Hannah turned 7 today. She is my oldest child, my guinea pig. She looks nearly identical to all my childhood pictures, but she has her daddy's mouth. She has two missing front teeth, two adult teeth on the bottom already in, and two more loose teeth. Nancy Drew books are her new favorite. She is reading more fluidly aloud and tearing through chapter books on her own. She enjoys doing Math lessons, but doesn't like handwriting at all. She is a collector. She loves to draw and craft. She wants to learn to use the sewing machine this year. She loves to eat seafood. She's a daddy's girl. She is the one the other kids look up to and adore, following her around like puppies. She currently wants to own her own ice cream shop when she grows up. She would rather dress for comfort than style. She's a little on the bossy side. :) She is an excellent helper and loves organizing. She likes to keep busy and will offer to clean or help out if she gets bored. Her favorite color has been red her whole life. She's a problem solver. She's more of a thinker than a feeler. She has a strong conscience and a love for rules. We love her like crazy. Happy birthday, Hannah!
First thing this morning, Genna helped make her breakfast in bed. Genna helped me make pumpkin waffles. That was only part of Genna's gift to her sister. She also made her a butterfly out of a rock.
She opened a few presents in the morning.
Her birthday was a busy day. We cut down our Christmas tree for various scheduling reasons a bit early this year. The girls were not huge fans of the particular tree we picked, but they had no actual reasons for their preference. (Drew, not in the picture, was asleep.)
We also hung out with our guest, Hannah and Isaac's godfather.
She opened a couple more presents that came in the mail.
The kids were wired after all the sugar. All in all, it was a good day to celebrate our Hannah!
