21 weeks

My happy girl!  She is always in the best mood, unless she is hungry or tired.  She is full of smiles, squeals of delight, and almost laughter.  Her sweet personality is already showing these days, and we just fall more in love with her every day.  I weighed her on our scale this week, and she is up to 11 lbs!  It's sad to hold up clothes that use to look so big on her, and now they are starting to look way too small for our growing girl.

Hannah at 3 weeks old (4.8 lbs) and almost 5 months old (11 lbs).
She has changed so much!  When I look at this picture, I almost cannot remember her being that tiny. 

Hannah loves playing with toys.  She has been reaching for things more lately and waving her rattles in the air.

My happy girl seems to like her new highchair.  I bought this at the consignment sale last week.  I had planned to skip the highchair and go straight to a booster seat, but with Hannah's size a highchair seemed best.  She is still a little small for it, but it wont be long now before we start introducing solids.  I have a feeling she will go through a big growth spurt then.  She likes to play with toys while sitting up like this.  It's easy for her to reach them, and she likes being close to mommy while I am cooking dinner. 

I am so excited about the Easter season this year!  More so now that we have Hannah.  I am looking forward to teaching her about Jesus and the enormous price he paid for us and how the story did not end there!
