More of Hannah's sibling admirers plus Daddy!

Everybody loves big Daddy!

Hannah just needs to get a bit bigger,
and then she'll get to go on dates with Dad like everyone else loves to do.
Samuel is a good baby holder.
He helps me often by taking her for a few minutes at a time.

Tyler loves babies and stares dreamily into Hannah's sweet face
anytime he gets her in his arms.

Isaac is always saying, "Hold it? Hold it?"

Josiah is the ONLY one who holds Hannah for short periods.
He does so often, but never for long.
Everyone else wants to keep her for quite awhile.

Isaac's kiss

Isaac loves his baby sister.
He's always saying, "Ooooh, tyoot!"
(translation: tyoot = cute)


Hannah's photo shoot

There are great advantages to having an aspiring photographer in the family.
Jessica held her first photo shoot with Hannah last week when she was just a few days old.
Here is some of her work:





























Baby Hannah smiles! (in her sleep, of course)

I played dress up with Hannah first thing this morning
and took this picture with my phone camera
which is not known for catching the moment very well.
This was an exception as Hannah gave a cute little grin
in her sleep at just the right moment.
(This sweet little smocked dress came from a thrift store for $0.50!)
Bethany sewed this little jumper for Hannah back in June.
It's so cute on her!

Is that not a cute little pink foot? It's sooo soft!

Sweet sleepy girl


Is Mom coming yet?



These pictures were taken outside the hospital while I was being wheeled out in what looked like an odd grocery cart. The boys kept asking, "Is she coming yet?"

Momma's last pic while pregnant.

I snapped this real quick right before we left for the hospital at 4:20 am.
I had been awake, though trying to sleep, since 12:50 am.
(I've made up for a lot of lost sleep since the birth!)
