I'm Exhausted

Not exhausted like brand spanking new baby exhausted but it's close. However, this isn't because of Hannah. It's because my cousin Kerstyn is here visiting and we did a lot today! On the Hannah front though I do have some great updates. First of all, we are no longer all sleeping in the same bed. This is pretty bittersweet for me because I love cuddling with my baby and waking up to her smiley face. The downsides were a sore back and hips and she had started to wake up every few hours so I wasn't getting much sleep. We decided to take the plunge and guess what, we apparently chose the right time to do so because not only is she sleeping through the night with only 1-2 wake ups per night but she is also taking her naps in her crib as well. It's pretty amazing, I'm not going to lie. I still do have some cuddle times during naps when she decides to fall asleep while being carried.
Since my last post, we have also various play dates which Hannah adores although she doesn't quite get that pinching and pulling isn't fun for other kids. She has discovered that it's not fun when other kids sit on you.



We have finally gotten new furniture! If you didn't know, our old furniture was this durablend "leather" which translates into pieced together leather which then translates into flakes of fake leather all over your floor. Since Hannah has also started crawling (yep, crawling) and putting everything in her mouth including fake pieces of leather we decided it was time for a change. The dogs are enjoying it at least and Marvel and DC seemed to find the one sunny spot that day the below picture was taken. 
Hannah has also discovered that there is more than just one smile in life. She now enjoys full on scrunchy face smiling which is pretty hilarious.
And of course since I mentioned that Kerstyn is here and we will be busy showing her around in the next week here are a few shots from Zilker Kite Festival that we went to today. It's truly and amazing sight to see so many beautiful kites and such a ridiculous amount of people.

Thank you and goodnight!
