Hazel is a Busy Busy Girl

Life as we know it revolves around Hazel. Keefe has returned to work and I return to work next week. Keefe will watch Hazel during the day and I will watch her when I get home. We feel very lucky that we both will get to spend so much time with Hazel. Since talking about work is not very fun, I will tell you about Hazel- she is VERY fun!
After spending two weeks at her Grandma and Grandpa Fillerup's house, Hazel returned home. If you look at these photos you can see just how fast she is growing! Yesterday we went to the Doctor and they weighed her in at a shy 9 pounds!!! Wow! 


Aunt Bert and Cousin Ellie came for a visit. It was such a nice day we decided to take our babies on a walk around the park. Hazel slept the whole time. We are looking forward to nicer weather when Hazel is older so that we can go to the park more often.


Hazel is a smily baby! Every morning and afternoon we do exercises on the floor. First we work our legs and arms, and then if we are doing good after that we do tummy time! Hazel does an army crawling motion with her legs, but has yet to learn how to get anywhere.




Hazel got all dressed up for church on Sunday. I even managed to put a bow on her head. 



Hazel smiles really big sometimes! It is hard to get a clear picture of her doing it though because she moves so fast with all her excitement. She has a cute dimple on her right cheek. Yeah!


Today I put Hazel in my favorite outfit of hers, candy striped onesie with pink pants! Hazel really really likes stripes!  


Christmas Vacation!


We spent two weeks during December at Keefe's family's home in Cody, Wyoming! It is always a good time with all the family there!

We woke up really early on Christmas morning to see what Santa had dropped off for us! Hazel loves her Grandma Judy!


Little cousin Mees was not quite sure what to think of all the presents, but he caught on real quick!


What is Christmas without Fritzy Dog! 


Grandma Judy made everyone these beautiful stockings- each with a unique style and broach!


Hazel got books, blocks, and blankets. She absolutely loved looking at the lights on the Christmas tree!


Mees loved going outside and playing in the snow!!!


Mees and Nynke enjoyed sledding together!


These hoodlums look like the awesomest super hero gang I've ever seen!!!  


Russian Princess Katrina and Keefe (aren't those goggles supposed to be over his eyes?) having too much fun! It's hard being awesome!


Thanks Fillerups, Stewarts, Milloys, and Watsons for making this such a fun trip for us all! It was so nice to have so much of the family at home!
