Hannah - 3 years old

2-13-12
Hannah had her 3 year check up and she's still on the higher end of the scale. 90%tile for both height (38 3/4") and weight (36.5 lbs). It took her a little bit to warm up to Dr. Hansen, but he got her to talking. She even told him that I love to give her spankings. There was a little pause in the conversation, me trying to decide how he would react and him trying to keep a straight face.  But luckily we share the same view in discipline. Sometimes it takes a talking to, sometimes a time-out and sometimes a spanking when kids don't listen.

Oh kids. And this is just the beginning of things coming out of their mouth when you least expect it!

While there are days when the "trying 3s" are very much present, for the most part Hannah is still our sweet and funny little girl. And you never know what will come out of her mouth. Her imagination has kicked up. For awhile there, she was saying she was Beth, Nicole was Billi, Rodney was Alvin and I was Danica. Bowdrie and Brooklyn were present also, just not visible.
She loves to do "projects"; glitter glue and scissors are always a hit. Play-doh. Or helping me make something in the kitchen. She likes to dump the ingredients in and mix.
Most of the time she gets along with her little sister, even though she likes to have or do whatever Nicole is having/doing at the time and little sister doesn't like that very much. Siblings-best of friends and worst of enemies.
She still likes her animals. Helps with the chores every night. Likes to feed the cats and give the chickens their food. She's trying to convince her daddy that we need a puppy. Will see if that happens. :)
Likes to ride in the pickup with Rodney and help him with his errands. She's always up for a trip to town. Likes to go shopping, finds a lot of things she "needs".
Already has selective hearing down.

I'll think of more later, but need to sign off. Hannah is making a mess in Nicole's room, "entertaining" her.
