January

Well, unfortunately we left the camera in Columbia at Christmas and weren't able to remember where we left it for a month or so...so the pictures of January are few. But no fear, the multitude of pictures from December (that I am still going through!) and likewise the multitude of February pictures (that I now plan to take since our camera has returned!) will make up for it :) So here's January...

Hannah has become quite the runner. She loves to run and is REALLY fast! I asked her recently what she liked to do and one of her responses (along with read books) was "run in the house!". She particularly loves to be chased around and shrieks as she darts from one end of the house to the other. And then she usually runs into a closet and shuts the door...not sure why, but this is amusing to her. And then she's as quiet as possible in hopes that no one will find her :) Anyway...this is Hannah running around, wearing quite possibly the cutest outfit ever, courtesy of Gramma Jan.


3 generations of Mees after a great visit


Eating Gigi A's strawberry jam...yum! Note the large amounts of jam on hands, face, and belly.


Washing dishes, of course...about once a day we fill up the sink with warm suds and "wash" all of Hannah's dishes. She's getting pretty good at it!


UPDATE: We found more January pictures that I had taken with my phone...glad we found them!

One of the many snow days! Playing with Evan and Declan. Of course...about 20 minutes of getting ready for about 5 minutes of playing in the snow :)







Snow ice cream!




Following in Papa A's footsteps with her love for Cheetos. She asked for a couple and then ended up taking the bag and helping herself :)


We went to the Sprint Center and saw Elmo Sesame Street Live! This was our first time ever at the Sprint Center and it was lots of fun! Hannah loved seeing all of the characters and she actually sat still for the entire show--about 2 hours! I was so proud of how she did :)




Sound asleep in the car shortly after leaving Elmo. I like this picture b/c you can see her sparkly shoes which she loves.



Goofing off!






Aunt Carla came to visit!




And we visited Columbia too! Hannah got to hang out with some of her cousins during the day. The Dyers had a new computer and Kate new how to work it so she put in Toy Story for us :)


These pictures are from The Grove play area at Zona Rosa shopping center. This is a fun place to play and we went their one Saturday for some family time.
