Hannah celebrated her 3rd birthday a few weeks ago. And to be honest in some ways it feels like she was 2 for forever (i think being pregnant for most of the year was the cause of this), but then again, sometimes it feels like she was a sweet little baby in my arms just yesterday. Wierd, right?!
Planning what to do for Hannah's party was a little difficult. When Abby turned 3 (and 4 for that matter) she knew exactly what she wanted to do, what she wanted to have, and what she wanted to get. (Bowling; A Pink cake; and of course two bumblebees, a pink hammer, binoculars, and a bike). Thus it was easy to please Abby.... just do what she said. Hannah on the other hand, had NO idea what she wanted. (It is amazing to see the difference in personalities those two have!) I would ask Hannah what do you WANT for you birthday? Or what do you want to DO for your birthday? She would then spout out in some mumble jumble whatever, and I would be left to interpret. So because of this (and because her birthday landed on a Sunday) Hannah's birthday was kind of low key. I don't think she minded one bit!
Grandma and Grandpa Bates sent Hannah a birthday card the could be punched out and made into a crown! Hannah LOVED it!!!!
Since Hannah wasn't particular about her cake, I decided to experiment. We made brownie waffles! Served them up with ice cream, whip cream and sprinkles. Very Yummy!!!
Hannah was thrilled!
Another difference between Abby and Hannah is that Abby LOVES attention. (Those of you who know her can vouch for me on this fact!) She absolutely thrives when all the attention is on her. As for Hannah, well, not so much. She got really shy and quiet as we were watching her open the presents. She kind of looks mad. But she absolutely LOVED everything she got.
Her very own stroller!
For her very own doll!
Uncle Nick gave her this cute hat. She wears it everyday!
So despite how unhappy and serious Hannah looks in these pictures. I know she had a great birthday! Thank you to all who came or called to make her day special. We love you little Hannah Bug!
