Caleb and Daddy live from Hurricane IKE

Caleb and I took a few minutes to say hello from the edge of Hurricane IKE.

SuperBaby vs Hurricane Ike

As many of you know, Tammy and I were scheduled to get our introduction to our new home. Then along comes Ike to wreck those plans. Thankfully, we have something, or should I say someone to keep us pre-occupied and not worried about the storm. During a Wal-Mart run for those last minute hurricane supplies, I happened to pass the Halloween aisle. Now you tell me...could you pass this one up?!

Almost finished...

We got the news today. We will be going for our introduction to our new home officially on Friday, Sept. 12th @ 3 PM. This is the first step to closing on the home. During this walk-thru, its my understanding, we will be looking for blemishes, scuff-marks, generally any flaws or things we would like repaired.
Today, while visiting the house, I got a couple of pictures of the outside. Hope you enjoy. More pictures of the interior are coming soon.

Baby Baptism

Caleb had his Dedication/Baptism today. He was a wonderful little boy. Not one tear when Pastor Ken held him in front of the congregation.
Thank you to Tia (Aunt Sharon), Uncle Jim, Aunt Sue, Uncle Ron, Laurie, and James for joining us.

Will work for Buh-buhs

Its been a long summer to say the least. Over the past two months, we've been living with relatives while we wait for a place to live. We've really had to stick to a close budget. Tammy and I have even had to cut back on our meal portions. Extreme times call for extreme meaures.


On a serious note, the Hannah's are two weeks away from closing on our new home. And as for cutting back on meal portions, we've been on Weight Watchers now for the past 6 weeks. Hehehe.



The house is actually further along than this picture. Come back tomorrow for updated pictures of the house and to see what outfit Caleb wears to his Dedication.

The Battle has been lost!!!

Ever since we first found out we were gonna have a baby, I made it a point to raise this baby in an "Elmo-Free" home. Over the past 10 years, this little red "Grover-wanna-be" has taken over the Sesame Street we, the children of the 70's, and 80's grew up with. *sigh* After doing some work at a Toys R Us, I noticed the newest toy coming out next month. ELMO Live. So of course after the past 10 years and the popularity of the "Tickle me" series of Elmo dolls, and seeing Caleb's face light up while watching Sesame Street one morning, I knew the Battle to keep an "Elmo Free" existance had been lost. By the way, don't tell him, but his Mommy and Daddy have already reserved the "Elmo Live" for Christmas. How can you deprive this precious little bundle of joy?!

Trick or treat...Lets go for a ride.

Today was a good day for Caleb. Today he got to see his Halloween outfit Mommy picked out for him while he was still "in the oven".






Also, since he was just a little guy we have had a stroller, that his Mimi and Poppie got for him. But he was just too little to go for a ride. Well, today after "trying it on for size" we went for our first of many rides around the block. Now if he could only reach the steering wheel while in the seat.








This one is our favorite! Look at that smile!
