Hannah Elizabeth Stidham

2 months old October 2003

David and I married in June of 2002.  In July 2003 Hannah was born.  She was 5 weeks early so she weighed in at 4 pounds 9 ounces.  She was so tiny and yet so beautiful.  She will be 8 this summer and oh how she has changed our lives....  She now weighs in at just under 30 pounds and is about 3 feet tall.  She has an amazing sense of humor, is very strong willed, has a dazzling smile and oh, did I mention Down syndrome?!? 






July 2004

 She is currently taking a hip hop class at Break the Barriers thanks to Grandma Bev and Grandpa Bill .  She is quite a dancer!  She is often 1 step ahead or 1 step behind but by golly the steps are right! Remember the sense of humor I mentioned?  Well that sense of humor is one of the reasons that this blog was started.  She is so funny that I often find myself about to pee my pants...  This story did go out on facebook but it is worth mentioning again....






One evening at dinner Hannah was saying something as she is always talking!  I couldn't quite understand her so I asked her to repeat herself.  This is what she said... "I am talking to Sheldon on my facebook!" I asked; "who is Sheldon?"  To which she replied ever so seriously.... "My husband"  Well, you can imagine my shock since I wasn't invited to the wedding.  It took us several days to figure out who Sheldon was... we even enlisted the help of her IEP team after her most recent IEP meeting.  Come to find out it is Dr. Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory on CBS... At least she likes the brainy ones!!
