Two






Hannah's 2nd birthday was so much fun! Daddy and I snuck presents into her crib before she woke up so she'd have a fun day from the beginning. We gave her a wooden play kitchen and had balloons on it so she'd see it as soon as she came out of her room. She's been playing "cook in the kitchen" each day since. Poppa, Granny, and Aunt Amy came up for her party that evening, and she was surrounded by friends and so much love on her special day. Daddy and I made her a cookie cake with a playground scene with Abby Cadabby and Elmo, her favorite Sesame Street characters. She gobbled up her piece of cake and she had a huge smile on her face when everyone sang "Happy Birthday" to her. She was spoiled rotten with all the toys and clothes she received. It was really wonderful to have a house full of such special people to us. Aunt Amy was able to stay 2 nights and we had a great visit with her!

Hannah seems to have even more energy now that she's 2!! She's not as keen on her nap anymore and sometimes plays with her stuffed animals for an hour before she gives in to sleep. Her language continues to explode with new words and phrases. She says 5 word sentences now and it's fun to have conversations with her now. Daddy taught her to say "Hannah Jit" when asked her name and Judy taught her that I am Mommy Jit and Andrew is Daddy Jit!

Our Family

Andrew and Jamie met while she was visiting New Zealand and volunteering with children's ministry at Shore Community Church. Our matchmaker, a dear friend named Robyn, took every opportunity to make our paths cross and long story short we quickly realized how lucky we were that she did. We were married in January 2006 and have lived in New Zealand, Georgia, Kentucky, and currently live in Ohio. God blessed us with an amazing little miracle, Hannah Lynn, on December 20, 2009. This blog was started to allow family and friends around the world to see her growing up, even if they don't get to see her as often in person as we'd like. We are very blessed and thank the Lord every day for His amazing gifts to us!
