The dog diary certainly sounds like a day in the life of George....too funny....
Recently we watched the terrific Pixar movie Up! - Robert always tells me how the dog reminds me of George - so sweet, loving, and happy go-lucky! I could not agree more....."I was hiding under your porch because I love you"

In Living Color
For our 2nd Anniversary we purchased a custom illustration of our home by an amazing artist on Etsy Rebekka Seale - check out her shop here. Could not be more thrilled with the beautiful whimsical illustration of Home Sweet Hanna - complete with our first baby George in front...
Originally I planned on putting it in the nursery - but loving seeing it everyday so it has found a home in our family room.
One of the coolest parts (super added value) is that Rebekka sends you not only your custom illustration but a disc with the file and instructions for creating adorable correspondence cards. Love that we can have such a personalized image to share with friends and family - be on the lookout - will be coming to a mailbox near you soon...

Muffindoodles - YUM
During our Big Reveal Brunch we served a new to Home Sweet Hanna dish - Muffindoodles! They are basically a snickerdoodle cookie in muffin form - and 100% delicious. These yummy doodles were so popular that we had zero leftovers.....
I found the recipe on eat me delicious blog. They were fun to make and were a sweet compliment to our savory breakfast spread!
Snickerdoodle Muffins
slightly modified from Culinary Concoctions by Peabody
2 sticks unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp cream of tartar
3/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/4 cup sour cream
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar and 1 TBSP cinnamon mixed together for rolling*
1.Cream the butter and sugar until soft about 3 to 5 minutes. Add in the vanilla, eggs one at a time, and then mix until incorporated.
2.In a separate bowl, mix together your dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, cream of tartar and nutmeg
3.Add the flour mixture and the sour cream alternately to the egg-butter mixture in the additions until fully incorporated
4. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out muffin batter one at a time and drop into a shallow bowl filled with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Roll the muffin around in the mixture until it is covered completely in cinnamon sugar. Place dough into greased muffin tin (I prefer the Bakers Joy spray with flour in it).
5. Bake them for approx. 20-22 minutes in a 350F oven or until they are golden brown.
Happy Baking!

20 Week Ultrasound
Per yesterday's post - It's a GIRL! So exciting!
The ultrasound was amazing - could not believe how detailed the pictures are including the four chambers of her heart - truly incredible! Two pictures to share below -
A friend of mine turned me on to the blog 269 days - a cartoonist diary of her pregnancy - the cartoon about the ultrasound captures our experience as well - Baby Gal Hanna did not want to show off her parts and it took the technician jamming my stomach a few times to have her move into a less modest position....
Let the nesting begin - be on the lookout for nursery updates!
