Rediscovering an old favorite

In preparation for the arrival of Hannah-Bear's little brother, some of the infant toys have been brought back out. I'm not sure she remembers that this was hers, she acts as though it is brand new!



Sharing with her babies:



And for a blast from the past....

checking out daddy's new ride

It was raining last night, but that did not stop him from playing with his new "baby" a little. Hannah was thrilled to get to wait up past her bedtime to see Daddy.





So far she's keeping a safe distance between the bike and herself. Although the pics don't seem to indicate it, she seems to like it. Now if I can get her to not want to pet our woodchuck.


She did sit on the motorcycle with Daddy for a few seconds today. Then she got mad that she could not ride it with him.

Hannah decided she wanted to play with her saucer tonight. Normally, she wants out less than a minute after being put in. This time she kept busy with the toys for at least 10 minutes. Unfortunately she's getting big enough to try to climb out, so I can't use it to secure her while I shower anymore! But at least she is still using it.

Garage-Sale Treasure!!!

I got to go to the Post Office by myself this morning. Mrs. Sharon asked where my little one was, and laughed when I said, "home with Daddy!" Since I had a little time to myself, I decided to see if there were any Garage Sales in the area. I drove past some new neighborhoods... no signs at the entrances, so I kept going. I made a circle back toward my house, and saw a sign in front of one of the older homes with a long driveway. I saw other cars there, plenty of space to turn around... I couldn't resist.

A small child's table immediately caught my eye. I had checked to see how much cash I had, as I don't normally have much with me. The price was fair, but it was a garage sale, and half the fun of garage saleing is seeing what kind of bargains you can get. Plus, we are on a budget. I asked if they would take $5 off the asking price, and they did!!! Yay!!!!

It didn't matter that the table was painted a little more boyish. The size was perfect. It will fit upstairs in the bonus room, and Hannah fell in love with it as soon as the chairs were set on the driveway. She got mad when we took them inside, but her anger was short-lived.

She has been playing at it for 10 minutes already.
