Weekend Recap: Playing, Biting, and Pool Fun

Monday, again.  Sigh.

We had lots of fun this past weekend and I was much better at documenting it with photos, although there were lots of things I thought about after and wished I had taken a minute to take out my iPhone for.

Friday night, Vicki was in from Rhode Island so she came over with Alise to visit Hannah.  Hannah loved all the attention and additional playmates!  We ordered out yummy appetizers for dinner and just chatted.  So fun!

I was tired from the week so I got in bed early.  About an hour after I went to bed, I came out to the living room to find this.

I am sure Michael won't be happy that I am posting this photo, but it made me think of when I was first pregnant and so exhausted all the time.  I would go to bed early and Michael would say he wasn't tired yet,  After awhile I would realize Michael never came to bed, and I would come out to find him passed out on the couch!

Saturday was, one of my besties, Jackie's 30th birthday party.  

We woke up and enjoyed some morning snuggles with Hannah in our bed.  This is sometimes my most favorite part of the day.  Hannah wakes up so happy in the morning!

So upset this came out blurry!

My mom, sister and cousin came to watch Hannah while we went to Jackie's party.  I will do another post on the party this week.  But for now, here is the Instagram collage that I made.  We are such babies in some of these pictures!!  How is it possible that we are turning 30!?!  Love you Jacks!

Sunday, Hannah decided to sleep in until 8 and her mommy and daddy were very grateful for the extra sleep after a fun day on Saturday!  Then, I enjoyed some leftover cake for breakfast, while Hannah played with her toys.  Seriously, there is nothing better than cake in the morning!  (or really any time of day!!)

She sits for so long and just picks up toys, either bites them or shakes them and then throws them!

We made a quick trip the Gap (Friends and Family Sale and Hannah needed some new jammies!) and then Starbucks.  Hannah was very tired and fell asleep in the car on the way home.

After her nap and lunch, we went out to play in the baby pool!  I am in love with her Vera Bradley bathing suit and cover up!!  Too bad I couldn't get her to look at my for any pictures!!

Biting and playing with her paci.

Biting all of the pool toys!  

There has to be a tooth coming, right!?

After pool time, we relaxed and got ready for the week.  Hannah had a little accident playing with a Poland Spring bottle that resulted in lots of crying.  Even though she loves them, no more water bottles as toys!! 

Hope everyone has a great start to their week!  Michael is traveling for work starting this coming weekend, so we are looking forward to lots of togetherness this week before he has to leave us!

Weekend Recap: Shopping and Swimming

For me the weekend began on Thursday night.  We celebrated my mom's birthday with dinner in our backyard.  This was really the only good picture that I took besides the one of the cupcakes that I posted on Friday.

Hannah with Uncle Justin

Friday I took off from work to have a girl's day for my mom's birthday.  Hannah made a special present for Grandma, but she was really just interested in eating the paper and the bow.  She puts EVERYTHING in her mouth!  More on the gift later this week.

Then we went to the mall for some lunch and shopping at the Nordstrom anniversary sale.  Hannah got some cute coats for fall and winter- here she is trying on her new vest and headband.  I can't wait for her to wear it!!  It is crazy how lately I don't care at all about shopping for myself.  All I want to do is buy clothes and accessories for Hannah!  I am obsessed!

We measured her tiny little foot and she tried on some Uggs for size.

We ended the night with a little Daddy and Hannah play time.  It was such a fun day!!  I love getting to be with my mom and sister!

Saturday we went to our nephew Aidan's baseball game, but unfortunately we missed a lot of the game.  It takes us forever and a day to get out of the house now.  I hate being late and then when I married Michael I had to adjust since he is late for everything.  Now that we have Hannah, forget it!!  We cannot get out the door to save our lives!!  It was nice to get to see a little of the game though!  (Sorry Aidan!)  After we went to lunch and then came home and had a low key night.  Michael took Hannah for a walk and I made some pea baby food.  

I am bummed, I didn't take any pictures on Saturday.  One of the reasons I wanted to start a blog was so that I would be better at taking pictures and documenting our lives.  We were really good about it when Hannah was first born and then as we got busier, it got harder.  So I am trying!

Sunday was a nice day at home.  We spent the morning in our jammies and Hannah watched some golf with Daddy.  Michael is hoping for a little golf partner as soon as she is able!  He has been watching the Golf Network with her almost every morning since we first brought her home from the hospital.  

After some cleaning and a short nap for Hannah, we headed outside to enjoy the nice weather!!  She loves her baby pool!  Hannah rocked one of her new headbands from Friday's shopping trip.  I currently have 3 other colors in my cart online and am debating whether or not to get them.  They are so soft and stay on really well.

After a spit up incident in the baby pool, it was time to test out the big pool.  At first she seemed interested and was kicking her feet in the water, but once she got in it was an entirely different story!!  She was not a big fan of the pool!!

She was much happier after we took her out!  We will have to try again once the pool is warmer.

Check out those lashes!!  Lucky girl!!

We ended the night with some ice cream and Big Brother.  It was so nice to enjoy a three day weekend!

Fourth of July Weekend

Fourth of July weekend brought lots of first for Hannah, which means LOTS of pictures!  Her first fourth of July, her first time having baby cereal and her first time "swimming."

Thursday I was able to leave work early and even though the weather was crappy, it was nice to enjoy some time with Hannah.

Later, Aunt Emily came over to play and practice sitting up with Hannah.

Friday morning Hannah got her first taste of baby cereal.  Thanks for the adorable bib, Kristin!

Not so sure she likes it!

She was DONE with the cereal and just wanted her bottle.  We tried again after she finished her bottle  but she was still not having it, so we let her play with the spoon!

After a serious bath for Hannah it was time for some BBQ fun!  Our BBQ got moved indoors because of the weather but we still had a great time.

Fun with Aunts, Uncles and Cousins

Saturday we relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful weather.  We set up Hannah's baby pool and she got to rock her Fourth of July bathing suit!  

Not so sure about this whole pool thing.

Getting ready to go in.

She loved it!!

Her fan club came to watch!

 I die every time over that smile!!  She can't wait to "swim" again!

Aunt Emily came over and we practiced eating some more and then relaxed outside before bed.

Sunday was a nice day of relaxing as a family and cleaning before we had to go reality (work) on Monday.  We had a little after bath photo shoot, Hannah perfected her cereal eating and we enjoyed being together.
