Here are a collection of pictures of Miss Widget from November 2002. She's gone beyond mastering walking to being able to run full tilt, spin around in circles, jump if someone holds her hands, and she loves going for walks at least as much as she loves reading her books. She loves to help arond the house, trying to "clean". She imitates what she sees the adults doing, and especially loves the feather duster and putting the silverware away when it's time to empty the dishwasher. She's talking a blue streak, and picks up a new word or two almost every day. She's just learned about "no" and what it means, and she's trying it out when you ask her to do something. So far it's cute, we'll see how long that lasts. She's also very much at the point where she knows what she wants to do, and heaven help you if you tell her she can't do it. She screams, runs around in circles and falls over yelling. It's actually pretty funny to watch, provided we're not out in public.

| This bunch of files is Hannah mugging for the camera and showing off her legos. She loves playing legos - she's about gained the dexterity to pull them apart and put them back ogether, and she loves taking apart the creations we build for her. | |

| Hannah is interested in learning how everything works these days, and the camera is no exception. These would be early self portraits as Daddy showed her how the camera works. Now when she takes pictures, she's very excited to see what ever she's taken show up on the screen of the camera. | |

| One day a week or so ago, I came into Hannah's room in the morning to find that she'd figured out how to unzip and (mostly) remove her sleeper suit. Daddy got some pictures to embarrass her with when she's older. Later that same week, she not only removed the sleeper, but diaper as well, making a big mess for Daddy to clean up. | |

| These last two pictures are Hannah all dressed up to go play outside in the cold. Not sure why, but she decided she needed her baseball cap on over her snowsuit hood. Kids are just weird, I think. | |
