Oh miss Hazel...

We had such a fun evening eating and then perusing around the Summit in this gorgeous weather. Took a pit stop at the Campus Spirit store where Hazel danced around Aubie wearing an Aubie hat. Then we came home and put on our big girl "britches" (as Alex calls them) for the first time. She was so proud. She was full of hilariousness tonight.

Hazel: Mommy, need ie-ceem (ice cream) peeese.
Me: Sorry, the ice cream store is closed we can't go there tonight.
Hazel: Mommy, have key?

Not a bad point. I mean, why wouldn't I have a key to open the ice cream store?

Then right before bed I was vacuuming and when I finished Hazel clapped for me and said, "Good job, mommy. Yaaay. Awesome." If only all chores were celebrated with such a jubilant cheer :)


When she grows up she probably will not be happy that I posted this picture of her in her "lil'est pets big girl britches" :)

As it should be.

If only all CEO's were this cute.

Thanks dad.

Only a daddy would let their child pick up a pinching crustacean in the grocery store. I think Hazel might agree.

What a wonderful day!

Our sweet Emmylou came to visit for a much needed and much overdue visit. To see her sweet smiling face was such a delight. The "glow" she has these days made us all smile. She was a baby whisperer putting little E sound asleep and Hazel asked about "Emmy-woo" several times after she left. OH how we wish she lived closer so we could hug her more often!
