Hold Your Applause, Please

Hannah has found clapping this week. It is very cute, especially since she holds her hands out really wide and then misses about 1 in 3 times when she tries to clap them together. She claps at all times that she deems appropriate, usually meaning that she claps when she is bored or when others keep clapping first. She also likes hitting things together, such as blocks or bottles. It is keeping her very entertained. On another note - I have found that Hannah much prefers things that are not toys to things that are. She looks at you bored after about 2 minutes of playing with any one toy, but give her a wooden spoon, her shoe, or a piece of crumpled paper and she is entertained for hours. And now that she is becoming very efficient at crawling and pulling up on things - you don't have to give her anything to play with because she will certainly venture out on her own to find something she shouldn't be in that is so much more fun than anything you could've given her. The baby-proofing has begun!

Hannah Is Crawling!!!

Hannah is crawling - yay!!! Or wait, maybe I should rethink that. She was just rolling and army crawling before and it was hard enough keeping up with everything she was getting into. At least she is pulling up onto furniture now. That seems to occupy most of her time and she stays in one place. For now. ;)
