave Chuck and Hannah on Saturday morning but once I got on the road and made it to Steph's it was just a blast. The weather put a damper on things (literally), but everything else was perfect!! Since it was a bachelorette party I am prohibited from sharing any details but I will share a few pics!! Congratulations Steph, can't wait to celebrate more on your big day!!!

As the saying goes "while the cat is away, the mice will play," while mommy is away at a well deserved "bachelorette weekend" the guest bloggers look forward to sharing their weekend with you that will surely involve lots of candy and sweets and of course long talks about Hannah's favorite baseball player David Wright!

Yup, she is crawling......time to break out the babylegs!

I have to admit, it was kind of a bust, but we managed. We had a great day planned, we were going to go visit the new baby Lee, go to the pool, grill out then go see fireworks! Like I said, it was a bust, rained all day long....we did get to go see Declan (baby Lee) and he is sooooo cute!! The rest of the day we just hung out at home....instead of grilling out we ended up going dinner with Aunt Amy! I guess Hannah will have to wait until next year to see Fireworks.
I did take a bunch of pictures...like I said we were just stuck at home....

I've got a much better video of Hannah attempting to crawl that I will upload later...but this will give you the general idea....

I have to write about this because I have been horrible at writing things in Hannah's baby book so I am really hoping I will be able to find a website that I can make this blog into Hannah's baby book! That being said, now that Hannah is eating more, moving around more and has become a belly sleeper she is sleeping through the night!!! Well, some nights she is sleeping through the night, it is definitely not a regular occurance yet but I think we are getting there and this makes me sooooooooo happy.
I got an email from daycare yesterday that said Hannah has been all over the room today, they had no idea how she was doing it because every time they would look in at her she was looking back at them but she was moving around! I am guessing crawling is just around the corner which means Chuck and I should maybe babyproof this weekend!
We don't have much planned for this weekend, but it is the 4th of July, it will be interesting to see what Hannah thinks of fireworks!! Today Matt and Ashley are having their baby, we can't wait to meet the new baby Lee!!
Here are some pictures from last weekend.....
