Campbell Chaos

This week was a crazy week at the Campbell household. Hannah was sick the first part of the week & ended up getting tubes put in her ears. She immediately felt sooooo much better that it led to a week full of silliness & renewed energy...and therefore 'Campbell chaos'! :-) Gran & Big Ed came & stayed a few days to help out. (Thanks a million you guys!) The end of the week has been spent with my family. My sister & 2 of her girls are visiting from Texas. Hannah & the girls are having a blast. I will post pics of them soon, but for now, here are a few pics of her from the first of the week. She was quite the ham!

Hannah is playing in her tutu & wondering why she can't stand up in the chair!




Here she is standing on the couch & thinks it hilarious when I tell her to sit down!


Thank you Gran & Big Ed for helping with H this week. As you can see, she had lots of fun.




This is Hannah's new silly face. She knows it cracks us up so anytime she is getting into trouble, she immediately puts on this face.

Hannah's 1st birthday

Hannah turned 1 on Saturday. I still can't believe it, but this time last year, we were bringing home a 5 pound little girl from the hospital. We celebrated with grandparents, Aunts, & Uncles. She was quite entertaining...she has learned to dance, blow kisses, & practially run behind her doll stroller (although she isn't walking unassisted yet). The best part of the day was her eating her cake. She dove into it & barely left a crumb! Here are a few pics of the day. Thanks to everyone for all of the presents. :-)


Hannah in her new rocking chair that her Daddy bought & painted her name on. The bow stayed on for about 60 secs!




Hannah's birthday cake.



The birthday girl in her party dress. She wasn't too happy with the dress or the hat! :-(




Pre-party pic. I still can't believe all the gifts she recieved!



Hannah taking a 'danity' little bite of her cake.



At this point, the cake was reduced to crumbs so we had to resort to a spoon.

Need a vacation to recover from vacation!!!

Well, we are back from our first beach "vacation". We had a good time but are pretty tired. Hannah had a cold most of the week so she (nor her parents) didn't sleep well. We got out on the beach for a little while everyday but she really didn't get to enjoy until the last day when she finally was feeling better. We stayed with our good friends Scott & Elizabeth ( I think we are still friends after this crazy week, right??!! lol) They were troopers & helped us out with Hannie. Once she felt better, she loved the water & eating the sand. Here are a few pics.

Hannah's first sand encounter. What is the sticky white stuff??

Aren't YOU going to build me something to knock down?

Beach babe!

She loved the pool & stayed in until she was all shriveled up!

Baby or monkey? She's always climbing something!

How did that come out of this bucket??

Vacation time!

We are headed to the beach on Tuesday. I was getting everything together today & as always, she insisted on 'helping' me pack! I will post some pics when we get back.


From the looks of this, I think we will be building lots of sand castles to knock over!

Happy Easter!

Hope everybod had a great Easter. As you can see above, Hannah enjoyed hunting Easter eggs. We went to Uncle Wes's & Aunt Brandi's for the afternoon. Brandi was hiding Easter eggs for her nephew & I had just uttered the words "just think, next year we will be hiding these for Hannah, too." Hannah began to wiggle to get out of my lap & crawled right over to a 'hidden' egg & picked it right up! She never misses a thing!


The Easter bunny brought Hannah a swing. Do you think she likes it?! :-)


Well, Hannah needed a place to hang her swing that the Easter bunny brought, so Lee HAD to build a deck for her. Ha! We are waiting on our swing to arrive. I also still have to plant something in the planters & to run up the pergola. I think we will be spending lots of time here.

9 month portraits

Lee & I took Hannah for her 9 month pictures last weekend. Yes, I know that she will be 10 months tomorrow, but it's just the best that a working girl could do. Hannah's wheels are constantly spinning so it was quite the challenge to get her to sit still long enough to take the pictures. I was constantly putting her back in place! She also has a new 'trick'....sticking her tongue out, which was capture numerous times in the photos. Needless to say, by the time it was all over, we were all exhausted....but we did manage to get some good pictures. Hope you enjoy.


This was just the beginning....mommy is so proud of this dress but i just wanna crawl...with my tongue sticking out!



Okay, the chair is pretty cool....I'll sit still momentarily!



Seriously, I wanna get out of this dress & crawl!!





Okay, new dress & new chair. I'm a good girl!



Still being a good girl!


Okay, I like the teddy bear & sticking my tongue out!


Catch me if you can............




All I needed were flowers to play with & I would have sat still the entire time! :-)

Relaxing weekend

Today is a beautiful spring day. Lee is in the process of building a deck so Hannah & I sat outside to 'supervise' the process. In this picture, she is holding one of her favorite toys. I have no clue why she likes rubber duckies so much but we have them all over the house...from the bathtub to her crib. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
