Quick Successions: New Mexico Edition

Hannah is a year old already.  It has been a big year for her.  She went to Europe twice and Canada once.  She also went to several states: Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, and Wyoming. At nine months she got a green fracture in her arm and had to have a splint for four weeks.  She learned to sleep in her crib and how to say many important words like duck, dog, cookie, cracker, book, hi, uh oh, and my favorite of all: mama.

We went to Kansas over fall break and stayed with my friend and academic advisor Mary Lynn.  We had a great time talking and playing with the baby.

Hannah likes books.  I started reading to her when she was about two weeks old.  She has a little bookshelf full of books and we read a few every day.  She also likes stacking and sorting them.  Maybe we have a future librarian or researcher on our hands. Now that she is talking more, she "reads" by herself making adorable gibberish sounds.
