Yesterday Hazel turned two! It seems like only yesterday...
I love my sweet baby girl. I have such mixed feelings about her not being a baby anymore, but it is so much fun to see her personality emerging the more she grows.
Sometimes when it's late at night and all of our children are sleeping, Joey will steal Hazel out of her crib and put her in our bed for a while to cuddle with her. I know that he is enjoying his sweet little baby because she is our last.
Making this cake reminded my of why I usually BUY the cake. Hazel was so good at blowing out the candle.
Happy Birthday
I love how bored and depressed we all seem in the background. For the last month I've been teaching Hazel to say, "I'm TWO!"
I\'m Twoooooo!
This morning we watched a History Channel special that we got from Netflix: The True Story of Alexander the Great. It was very long and definitely made for adults but it was still a very good visual and review. Near the end of the show Luke, Isabel and Sylvia ran off and did some cross dressing...naturally.
We then went to the park. The park was deserted and while I was reading my book on a blanket a couple of cops started walking across the field towards me. My kids gathered around. The cops said that they were concerned about my safety since they saw someone (me) over here on a blanket. They left...weird. A few hours later I found out from Sylvia that she had been over near the parking lot hiding in the trees when the cops pulled up. They asked her something but she ignored them. In her words, "I think they said some Spanish to me." No wonder they came over to see if everything was alright, there was a crazy wild mute kid hiding in the trees. Thanks Sylvia, I thought CPS had finally found me.
Who uses book rings??? I do! I am still not sure what most people use them for, but here are a few ways that I've used them and I'm coming up with more ways. (my kids think they are fun bracelets.)
