The Prophet Said To Plant A Garden

So that's what we'll do...





And hopefully this year it won't die like every other year we've tried. You can't say we aren't persistent. We just have black thumbs.

Hannah Jabber

Walking down the aisles at Walmart...through the doll aisle she gets really excited and signs "baby", she loved seeing all the babies on the shelf last week. Then we went through the sippy cup aisle to pick up some new pink princess cups and she started signing "drink".

Reading her a book about opposites I read "heavy, light" She made the sign for light (like bright thing on the ceiling).

My favorite thing she says right now is when I am calling the boys then she copies me and starts shouting "boys, boys!"

Taylor: How is my girl?
Hannah: Big!

While reading a book she pointed at a man wearing a hat and signed "hat".

She loves to say "Jesus" now and it's so cute. The other day we saw a picture of his birth and I said it was Jesus as a baby. She said "Jesus" and signed "baby".

At the end of every prayer Hannah proudly announces "Amen!"

Saturday morning she picked up a dress I had just got out now that it's finally warm and insisted I put it on her. She got impatient through the diaper change and kept handing me the dress. Once it was finally on she said "pretty".



All Hannah's verbal words (that I can think of right now)...boys, hi, bye, Jesus, dad, mom, baby, pretty, big, ball, dog, duck, fish, shoes, amen, no, hot, teeth, down, Hannah, banana, book, hat, boo, eyes, ow, bath, James, love you, that one

More Shoes

These shoes came from my SIL Mindy and they are so perfect with this shirt. Same flowers, same colors. Love it! Hannah and I could really go crazy in the shoe department if we don't watch out...

Let's Go Fly A Kite

Was really windy yesterday so we headed to the park! So much fun!

Summer Peasant Dress

Here is a new dress I made for Hannah last Saturday because I wanted to sew something cute that was not a baby bumper for another person. I love these dresses because they are so fast and easy and always turn out amazingly cute. Plus I have so many adorable scraps that I have to use for something. These fabrics are actually some of the ones to be used in Hannah's toddler room...yes I have already schemed out most of the decorating and bought a lot of the fabric for her quilt. I am a prepared woman.



She was being such a ham, but for some reason the camera was blurry and yellow tinted for the first few pictures...



Happy 15 months old Han!

Flowers

Taylor and the boys went to the "library" Friday afternoon before Mother's Day and came home with these flowers. I was unaware you could purchase flowers at libraries, but I guess ours is special. They planted them in our flower box right away. The boys got pictures out by the flowers they got and of course James had to have his Bible so he would look like a missionary ("I don't like the Book of Mormon anymore, I'm obsessed with Bibles"). So Matthias brought along the Animal Book.
