Hannah
day 2.

We were
given these 2 instant camera photos by the staff at the neo natal unit,
when we visited her the first time.

The sound
and sight of the other Mums and their Babies crying was awful,
when all we had was 2 photos.

Hannah
arrives home from the hospital in the car seat.

Hannah's
first cuddle at home.

Lovely
to have a cuddle at home.

Hannah doing
her early morning workout.

Hannah slept
through the whole appointment when we registered her birth.

A very tired
Daddy (with a briefly quiet) and wide awake Hannah
during the very, very early hours of the morning

Hannah fast
asleep in her Moses basket.

Don't mess
with a woman and her bottle before bedtime!
(If you look really closely you can see a tiny drop of milk on her nose!)

Hannah after
she has finished the bottle,
ready for bed and still wearing the drop of milk on her nose!
(OK she need a wash first...)

Hannah
and her Oscar Cat.

Hannah
can now smile back at us but it is difficult to take a photo of her smiling
as the camera gets in the way.
She is not smiling here but sticking her tongue out hinting that she wants 'dinner'..

Hannah's
denim is a bit on the big side and she hates getting dressed in it.

Once on it
makes her arms stretch out like a capital 'T'.

1 very spoilt
baby!

Hannah trying
out her big girl cot and watching her mobile.

Red Nose Day.

Is that a
smile for the camera?

new present!

Hannah's
1st riding lesson.

You think
my hair is turning ginger!!!!

Look how
big I have grown.

I'm ready
for my wash.

Officially
3 months old and I can already read!

I've got
the fish in my hand.

Yes I am
still holding that fish!

What are Nanny, Grandad & Aunty eating for breakfast?

I can guess what I am going to have for my breakfast!

Hannah the computer wizz (trying hard not to dribble on the keyboard).

My first go on my bouncer.

Finally 1
big smile for the camera!

My vest says 'Hug me'...

So come on 'Give us a hug then!

My cot is too small!

Time to upgrade my accomodation.

Big stretch!

Having a new bed is very exciting.

Good Morning Mum, Good morning Dad!

This is me having fun on my gym.

Ok Mummy what is in that parcel?

You've bought me a present! Yay!

Look at me I'm siting in my 'big girl' chair.

RIght now then back to work, time to play with my caterpillar.

Now let me just have a good look at the 1st piece.

This feels nice, I wonder what it tastes like..

Can't talk now I've got my mouth full.

mmmm intersting taste but I love the texture of it.

Thankyou Mummy & Daddy for my new chair.

ooo is that my foot?
I know that we have visitors but there is only so much excitement I can take
in 1 day.

Wake me up when it is all over.

Good Morning Mummy!

Good Morning fingers!

Yummy dinner!

Smile before bathtime.

1 sock off so I can see my toes.

I'm trying hard to loose the other sock to,

Daddy bought me my Little Roo jacket.

Do you like my teddy bear ear?

Look into my eyes, my big blue eyes.

Is it nearly bath time?

I love my Dad!
