We Have Roll Over!

Hannah attempted to roll over today and succeeded. Yippee! The first time she rolled over I was slow at getting the action on video. However, I managed to get her the second time around.

Town Deer


Here is a shot of the Town Deer (Bucks) that came to visit us last night. They were feasting on the greens in the yard. They must be seeking refuge as bow season opens up this weekend.

Hannah's First Swim

We went over to Boise for the weekend, and statyed at a hotel with an indoor pool. Hannah got a short taste of what it's like to swim. Pictures and video to follow. If your computer has a slow connection, let the movies buffer first and then watch them. (Basically, hit play, and then pause. Let the faded red bar complete the movie, and then hit play again. This will help you to see the video without it being broken up with stops and starts.)

Hannah's First Night out in the Woods

We took Hannah on her first overnight trip to the woods. We stayed at a campground not far from town, just in case we had to make a midnight dash home. As we figured though, she did great and we all had a wonderful night.

Of course, like many of us, the fire was very mesmerizing to her, and kept her attention for some time.

Robbie set up the sleeping bags perfectly to allow me to feed Hannah through the night, and we all slept well. There is something about sleeping outside under the stars, and the sound of peace and quiet.

Here is a short video clip of Hannah taking care of nature's call outside the tent. (Only a baby could make this cute.) She has been able to go potty on the toilet for some time now, but has graduated to great outdoors women.

Huckleberry Picking

We went for a hike yesterday outside of town. It was a perfect day for a walk, not to hot, and we had the trail all to ourselves. We saw a few animal tracks; elk, deer, and bear.

I am glad I packed an extra plastic bag, as we stopped and picked huckleberries along the way.

Here are a few shots and short video of Miss Hannah getting her first real taste of solid food, well, dirt and huckleberry juice that is.

I'm looking forward to making something extra delicious with our bounty.
