Cookie decorating

We had a pizza making/cookie decorating party with some friends. Hardly any pizza got eaten, and not a ton of icing made it onto the sugar cookies, but handfuls of sprinkles were consumed during the process.

The frosting got left to me and my frumpy shirt that apparently could not be bothered to be pulled down.

All By Myself!

Out of nowhere she has started dressing herself, collecting the cereal, bowls, milk and spoons for Hazel and herself at breakfast and cleaning up the dishes after meal time to drop in the sink. And now that she can do it, it is mandatory that she do it ALL by herself because she can.

The big sister helper.

Imagination

There are definitely little girl imaginations running rampant through this house. Cleaning up toys is nearly impossible so instead we embrace the food scattered around the house to feed the hungry animals and fill up the shopping mommy's cart.

All in a day's playtime.

Early Bed Time

Why bed time has been moved up to 6:30 for the past month?

Because when Daddy work late every night and little people start unraveling around 6 it is the only thing that keeps me out of the looneyville.

Tiny Hazel

Almost two years old and still within the weight parameters of the swing.

Love my little Hazel.

Littlest Sister

It is already apparent that Miko is the littlest sister in the house. She is very loved.

 

Quite possibly, a little too loved.

Exhausted

Taking family pictures is exhausting.

Especially when it is 39 degrees outside and your parents force you to smile for 2 and 1/2 hours.
