There are three things I learned about
babies from three wise men!
These techniques help the baby when
they need to go to sleep and need encouragement
to get there!
The first I learned from my brother Cory.
This does not only work for sleep but
calming the baby as well, simply insert
parents finger into baby's mouth.
The second one comes from our bro-in-law
Nate. By taking your thumb or favorite finger
starting at the top of the forehead gently
drag it down to the tip of the nose, repeatedly.
I have also seen him do this from the back of the head
all the way to the tip of the nose. I have
added into this technique softly rubbing
the forehead in a circular motion, when
more is needed.
The third comes from Adrian, who has calming Hannah
down to a science and maybe
this only works for her. But he has a technique
of putting her on one arm and lifting her up
and down with the support of his other arm.

Aunty Jenny came to visit and meet Hannah!
Here is the first picture of her
holding Hannah.
This was the initiation of Jenny with Hannah.
Here she made a special package in her
pants for Jenny. And the shock of oh my
that came from her!
Just a close up of Hannah
Jenny helping give Hannah a bath. And yes
sometimes it does take 3 people to clean
that little one! One to entertain, one to clean
and one to hose her off to keep her warm!
NO Hannah was not for dinner, but she just looks
so tasty!
Hannah is starting to lift her head, and here
she seems pretty happy about it!
We had dinner at Aunt Karon and Uncle Dave's
house the other night. And this was the first meeting
of Hannah and Porter. Porter was happy
to meet her and licked her feet. And he followed
Karon around while she was carrying Hannah, it was sweet!
Hannah decided right when it was time for
me to eat dinner, that she wanted to
eat. And Porter decided he needed
to kiss the back of her head.
Adrian helping Dave make appetizers for dinner,
fresh spring rolls.
Dave checking in on the main dish,
a Vietnamese soup.
As the night when on Porter was
less interested in Hannah and acted a bit
shy around her.
Hannah in her new towel from
the Yaneks! It is so nice and
cozy and warm!
