Hannah @ 12

I can't handle all of these babies of mine growing up.  In a matter of two months we celebrate three birthdays.

On January 1st, Hannah girl turned twelve years old.  Twelve.  On the verge of being a teenager 😳  She's at that stage where she's becoming more independent and needs us less and less.  Yet, she still needs guidance in a lot of areas and loves to play with her brothers and friends.  Like play - play doh and American Girl dolls.

She's getting taller and more and more beautiful with each passing day.  Hannah is a blessing to me when it comes to her younger brothers, she's especially helpful with Amos & Shiloh.  Our biggest arguments stem from her lack of motivation in keeping her bedroom clean (she's worse than the boys!)

She's still just as artistic and loves to draw, knit and work on coding.  But her interests have expanded to include herpetology.  She saved all of the money from my parents + her birthday money and bought the aquarium and supplies for a bearded dragon.  So our gift to for her birthday was the actual dragon.  She wants to go to college for herpetology (for the moment) and work at a zoo.  I love how diverse she is with her interests!
