Our Hannah-Bug

As promised, I am FINALLY going to blog about our sweet Hannah, who is now 8 months old! Time really has flown by, and that makes me a little sad. Life with 2 really makes a big difference. I haven't stopped to take nearly as many pictures or video of Hannah, as it is more difficult to balance time between she and Conner. Conner still gets most of our attention, probably because he is so busy, and we can interact more with him. He definitely hasn't had any reason to feel jealous or left out! Because Hannah is such a good baby, she has allowed this to happen. But I'm sure the time is coming where she will be ready for us to play more with her! And once she is mobile and can get into Conner's toys, WATCH OUT! That is when things will get interesting.

What's going on with Hannah these days? Well, she hasn't crawled yet. She still doesn't have any signs of teeth coming in, although she does like to chew on things. She had tubes put in her hears 4 days before Christmas. I lost track of how many ear infections she's had. But even through all that, she was a great baby. We've never lost any sleep, and really haven't since she was 10 weeks old! She does have blue eyes, even though neither Jeremy nor myself have them. I'm still not convinced they will stay blue, but it would be cool if they did! When she's not sick, she will drain an 8-ounce bottle of formula. She eats cereal twice a day, but we still haven't given her "real" food yet. Our pediatrician says that babies can get all they need from formula up until 9 months, so why create more work for yourself? I like that advice! Of course, I know there are exceptions to that, but in our case it has worked out just fine. So to all you grandmas out there who think I'm starving my baby, chill out! I'm just following doctor's orders....sort of. :)
