Hannah’s Birthday Celebration

Hannah had a wonderful birthday. The day before we took her to Chuck E. Cheese to play, and ride on the toddler rides. Grandpa flew in to help celebrate and Nannie and her uncle Jakob have been here with us already. She was not too sure of the rides at first but began to have fun after the first few rides. I think she liked it better when the rides were not moving. She loved watching Chuck E. Cheese and all his friends dance and sing on the stage. She participated in the dancing part as she loves to dance. We also went to Olive Garden as she loves to eat spaghetti. She enjoyed having some peach tea while we were there too. Hannah was so excited her birthday was finally here that she woke up early to begin the celebration. Grandpa had gone early to get her Krispy Kreme as she loves the glazed donuts. She opened all her gifts in the morning, we all had to show her how to unwrap as she was not sure what to think of the whole thing. I think her uncle did most of the unwrapping which was fun for him. Her big gifts were already put together, thanks to dad who stayed up late putting the pieces all together and the batteries in so they would be ready to use right away. She had a wonderful day playing with all her toys and she just loves her ball pit. She is fearless and dives right in. We had a birthday dinner and celebrated with birthday cake. She had a smash cake that we were not sure if she would even do anything with but she ended up accidentally sticking her hand in it and then she began to realize how fun it was. For all you who know Hannah you know how fast things change so one minute it was fun and the next it was not, she wanted to be clean. Dad rushed her up for her birthday bath and she was so tired from the long day she fell a sleep shortly after that. It was a good day so thank-you to my parents who were here to help with all the different things and to all those who thought of Hannah on her 1st Birthday.
