Growing up is hard to do

Hannah: Look, Daddy!

Me (seeing that she had stuck Play Doh all over her face): You can't stick Play Doh on your mouth are you crazy?

Hannah: Big girls do that sometimes.

Don't tread on me

Hannah had quite a time over Christmas with a couple of Nativity sets we had.

I thought I had put them all in the attic, but it turns out she had taken one and hidden it in her step stool, which has a door to put things in.

After her bath I was getting her to get up on it so I could brush our teeth, when this happened:

Hannah: Baby Jesus is in there.

Me: What?

Hannah (opening the door): Look!

Me: Oh. He is in there.

Hannah: I close the door so I don't step on Baby Jesus.

Me: Yeah you shouldn't step on Baby Jesus, that'd be bad.

Hannah: He not like it! He be crying! Waaaaaah

Au Contrarianism, Part Deux

Julie: You wanna take a nap with me, Hannah?

Hannah: No. I wanna be awake with you.

Young love

We went to a birthday party for Hannah's friend Rhema on Sunday. Hannah loves Rhema, who she calls "Rainbow," and is also obsessed with Rhema's older brother, Ezra.

While we were at the party, Ezra went outside to play. After a while, Hannah decided she wanted to go out and play with him. I took her to put on her jacket and shoes, and this is what she told me:

"I like Ezra so so so much."

"He's a sweet boy."

Hoop Dreams

Hannah and I went to Auburn's basketball game Saturday.

I told her late that morning we'd be going, and she proceeded to spend the next six hours asking me if she could have a) a hot dog with mustard, and b) "skippers" (Skittles).

here she is once she finally got those skippers (notice her cheeks poking out with them)


She got a little bored in the second half until she noticed a 5-year-old boy sitting in front of us. once she finally got his attention he told her his name. She responded "I'm Hannah with an H"

On the way home I asked Hannah if she liked the basketball game.

"Uh huh. Sometimes I just want to stay here," she said.

Happy New Year!

Me: What's your New Year's resolution Hannah?

Hannah: Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm ... Cookie.

That's a good place to put it

Julie: Did Hannah eat her meatloaf?

Me: Yeah, unless she hid it somewhere I can't see.

Hannah: It's in my mouth!
