Sweet Boiba (1/07)



When the New Year rolled in, Hannah started to became more of a person and less of a fragile infant. We started to see elements of her personality come out. She was happy, social, curious, and just about the sweetest little girl you could imagine. Maria was great with giving her tummy time and singing to her constantly. Her favorite song around this time was Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes, and every time we sang it or played it on CD, Hannah would brighten up with a big smile.

January is also the month that Maria went back to work and Linda, Hannah's Nanny, started taking care of her during the day. Linda did a great job taking care of Hannah from day one, always playing with her, singing songs, teaching her things, and taking her for walks along the water. Maria worked from home at the time, so she got to sneak away for a quick kiss or hug with Hannah, but it's always been a challenge managing our careers and raising Hannah. We're very fortunate to have Linda though, as she loves Hannah very much.

Hannah weighed 12lb 1oz, was 24.75 inches long, and her head was 42cm.
