Tooth Appears...still waiting!!
Come little tooth...come quickly!

Hannah had all of these symptoms the past week and yet no tooth has appeared. We thought for sure it would be here by now, but we wait patiently...very patiently. She was a crabby girl for 4 or 5 days and now seems to be over it. I guess she will be fine until the tooth really comes! While she is waiting on her tooth, here are some things she has been doing with her time.
Getting into EVERYTHING! Here she is pulling up on the end table. What you can't see if that she already knocked 3 games and 2 cameras off of the shelf.
Moving 90 miles an hour. She is fast, fast, fast!



Reading a new book with Mommy. Great Grandpa John and Great Grandma Nancy sent her a cute Halloween book. Thanks Grandpa and Grandma, we read it twice last night!
Playing with my toys in my toy basket. If she looks like she gained about 30 pounds, it is just the sweat shirt. Kyle got it for her as 7-month birthday present from his new place of employment and the smallest size they had was 2T!
Trying her best to escape and go up the stairs. She can now go all the way to the top by herself. Before she was just climbing to the third step and then looking down and getting scared. Now she will go all the way, but has taken some tumbles.

Stair Master

While I was typing my last post and carefully watching Hannah, this is what she was working on. She made it up to the second step all by herself. She probably would have made it up even higher if her mom and Gramma hadn't freaked out and congratulated her on her accomplishment so loudly. She is so independent but the one thing she refuses to do is to hold her own bottle. We are trying to transition to a sippy cup but she won't hold it, even with handles. She is fine drinking from it if someone else is holding it. Funny girl!
